I've been reading some awesome reports lately (ie- Monomoy 7/6/00) and it seems that alot of guys don't even mention using a flyrod in their report. I appreciate the heads up on where you're finding the fish, but are any of these big pigs being caught on flies?? (this is a flyfishing site, right??) Don't mean to **** anyone off, I'm just asking...Thanks

<P><FONT color=black face="Times New Roman,Times" size=3>This is my second season of striper fishing and in the first year I didn't think it was possible to catch a &quot;big&quot; striper on the fly.&nbsp; All I ever got were schoolies.&nbsp; I have learned differently this year having caught 5 Y2K keepers and many more &quot;last years&quot; keepers.&nbsp; I have caught the &quot;last years&quot; keepers in multiple places but have caught all my Y2K keepers off of South Beach in Chatham.&nbsp; The magic flies for me so far have been a crab, a sparse olive/white sand eel, and a gaudy big and flashy chartreuse clouser type sand eel.&nbsp; I don't know what you think of as big but my biggest this year is 35&quot;.</FONT></P>
