Thread: fly rod action this morning .

That had to be a great time with a fly rod. Were the fish up shallow? I need to try a few with the skin on next trip. Do the fillets tend to roll when fried?

THEY WILL CURL ON YOU BUT THE SKIN TASTE GREAT . I USUALLY TAKE 30 OR LESS HOME . BY THE TIME YOU SCALE AND TAKE HEADS/GUT THEN TO FILLET THEM IS DOUBLE WORK . LOL GLAD I HAVE TO MOW TOMORROW !

Make a few cuts across the skin and they want roll.
