    Great fly! I was wondering if you could let me know what model is your UV light. I am in the marketing for a better one to replace my small Loon UV light.

    Sure, my flashlight is called: ULTRAFIRE Black Light UV Flashlight. If you search by name, lots of vendors will come up. Tight lines!

  • @SergioDiazFishing
    @SergioDiazFishingАй бұрын

    These are small Menhaden, also known as bunker or pogies. On Long Island we call them peanut bunker. When they grow to full size, their abundance attracts all kinds of gamefish, whales and sharks near our beaches.

    Hey man I was just wondering if you needed backing for saltwater fly fishing

  • @SergioDiazFishing
    @SergioDiazFishing2 ай бұрын

    Yes, you do. Fly lines are about 90 to 100 feet long, a good size fish like a striped bass, bluefish or false albacore can easily take more than that in a run. Backing extends your line and lets you play the fish. In most saltwater reels you can put 200+ yds of 20 - 30lb backing which for most situations is plenty. Good luck!

    Hey Tom, it depends on the fly, a small shrimp pattern I'll do very short, erratic strips and rod tip down to keep it from getting to high from the bottom. A crab fly which is heaver I'll make slow longer strips to imitate a crab moving along the bottom.

    san diego back bay flats, can see them tailing but they are very spooky but they are use to boats passing them under 10 to 15 to 20 foot but they will still spook away and mostly blind cast and very tricky to sight cast them thats why i use a inflatable boat with a trolling motor to get them.. and we have some good size halibuts up to over 40+ inchs..fun on the fly but if you hook up on a monster on 6wt/7wt you'll be in trouble fighting it but they dont run away they just go back the bottom and you mostly need a bigger set up rod with back bone to yank them off the bottom @@SergioDiazFishing
