its worth a shot, there might be someone who comes across it at a yard sale or something because as you said, its not something most fishermen down there use.
I used to fly fish for bream many many many years ago (70'-80's) and all my rods rotted in the garage. I went to wallyworld to buy a new one (remembering I used to buy them for like $20 and popping bugs were like 50 -75 cents each) and holly molly I was floored by the prices. needless to say I decided getting back to that hobby was something more then I wanted to or could afford to spend. I had hoped to start fly fishing the marsh but I cant afford the prices of the gear costs.
I actually had went offshore with one of my few remaining rods and caught blue fish on them and that was a real blast until that rod snapped from old age too. most people just don't know how different if feels to catch things on a fly rod. its just something completely different that is hard to explain. its not just fishing with a different kind or style of rod, its something you cant explain and it must be experienced to really understand.
do you use regular swim baits on unweighted hooks or actual flies to fish with?
