What's YOUR "Fish List"?
hey folks - just thinking about this now that I'm starting to fish warm waters.
What does your fish list look like on a fly rod? I know some people are really good at adding "new species", and while I have a few, I know it's nothing like what some others have.
Also interested if the saltwater folks have a lot more than freshwater folks.
Here's mine:
TROUT
- Rainbow
- Brown
- Brookies
WARM WATER (Just started fishing with a flyrod)
- Largemouth Bass
- Bluegill
- Green Sunfish
- Bluegill
- Red ear Sunfish
So how about the rest of you?
