Fly Fishing Report 5/5/09

Hi everybody, we fished Ninigret inside the park and
then fished the breachway later into the night. At the park we had a nice mild
overcast and very little rain and NO WIND! We fished several places from Grassy
Point, and all the little coves as far as the first cove to the left of the new
boat ramp. No fish, no worms, and we fished hard.
Later the Charlestown Breachway on an incoming tide
showed the same results, no worms and very little fish. The three of us all had
one hook-up apiece, just one all the time we fished. The tide was just great and
all of the fishing conditions where just right except for no fish! All three of
us where using shrimp patterns when we hooked up. We need warm sunny days to get
these worms started. Just standing in the water at both spots felt as though
things where going to start any minute. All of us where using intermediate
lines not full floating lines. Something I’m going to use more this year during
this worm hatch. I did very well last year with this I-Line, an
Airflow 40+ clear WF Belly section, great line. Don't misunderstand, I will still use my floating lines as well.
