Tight Lines - Fly Fishing Succonnesset Shoal

Under overcast skies and a fairly strong northeast wind Trout Unlimited member Pete Sterndale demonstrated he does in deed know how to handle a fly rod. We caught several nice bluefish off of Popponsett (New Seabury, Mashpee MA) before making the rounds of several other locals in search of bass. We finally found them feeding on squid in the rip at Succonessett shoal. I kept the boat positioned at the edge of the rip while Pete cast into the rip line, often to stripers busting on squid. Caught seven or eight bass, two of which were keepers. For more pictures see and a look at the fly see
