Saltwater fly fishing
Saltwater fly fishing is a type of fishing that involves using a lightweight rod and a specialized line to cast artificial flies—lures that mimic the appearance of baitfish or other creatures—into saltwater environments like oceans, bays, and estuaries. Anglers seek a variety of species, including tarpon, bonefish, and striped bass, which are known for their fighting spirit. This method requires skill in casting and technique, as it often takes place in windy conditions and requires stealth to approach fish in shallow waters. Enthusiasts appreciate the challenge and connection with nature that saltwater fly fishing offers.
