Rockfish on the fly at Albion Open 8/10/13

Bio-Bill I kayak fly fish and what weight rod did you use

Great report!  I have a friend in Washington who regularly catches coho on a fly off his skiff.  When the hot bite was on  off Doran, there was bait on the surface and an occasional fish slashing thru them.  Maybe ?

Very cool! Thanks for posting.
I found them Sunday morning, big blues that fought like crazy on my light conventional gear. It was a hoot and I can easily imagine how much fun it would be on the fly.

It was cool watching you having fun casting to them. Way to go. 

Thanks for the tip Jim. I'll have to get one of those posters for my cubicle.

I was using an 8 foot long rod rated for between 300 and 400 grains. It says it is an 8-10 weight on the rod. I was throwing a 10 weight shooting head.

Sweet Bill. Your excitement was contagious. Glad I was there b
