Does any one know if there are any fly shops in the Ft. Myers area?

Wow! Bearsden and saltwaters edge are up in my neighborhood. I'm surprised there are no well stocked shops in the area. Thanks for the info. Flyrdr9

First pomp on the fly today. It hit a #4 tan/white SF clouser while cruising the Banana river flats. These little bastards have been pissing me off for the last 3 years. A little payback felt good.

Last post

This fish was stupid enough to stop and give me a shot.

I love the stupid ones and also fish too. :D

I tie a super-sized version for SI. 6 long, and tied on a #4/0 Tiemco 600SP. This is my favorite fly, but it's pretty useless anywhere other than the jetty. Olive over yellow, Chartreuse over white,...

Perfect day, uncooperative redfish forced us to seek other means of entertainment. Found several schools, caught several fish. All on a #4 clouser in root beer/white.

Lol! Just one question, why are you underlining? You like the TS-350 too much?

Overlining your rod could help out your casting. Less line to load the rod, and thus less stress on you!
