Well, excuse me, but "down jersey" tactics, even record setting
"down jersey" tactics, don't necessarily qualify as *fly fishing*
in my book.

Also, fishing a tiny porkrind minnow, wet with one very small split
shot,
is a very effective way to dredge plate-sized "Calico Bass" (Crappies)
in
deep heavy structure (pilings, sunken forest etc..)

Never could see crappie fishing with a fly rod. I use ultra-light
spinning gear, 2 lb. test and a 1/32 oz. bucktail jig. Way better
than a fly rod in my not so humble opinion.

You know of course that Jesus was known to use worms particularly after a
heavy rain, right?
