Title: Mazeppa and Surrounds
Post by: Dennis1984 on January 28, 2014, 09:33:46 AM

Hi All,
 
Has anybody had any luck around Mazeppa and the estuary at Kob Inn.
 
What species, locations and flys did you use.
 
I will be taking my 9wt outfit with intermediate and spare sinking & floating lines.
 
Relatively new to saltwater flyfishing so any help would be welcomed and appreciated! :tkx:
 
Regards

I know artificial anglers have had good success there before, havent heard much about fly though.

Howsit Dennis,

There was a great write-up on Kob flies in one of the Fly mags a month or 2 back !

I'll see if i can find it and scan it in

In that case have a go with some clouser minnows, 2-tone colours, anything mixed with pearl white (Green, Chartreuse, blue or pink) will def get a Leerie or 2 then. Could be springer and kob which will take the clousers, or crazy charlies in a natural pattern.
