“Can you hear me?” calls an Australian accent from behind me as another White River jon boat comes roaring past us at 8am. I quickly picked up my SA Bass Bug fly line and shoot another cast to the outside seam of a run that rides adjacent to a bank...

Although some big game species may require specialized rigging, striped bass, bluefish, bonito, false albacore, weakfish, redfish, snook and many other small to medium inshore species don’t call for anything terribly complicated.
