The thrill and exhilaration that was the characteristic of freshwater bodies in days of yore has now extended to salt water fish. Since the past half century fly fishing has become somewhat of an elitist sport and it has spread through Europe and the Americas. Most of the sports men decide to wear their hip length waders and fish from close to the river banks or the shores of the lakes while some prefer to go out in boats with their fly fishing tools.

When considering saltwater fishing the angler has two choices. One is to find an area on an island or near a densely vegetated part of the sea shore or go out in a boat to a place he / she knows big game is lurking. When I involves salt water fly fishing one can be assured the prey they seek will be huge. And given that water covers over 75% of the world there is no dearth of saltwater fish to angle or the number of places to fish.

So far as salt water fishing is concerned, you should study and understand the effect the tides have on the fish. The temperature and the clarity of the water are affected by the tides. These are two of the critical factors to be considered when fly fishing. Let's take an example. Fly fishing in an inland lagoon or a bay means the tides needs to be utilized to consideration, if the tide is draining from the lagoon or bay the larger fish will be feeding on the tiny fish that have been swept into the water body by the tide. Try your luck fishing away from the mouth of the creek, you'll be happily surprised.

Some information about geography will tell you that tides rise and fall once every 12 hours. Since salt water fly fishing is done in shallow waters (if you need relatively smaller fish) you know that fishing during the times when the tides have ebbed. This is the time the fish will be feeding among the vegetation and the smaller fish that swim near the surface.

Most of the salt water fisherman choose to fly fish in the shallow waters near the shore, or from a boat a small way out in the ocean where bigger game offer more excitement. This is known as 'inshore fishing'. The game that may be pursued during 'inshore fishing' include striped bass, bluefish, flounder, channel bass, bonito and barracuda among many others.

Another form of saltwater fly fishing is deep water fishing. This is an even very complicated type fly fishing. Normally deep water fly fishing is pursued in waters which are deeper than 12 feet. Fly fishers usually fish in deep salt waters from boats than can range in length from 50 feet to 10 feet, this is fast gaining interest among the fly fisher community worldwide.
