Recommendations for Stripers/Blues
« on: May 17, 2011, 01:58:41 PM »
I can't decide what kits to buy.  I'm fishing from MA shore primarily for Stripers/blues.  These are going to be my first attempts at putting wooden lures together, but I'm a long time fly tier/ rod builder.
What are everyone's top 6 preferences/recommendations?
