What is the reason you would give someone if they asked why they should pursue fly fishing?
if they asked why WE fly fish ... bought a condo next a ski hill in PA. skiing lasts 12 weeks if you're really lucky--lately it's down to 8-9. so what else is there to do in our golden years when we want to get out of the Big City? choices: golf and fly fishing. golfing looked awfully expensive and would require planning days in advance. golf travel looked even more expensive. tried fly fishing instead and got well hooked. turned out it's not exactly cheap, but that's because we suffer Gear Acquisition Syndrome.
