Milkfish are the hardest to get to eat and one of the toughest to land, no teeth
Inshore I like big bones
Omilu, bluefinned trevally are abundant and great fighters
Ahi this size are fun on a flyrod, big ones suck and I don't care what Silverfly dreams of
I have not caught a sailfish yet, but that is on the list
Happy New Year to all
If things work out we might be back on CI in April, first group, keeping our fingers crossed.
Cool article Don! I've caught titan triggers, yellowmargin triggers, Napoleon wrasse, spangled emperors, and long nose emperors. Most are a challenge to feed a fly and Napoleon wrasse are super powerful. I would love to have shots at some blue bastards down in Australia! I've generally overlooked parrotfish, except bumphead parrotfish, and will give them more casts on the future.Dime check out this story I found on flylords. I have caught triggers and they are fun, but they like to go into their hole and then it is over. The guy catches long nosed emperors and we call them sweetlips on Christmas Island but he catches some other sweetlips in the Indian Ocean and Red Sea. Albula don't read the article you won't like it, the guy is holding fish.Top 13 Underrated Saltwater Species to Target on Fly - Flylords Mag
If we look at Saltwater Fly Fishing, we should realize that it is starting to be kind of an old thing. Despite the tackle market is becoming more and more technical, the Internet is also helping anglers learn virtually anything about any destination.

THE MIRACLE OF BIRTHOk Ok, it seems as if some folks don't know just how amazing surf perch really are....
And grilled make tasty tacos…I'm sure a few folks on here will tell me I'm wrong, and I honestly haven't done this fishery yet... but I know a handful of people who have gone after makos and all say it's rarely as exciting as the videos and pictures make you think. You basically sit around with a chum slick waiting for one you're interested in targeting to swim up. Once they eat, you let them run and eventually drive the hook home. It's mostly just a slog to get them in and not the 50mph flips you see on youtube. At least not as commonly as you'd think.
When I asked two of my good buddies if they'd do it again or would recommend me going, both emphatically said "definitely not."
As far as my favorite saltwater fish on a fly rod, I really, really like dorado. They just have it all, and the fight never lasts so long it becomes a chore. They're a great size, have spectacular aerials, and don't sound/dive down deep.

actually, very true....it's also a workout....They abolutely have a spot on my list. Red tails might not be huge, jump, or provde visual eats. BUT, they're aggressive, fight hard, are beautiful, and delicious. I think the best part though, is experiencing and trying to figure out the surf as fly fishing venue. There's a lot more going on than what one see's at first glance. Beautiful fish in a beautiful place. What's not to like?
