Striped Bass fishing we're mixing it up on the fly and ultralight on PEI!!

In this video I went out for two different morning sessions for a few hours each time. I had decent luck but a fair amount of small fish. i targeted a new area with the medium light rod and found a couple bigger fish on the topwater as well. hope you guys enjoy some of the action!

Great video Mackenzie! You sure show how versatile you can be to catch these beauties! So many areas to explore on PEI, it's very exciting to where one might find them!

[@MackenzieSapier]

Thanks a lot Brody!! Your right there is just so much damn water in this place I bet we have only just scratched the surface! Much more exploring to do! How exciting

[@aldenhuang]

psyched to see striped bass routinely now

[@MackenzieSapier]

same here its been so fun!

[@dustin_diamond]

Great footage! I love the fly takes, I gotta get on to them with the fly

[@MackenzieSapier]

Thanks a lot dude yeah I know what you mean it’s so damn fun on the fly have you tried yet?

[@dustin_diamond]

@@MackenzieSapier Not yet! Places ive been going really isn’t suitable for fly unless at peak low tide, might have to go searchin for a flat 🎣

[@ethelmacdonald4214]

Very helpful video! So frustrating when I see them breaking the surface all around me but not touching my bait. I guess that is when I need to try different lures. I do need to get a couple of top water ones for sure.

[@MackenzieSapier]

Thanks a lot! Yes I know exactly what you mean sometimes they will eat anything other times they are just a tad picky haha

[@h2ofilms-freshfrozen989]

Such a simple technique , I am ordering my 8wt this week cannot wait to get out and chase them on the fly!

[@MackenzieSapier]

good luck dude its too much fun haha

[@h2ofilms-freshfrozen989]

He DEFINITELY HAD the advantage of that tide and pinched water . 5 lb bow in fast water is same !

[@MackenzieSapier]

yeah for sure the bows are so acrobatic as well

[@aldenhuang]

[@MackenzieSapier]

yeah have been smashing them on both shore for a few weeks!
