Another great day with Major Corey Wynn, a great A

Another great day with Major Corey Wynn, a great American, soldier, Green Beret, family man and saltwater fly angler. We caught a couple big cobia today by switching gears to a flat wing hollow fly to imitate bunker. Fish were hanging near bunker schools and got up on the surface in the afternoon. Being ready when the opportunity arises is critical to cobia on fly success, and Major Wynn manages his fly line and readiness state better than anyone I guide. And the dude can cast!!!! Great time watching you stick this cobia on fly! Thank you for your service to our country Corey. Best of luck with your move south. #usarmy #usmilitary #usa usa🇺🇸 #greenberet#cobia #cobiaonfly #flatwingflies #hollowfleye #bobpopovics #chesapeakebay

Another successful day fly fishing for cobia for T

Another successful day fly fishing for cobia for TOTF on Chesapeake Bay!!! Sam, who is an excellent fly angler, got 3 eats on a tough day in beautiful weather. Two came unbuttoned but he landed a nice cobia on an olive eel bunny, which I tied this am before leaving the house: so satisfying for Sam and me! The hook was wrapped in lead wire to give it some weight. All three fish ate that fly. Nice! #flytyingart #flyfishing #flytying #flyfishingvirginia #cobiafishing #cobiaonfly #cobiaonthefly #chesapeakebay #virginiasaltwaterfishing

Popped another cobe on fly today. We are on a goo

Popped another cobe on fly today. We are on a good run. Still getting plenty of follows and no-takers but we are getting our share of cobes to commit. I like to say the pace of cobia fly fishing can be “tarponesque” and the behavior of cobia can be “permitesque”, but the last two weeks have been excellent. Saw 40 today, we got a dozen really good shots, messed up a few but we hit some good casts also. Multiple flies have been productive including an all black eel fly, a black and red musky streamer on a jig fly anfd my small spun deer hair fly. Which is best: IDK??? #cobiafishing #cobiaonfly #cobiaonthefly #flyfishing #tyingflies #saltwaterflyworkshop #saltwater #saltwaterflyfishing #saltwaterfishing #chesapeakebay

Another multiple “cobia on fly” day including

Another multiple “cobia on fly” day including a 50lb class fish on fly we released with the boys from @currentculturefly: Simone and Reid, who each caught their first cobia on fly! Incredibly fun day with colleagues who are also promoting fly fishing in the great state of Virginia. I’m happy to team up with @currentculturefly and look forward to our next adventure! Thanks for your support Simone and Reid! Congrats on a great day!! We also landed some fish on spin but the two fly caught fish were spectacular! Many thanks again to my wonderful mate Baylor. Great job today. #cobiaonfly #cobiafishing #cobia #flyfishing #virginia #chesapeakebay #chesapeakebayfishing #virginiaflyfishing #flytyingart#flytyingbench

Reds have been hit and miss but some nice stripers

Reds have been hit and miss but some nice stripers, white perch and specks here and there have been saving the day. Saw a mink on the beach shoreline just south of the Nansemond River. Dolphin, deer, foxes, coyote, manatee, bear…I’ve seen amazing things on the shore of the James River, but never a mink. Tried to get a pic but he scurried off. Next time now that I know where he lives!!!!!!#stripersonthefly; #striperfishing #whiteperch #speckledtroutonfly #speckledtrout

Catching one cobia on fly is a challenge similar t

Catching one cobia on fly is a challenge similar to tarpon and permit, so multiple cobia on fly is always a great day! Today was a great day!!!! Chris is an excellent and passionate fly angler who slept little last night tying his own leaders and he brought custom tied flies (inspired by musky flies) by @urbanflyco; these flies he affectionately named the “Baylor Bomber” after my always excellent and fun mate Baylor Rinck. Jig hook, double steel eyes, lots of bulk and flash. Not really my style of cobia fly…until today! Congrats to Chris for a kick ass day catching multiple cobia on fly and many thanks to Cathy and Baylor for their sighting abilities and catching cobia on spin. #Cobia#cobiaonfly#cobiafishing #cobia #chesapeakelighttackle #flytyingjunkie#flyfishing #vaflyfishingfestival #flyfishingvirginia #flyfishingchesapeakebay #flytying #flytyingaddict
