...ever catch 5+ lb. trevally (jack crevalle) on a flyrod?
They are, essentially, a salt water bluegill on steroids.
cheers

I realize how hard Gills fight. They get that flat body sideways and go for
a run. They are such a pain to handle and not very edible to my thinking.
As far as best fish fight I have had so far.... flyrod - or spincasting is a
good sized Bluefish.
When I can afford to put together a good SW rod/reel combo for myself I will
head out to hook a blue on a flyrod!!
I can't wait. Last year I reeled in a whopper (34 inch Bluefish) I didnt get
to weigh him in

on 12lb test light spincasting rod/reel.
It took almost 25 minutes to get him up to the boat!
Totally tangled all the line he kept on stripping out on so many long runs.
I LOVED IT!
