Today I fished the A.R. ,for shad, for a couple of hours with an amazing little dude. Miguel Cory is 7 years old and is able to fish an 8wt. with 300 grn line swinging for shad. He casts two handed using alot of water tension to load up the rod almost spay like. but really gets the job done.This is not new, believe it or not this is Miguel's 3rd shad season with a fly rod. He is truly a shad-striper junkie so it is easy for us to get along. Miguel's dad, a Captain on the Qualifier 105 (a long range boat out of San Diego), asked if I could take care of him for part of the morning. We decided to fish for shad on the A.R., he would rather fish for stripers but due to our late start,we settled for "poor mans tarpon". It was pretty slow going but we moved around and finally found a few fish. Miguel landed 3 jacks and we had a great time.
