HIT TIDAL CREEKS FOR SPRING’S SCHOOLIE STRIPERS
Up and down the striper coast small tidal creeks etch themselves across the map, snaking their way into the mainland from bays and harbors or even larger bodies of water like Long Island Sound. Early season stripers love to visit these waters and offer a ton of light-tackle catch and release potential.- Bryce Poyer
Video: Tying the Alphlexo Crab Fly
The Alphlexo Crab has become an extremely popular fly pattern for all kinds of flats fishing. This fly was proven on the flats of Alphonse Island (hence the name) in the Seychelles as a permit fly. However, this fly works for just about anything that will eat crabs. Bonefish, striped bass, redfish, and many other species will all have a go at this unique looking crab fly. The video in this blog shows a step-by-step demonstration on how to use our Alphlexo Crab Body Tubing to create this fly.- Bryce Poyer
The Unicorn of the Lake by Chris Angelone
If you ask any fisherman about what keeps them fishing, a huge part of it is usually related to the mystery of it all. The unknown. The fact that you never really know what exactly it is that's going to end up on the end of your line next. As anglers we always seem to have this internal hope that our next bite is going to be the largest of a certain species, or it could just be that rare "unicorn" fish that you were after. For us, that fish was a rare albino Channel Catfish. It's not always about that, but these are often the days that we remember the most.- Bryce Poyer
2020 Season Wrap-Up: Looking back, and looking ahead.
Looking back, I think it’s safe to say that 2020 certainly won’t go down as one of the best years in the history of the world. What started off as a refreshing start to a new year quickly changed as COVID reared it’s ugly head in late winter.- Bryce Poyer
For Late Fall Action: Diamonds Can't Be Beat
With the fall blitz in full swing as we enter November, anglers are heading to the surf both day and night to battle migrating stripers that, we hope, won’t let up until sometime after Thanksgiving. While many think of late bass explosions as concentrated in the suds, there’s another run of bass a bit further off the beach that sees the linesiders carving through vast schools of sand eels that stay outside the wash- Bryce Poyer
