RE:Biggest fish on a fly?
Thats a great story.
My biggest would have to be a 30ish pound king salmon out of the wallace river

RE:Biggest fish on a fly?
My largest fish was a 120 lb sailfish,( the sailfish is my avatar) a 30 lb dolphin and quite a few 80 to 100 lb tarpon.
This is only because I lived in Florida for awhile.

RE:Biggest fish on a fly?
Sorry no pic but I got a 17lb chum on the Quinault River this past fall with my new 8wt rainshadow I built. It worked very well and I hope to do some beach fishing out at Port Townsend...Point no Point.... Bush Point and my favorite, just up from the Keystone Ferry Dock at the park. I gotta start taking my brownie along on my trips! Have a great summer, Steve

Fly Fishing is the art of attaching a fake bug to a line and relying on the appropriate manipulation of the rod to deceive the fish into eating a sharp steel hook covered with feathers and fur.
RE:Biggest fish on a fly?
My biggest thing on a fly rod would be the power lines in my back yard, after snagging them during practice casting. I just got my first fly combo, and i havent been able to fish with it yet. Once rivers and streams start opening up again i will have one on the fly as soon as possible!
