I'm fairly certain the wooly worm/spinner combo is legit in the fly only section, as are the single-point roostertails.

Jigs though would certainly be legal, and a good selection of those will likely catch some fish. There's a ton of different recommendations out there, I've always done well with white, black, black/yellow, ginger, and olive.

You'll have to replace the trebles on the rapalas with one single-point hook.

I'm not so sure you can use the Rapalas in the flies only section even if you replace the trebles with one single. The regs book explicitly okays "rooster tails," but makes no mention of other lures...if I remember correctly. You may want to ask at the office first.

Rooster tails and fly-spinners are OK, but rapalas and spoons are not. Need single point hooks in the fly zone. He can also fish flies under a indicator with the spinning gear, just a little harder to cast. Good way to nymph without mending being much of a problem.

Outside of the park, Lures and trebles are OK, but no soft plastic or live bait.

I hope he got the recommendation about black/yellow maribou jigs. Probably the #1 of all fish catchers in the fly only area.

Definitely no to rapalas. Try them in the anything goes area though.

Definietly yes to wooly spinners. They call them the Montauk Special down there. Whatever makes them feel special I guess.
