Spring Striped Bass

The "perfect fish" for fly rods

Yep. Tom Rosenbauer himself praised this fish as the “perfect fish” for fly rods, and I totally see where he’s coming from. These fish put up a fantastic fight, they eat greedily, and when the “schoolies” are in thick, they aren’t hard to find. They’re beautiful and can grow to a decent size. Aside from all that, I appreciate their wildness. They’re a cool fish, and they’re worth the time you spend chasing them while they’re visiting. In this post, I’ll share what I know and how I catch these fish!
