I’ve never flyfished saltwater but, based on my very limited knowledge, if I was looking to fish from a kayak I’d probably put in at the Lynnhaven Inlet boat ramp off of Shore Drive and fish back inland. Puppy drum and trout would be your main species to target but this past winter may have put a hurt on the trout populations. Back Bay would also be a decent option although that’s more freshwater fishing than salt.
It was still cold when I went and it really was not a fishing trip. I mostly did some surveillance and pick the brains. From what I gathered, you need a boat or kayak to really do good. Rudee inlet and lynhaven area are full of fish. Redfish, flounder, tautog, black bass, cobia, speckled trout, etc. Should be kicking off after the storm this week lol.
I agree with you. I don’t like crowds. I wish I can find a trout stream on a extremely rigorous hike so I can be there alone. Urban fishing in a city is crazier. I heard nothing but horror stories this past weekend because the Shad finally showed up. I don’t have a boat or kayak so I’m out of luck, but if i did I probably would of went home after seeing a crowd.If you do please take a few pictures and post back onto the thread. I can't tell you the places I suggested are the best places to fish or that you're gonna catch a bunch but they were pretty secluded. I have a habit of looking for places where there aren't a bunch of people fishing. Sometimes this results in my fishing where there aren't many fish but I've been satisfied with the trade off for a long time now. It's not that I'm antisocial, not at all, sometimes it's cool to be around others even when fishing. I've met some great people through fishing but I've had a few come along that ruined my day too. The older I get the more inclined I am to seek solitude. I guess that once I get so old that I have to be concerned that there's no one around in case I need help I'll quit fishing
