Thanks!

Thanks! I’d say just try to find the sand, I know that’s where you’ll likely find the sea robin, and wherever there’s sea robin, there will typically be fluke nearby. Definitely recommend using at least intermediate sinking line as well. But sometimes it’s all about being in the right place at the right time. Tight lines.

Thank you man I’ll give it ago tommorow!

@@FelixMerm-rf9hr Hammering stripers is a great “problem” to have imo man, I’m a refined expert in getting skunked whenever I target them in CT 😂

I’ll have to check that out, I’ve heard of some big fish being caught down that way.

@@theavidsportsman9490 It’s a hell of a walk either way, especially in waders, but I hear it’s totally worth it

Thank you for the kind words

Thank you! Got lucky with that arrow deflection

Can never go wrong with them! Thanks!

Thank you!

Thanks man, was an unforgettable one!

Where in Ct is this, I live in Litchfield County, I've seen some big deer out here. Congratulations.

Thank you! This was in North Stonington. I’ve heard yall have big deer up there.

Thank you for subscribing and the kind words. It’s a simple psuedo hair baitfish pattern. Would be happy to make a video on how to tie it if you wish.

Was working the 9 wt for this video

Thank you!

Thank you!

Appreciate the kind words!

Thank you!

Thanks! That's a big doe, this one weighed about the same. Loving the saddle so far, definitely a game changer. This was on private land in Madison.

Hello Ben, unfortunately I do not live in Tampa anymore, but if you reach out to me on instagram (@the_avid_sportsman) I'd be more than happy to share some spots with you that you can easily access and catch fish at.

Good luck!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks!

Tampa

This rod was a 9 wt

@@theavidsportsman9490 meanwhile I’m about to try it with a 2wt

This was north of the Skyway Bridge, but most of the flats around the skyway hold fish and are pretty accessible.

Thank you, hard for fish to resist it.

Thank you!

Thanks!

This was in St. Petersburg

Tampa Bay

Hell yeah man, congrats. Look forward to seeing the video 👌

Thanks! That sucks, I’m fortunate it enough that it happened with this doe and not a buck. Good luck this season!

Thanks

Thank you!

They were definitely on the bigger side

Any inshore rod will do, I personally use a Star Rod LITE, but there’s a great variety of rods that will work. I’d recommend a reel size of 4000, it will be able to handle pretty much anything you may run into on the flats. I like daiwa reels, like the BG. Just make sure you don’t dunk it, Daiwa isn’t the best at sealing their reels, and they typically don’t last long if they’re dunked in saltwater.

Not too many of us around lol

Caleb Sorenson this is a good time for it, fish are munchin

@@theavidsportsman9490 good fishing from shore? I always can eventually figure it out but its normally the end of the trip

Caleb Sorenson yeah typically in the winter fish will hold up in deeper holes around the flats. I usually find the flats on google maps.

@@theavidsportsman9490 dude thank you. I am excitedddddd.

@@theavidsportsman9490 subscribed to you.Check me out if ya want, working on some stuff probably gonna start it next june.

Craig Vohwinkle I was using the pattern I tie in this video: czcams.com/video/7DPUFcTaMdc/video.html basic shrimp fly, fairly simple to tie.

Ryan Drew thanks man! It’s an awesome spot for sure!

TheWoodsman thanks dude!

@@theavidsportsman9490 what part of the state do ya hunt? I'm down near Waterbury/Watertown

This was my hunt from September this season : czcams.com/video/U1QVUieio10/video.html

TheWoodsman this is a property in Durham, my primary spot.

Albertine Davis very much so

@@theavidsportsman9490 You are so good, the video map should put your photos, and there must be many many people watching. Love your video

Definitely one of my favorites as well!

For the most part blind casting. Sometimes I'll be able to see a patch of sand in front of me and cast over it, but I won't specifically see the fish on it.
