Sight casting to a fish that size must be out of this world

Actually, sometimes you will find much larger fish, while sight-casting here on the NE salt flats, especially ocean-facing beaches...stripers in the 30lb range. They are very difficult to get, though...you will get long follows, often until your leader touches the rod tip. However, you need only one caught...and it could be the fish which will make your year! :-) The pictured fish is an average fish from my local spot. The chase never ends...nor the thrill.

Sweet! A little smaller and those would absolutely slay the surf perch I have out here.
