Been able to get out and use it?
I was able find a remote strip of beach last Sat with my sons. I tried out the fly; my sons fished Gulp Camo Sandworms. They caught a total of 7 Barred surfperch, I was skunked. So I am re-thinking the fly pattern. I liked the way it fished along the bottom, consistently hook up. I liked the tail; It provided a visible hot and kept its shape well. I want to try it again using different body colors.
