Here's one you guys will like! Eight miles off Palm Bch. on a glass calm day,

I found acre sized schools of skipjack tuna in the ten to fifteen lb. range feeding on what looked like dolphin fry, fish no more than one inch long.

They wouldn't touch anything larger than that. Going to the smallest thing in my box, a little white and blue glass minnow fly worked like a charm and I managed to get four. It being a saturday, I had quite a few bait draggers come in on the action, but not one of them could get hooked up.They must have been pulling their hair out! Being in the middle of action like that with a fly rod and beating the conventionals is a great feeling. See you out there!
