Handyman Bruce gave me a lesson Wensday
Handyman (Bruce) and I made our weekly fishing trip Wednesday, and he was red hot with the long rod.
We did some wade fly fishing in the Barnegat Bay and he hooked up on 2 stripers and 4 blues and missed some more strikes.
I on the other hand had one of them days when your all thumbs. I had 3 blues and missed as many strikes. Clouser flies were the fishes choice that day in chartreuse or white.The wind was just right and the fish were cooperating. It was a great time.
Also I got to see one of the coolest things I've seen in saltwater. As you waded you could see baby flounder on the bottom. They were no bigger then 1 1/2" round. As you would get close they would shoot out along the bottom and find a safer spot to settle down. What a cool sight of nature at it's greatest. There were also Osprey searching in flight for food in the water. I never did see it find any and dive under the water for anything.
