Two years of grinding and multiple gut wrenching g lost fish, it was incredible to finally beach one. I think my mistake was gravitating so hard towards clousers- quite literally the only fly I threw for two seasons. I saw a picture of the contents of a striper stomach and noticed a bunch of baby weakfish. Tied up a weakfish pattern deceiver and hooked up the next time I went out.
To top it off, I’m nearly 100% sure I met Jon Bellion in the parking lot. Lmao

Great fish, great story. Congrats!
Congrats dude!
Hell yeah 🤙 congrats!
Nice! I’m hoping to get out and do the same after the holidays. The big ones are in my local waters right now
Congrats that’s a nice fish! I’m still trying to get my first on the fly but it’s been a bad year in the north east!
Must feel good! What line did you use?
What state are you in?! Just had my first season at them in New England this summer and struck out from shore. It’s tough.
Nice! They’ve long left my home waters… after Christmas I’ll really be pining for summer
Congrats! Where are you located? What size line?
Pretty reels in salty sand will always make me wince. Great fish!
