A BASIC APPROACH TO FLY FISHING STILLWATERS

Most anglers that plan a trip to a specific area to fish will take a careful look at the opportunities that await them and will carefully consider their options before finalizing their plans. Right?!!

Well, not exactly. Let me explain. I talk to many anglers each year who are planning trips to the legendary waters of Paradise Valley in Montana. The waters they want to talk about are the three spring creeks that are just south of Livingston or the Yellowstone River which flows through the valley. There is also a great deal of interest in the fabled streams of Yellowstone National Park like the Firehole, Slough Creek or the Gibbon.

Tom, Quite an excellent article and so much information it's hard to gather it all in at one sitting. For thoes who are going to
fish the still waters there are some very informative videos by Denny Rickards on "Still Water Presentations" also some good videos with Brian Chan fishing Chironomids. I found both sets to be very instructive and well worth the time invested watching.
