I fished in SD a day before a conference a few years ago. Hired a guide, ended up being a gear guy with a box of flies his boss gave him. Luckily I had my own gear and he knew where to go to find fish. It took a bit for us to click, but when it did I caught a bunch and had a good time. He kept wanting me to switch to bait or lures at the beginning when things were slow, but once everything came together he was impressed with how well flies did.
-- fishing the bay was just like fishing chesapeake bay, casting to drop-offs and grass beds. I threw an intermediate line on a 6 wt with small clousers and shrimp flies. Caught yellowfin croaker, sea bass, needlefish, other drum species, and BONEFISH! I wasn't expecting the bonefish and it wasn't sight fishing at all, but they came off structure and grass beds like the others. I'll see if I can find those pictures.
