I don't fish it, but I have a good friend who does seriously and has won the boat flyrod division for bass and bluefish several times.
Several years ago, after he had already weighed in a 20 something bass and a 8 something bluefish, we were fishing in Woods Hole and he got into small bass on every cast with his flyrod against pine island on one side of the boat while I was into big (10-13#) bluefish on every cast using plugs on the other side of the boat. I told him he should take a minute and upgrade his bluefish for the derby but he was having too much fun with little bass.....and a big blue in current on a flyrod is not enjoyable....to be bothered. Well in the following weeks he went on to catch a big albie and then lucked into a bonito behind Squibnocket. This lead to him leading the prestigious flyrod grandslam until the last day or two when he was beaten out in total weight by 2oz..........and thus providing me with years of "I told you so" satisfaction.
