My buddy (Globko) and I have been throwing around the idea of hitting spadefish on the fly. They would be killer on a 9 weight. But I'm wondering if anyone else has tried it?

We were thinking of using green crabs flies, which are easy enough to tie. Just modify my old velcrow rubber leg striper special. Or some tan wool drifted into the chum slick.

I assume they'd fight a lot like a permit. animal-smiley-043.gif They sure do fight like sumsabitches on light tackle.

Any thoughts are welcomed.

tight lines,

If I thought about work as much as I think about fishing, I'd be a millionaire.
