Fuck yes! Fuck yes x100. I love stripers, and I just this past season found the love of fly fishing. Hoping next year I can put a few stripers on the beach with the fly. What is your rod and reel set up?
what part of the USA are you in? I mean a rough idea – not asking you tell me your favoured fishing spots – lol!. It looks amazing. We fished out of Boston Harbour with Wayne Frieden it was some day we had! ….
Your casts look good. Spin fishing or fly fishing all my barbs are crushed. Better for the fish and when it happens you stick yourself the hook backs out without tissue damage.
Have you tried Skagit casting techniques? I use Skagit Commando heads from OPST and a Sage RPLxi 890-5. I am always leery of overhead casting with large heavy flies and sink tips. They always droop on the backcast and wreck the forward cast. Depends on wind etc. I surf fish with Skagit so I don't have to always look behind or false cast to change direction. Single motion 70 ft casts with very little effort. I don't have any monetary affiliations with products mentioned. Great videos.
Looks like a Burk's Hot flash minnow – Orvis sells them they are a nice bunker imitation. It's a little different though yours has a pinkish underbelly and green on top. The one I have is dark bluish on top with silver white underbelly
Love the channel, lots o good stuff on here. One little thing you might change on your fly fishing setup before you get into your 20 lb'er. Switch your reel to left handed so you can keep the rod in your right hand after hooking up. No more need to switch hands, works just like a traditional spin setup…rod in right hand at all times.

would an 8 wt rod work for stripers?

amazing saltwater fly action!
Why do you touch the water on every false cast?
