How bout this --- fly fishing with *bait* and catching a mess of fish!?
saw an old guy yesterday with a fly rod about 6 and half feet or maybe 7 feet long. he had some mono tied on the fly line...only about 3 feet. no tippet. then on the mono "leader" he had a very little brass hook like a salmon egg hook. He smashed bread on the hook and was fly casting, but only about 10 feet literally right in front of his feet. he was fishing on the shore at a little pool on the river that had small bass and perch.... he was catching left right and center. when the bread got soggy and fell of, he'd just put some more on..... never saw anything like it!
Where have you been? People have been doing this for a while now. I did it to catch a 15 pound Carp using a piece of cinnamon roll out of Round Rock Texas. I've seen a little girl use a fly rod tipped with a live cricket to catch a 2 pound catfish out of a pond in Lockhart Texas. I'd tell you more but you'd go into shock!
Sometimes it's good to think outside the fishing box. ~good luck catchin'.
