The entire crew on the Gamefisher2
are skilled fly fishing guides that
enjoy this sport more than any other
type of fishing. Fly fishing for
billfish is without a doubt the best
bite in the business! It is an
adrenaline rush to see a "lit up
Sailfish" race in close and snatch
the fly.
The crew encourage even novices to
the sport, making it fun and
relatively easy to master the
technique.
Of course the
ultimate challenge for
the serious billfish angler is to go
for the blue marlin bite and release
on the fly. (Tournament

The average shooting head is 30 feet. We cut it back to 15 feet. Most
running lines are 50 feet or more.
We cut it back to 40 feet .
