Welcome back to the new NEFF. Take a break from Twitter and Facebook. You don't go to Dicks for your fly fishing gear, you go to your local fly fishing store. Enjoy!
Hey Jonboy, Where are you staying and what beaches are you going to fish?. I fished the Catch & Release Contest once and also fished early June one other year. Weather cooperating ,
you should have a good time.
I will be staying in a house on Chappaquiddick. I really can't wait. This should be great...fish all night, sleep all day. I'll have to take lots of pics.
Jonboy,
As far as logisitics are concerned, and from what I recall, the best conditions and action are over at the other end of the island i.e. Lobsterville beach etc. Keep in mind that the Chappy ferry stops running around 11. p.m. If you plan on fishing all night then the ferry schedule isn't important. I haven't fished the other parts of the island at night. Wasque is excellent but the surf can be rough and the wind strong. Lobsterville and Menemsha calm down after sunset. Good luck. The patterns are mostly sand eels
and the smaller the better. Anything I can help you with, give me an e-mail. Joe T. probably has more current advice. I haven't been up there in 3 years and I really miss it.
Thanks a lot cingras, I may email you with a few questions. I really appreciate the info. I will be tying sand eels very shortly. I know I have to keep em sparse!!! Anyway thanks again guys....and Joe- you'll be at your booth Saturday, right? See ya there-
Pardon the interuption. FF and Dennis, are you talking about something in salt water(see Jonboy and cingras53) or what has become known as 'The Gathering' in Roscoe? I kind of got lost somewhere within this thread.
