Hey Aaron...

I am part of growing group of people who flyfish the bay at least once a week...Some guy fish it every morning...

It can be VERY productive at times...We normally fish the area between the wall at 62nd street and the other wall south of that that marks the end of the sand...(just park at 63rd street, walk to the beach in the harbor, and look to your left and right and you will see the two walls I am talking about...

They number one bait here, and the fly patterns that mimic it, are the ghost shrimp...Most bait guys buy or make slurp guns and pull the shrimp right out of the mud as they fish...I have seen LOTS of corbina get landed there...

In the small marina just on the other side of the 62nd street wall, even though we are not supposed to fish, I saw a guy and his two sons last week standing on the wall and pitching baits into the marina, past the top of the wall, and on the other side as well...They were killing them! Big croaker, small corbina, big turbots...I of course, got skunked on my fly!

Also, light line seems to be the ticket in either method...Most of the succesful guys use line no heavier than 6#...

Write me for more info...I am no expert but I am willing to share all I have observed.
