Surf Fly Fishing - Facing the Ocean(Ⅱ)



I fished in Robert Moses in today's early morning and later in Sunken Meadow.
I haven't produced anything yet.
This was my third time trying to fish on the ocean side of Robert Moses.
Today's surf was quite rough, but I got used to casting and retrieving the fly in the crashing waves.
It made me feel like I was actually surf fishing. I will try there again. However, I wish I could catch some fish before I start going to the Point of Sandy Hook, NJ where is my usual late season fishing spot.

Continue being Skunked in this Fall's Saltwater

    
                                                                                                                                                            














I fished in three spots this weekend:  yesterday Robert Moses in the early morning and Sunken Meadow at noon, Jamaica Bay Inlet in today's morning - all skunked.
I haven't caught any decent fish yet since this fall saltwater fishing started.
This is the reality of surf fly fishing for me. I would say the probability of catching any fish is average one in fifth outing.  Though it looks unproductive, the total experience of surf fly fishing including preparation (tying, research, planning and practice etc), fills me up with excitement even more.
