Vlad, just curious what species in the salt that you fish greased line? I love the method because it is a joy to cast! Either weighted or unweighted flies... all fun indeed... The underwater take just add a little bit mystery (zen factors). I am a nymph guy, that is no lie! : )
Stripers in the gentle surf. It is in a way similar to stream fishing, but the dynamics of the tidal current and the wave action make it different...
You cast parallel to the wave and across, and then mend the line. If you have time, check

Kenny Abrames' web site deals with traditional techniques in surf fishing and is fabulous, indeed... Long rods, flatwing flies-steelhead/salmon tecniques in the SWFF form.
Another excellent post... Greased line is beautiful approach, it works in freshwater and in the salt, it is very gratifying way to fish...

Thanks Vlad,
ReplyDeleteThat is one fine website! I love the articles there! No experience in surf fishing at all, but I really want to try it someday!
