Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Taking a spinning rod with me to Fletcher's

Personally id get your self some small spoons from walmart.  Not sure the price this year, few years back i found then for 15 spoons for 5 bucks and i stocked up.  they are so small, i cast them with my 6 weight fly rod for shad.  for a spin rod, might need a bigger spoon since you lack the sinking line.

Thanks,

......this year. I had a day last year where the wind was blowing so hard it was pushing an outgoing tide back up the river. I just sat there watching as spin fishermen kept on casting and catching. Mike Bailey was in the boat next to me and at one point I looked over and just shrugged. So Mike, who has only ever seen me with a fly rod, shouts out to me "hey Bob, nobody's holding a gun to your head making you use just a fly rod".

I now have a nice St. Croix rod and Pfluger reel (wanted a Stradic but the damn bail whacked my knuckles), now I need some darts.

What sizes are good for Fletcher's? I'll be setting up a tandem rig like I've seem the masters using.

Thanks, Bob (who is now only 90% pure but looking forward to feeling like a kid again tackle-wise)
