Fish Hard!
Most places you cannot see the grass, at least I cannot.......sometimes, but not most.

Get yourself a good Atlantic Map and look at the dark blue places on points and cuts. The more dark blue directly off the point/cut, the better chance there is grass.

I've been successful finding grass this way. After I find where there should be grass, I like to throw a jig or something to confirm it....THAT way you know.

Then fish the fly as shallow as you can until you find the grass edge, and then HANG ON............boom. By shallow, I don't mean a shorter leader, I mean throw past the edge of the grass, and drag the fly through it, off the edge.....

This pattern worked mon, tue, wed last week for us, but after the hard warm rain on Friday, we were really not able to use the same technique. We still fished grass, but I'm not sure we fished the "right" grass.

Later,
