Nice un! Even I can tie that...I think!
I haven't been around as long as a lot of the members here but I enjoyed my time spent perusing these pages. I started fly fishing late in life about age 47 after my wife gave me a fly rod as a...
I finally ponied up and bought a waterproof after dropping one Nikon and one Canon in the river. I bought the Olympus Stylus sw850. Love it!! Nice pictures and very convenient and compact to carry....
Traditional fly fishing is fine...if that is what you like. But my opinion is that everyone likes to put their own slant on things to make it more enjoyable to them. In other words...it's fishing! I...
Anyone recognize the woolly bugger pattern in Joe Hyde's article this week? It looks fishy in that picture. I am guessing the tail is some kind of hair? And the body is .....herl...or ...some other...
At my last cholesterol testing, they wound up in my hand after six attempts in the arms. So from now on I'm going the hand route as well. Once they get er tapped she gushes like an oil well. I have...
I just got the same Helen email. Not sure how they got my email either. But they may just be phishing and using FAOL as bait. I sent Ladyfisher a PM anyway.:confused:
Thanks guys. We are staying at the Gulf Shores Plantation Resort. I remember Perdido pass from my prior visits. Not a bad drive from where we will be. I will probably try the beaches near us first....
Headed down to Gulf Shores next week and would like any information on where a guy could do some wade fishing. I've been there before but I wasn't into fly fishing then. I was thinking perhaps around...
Never attempted it before Jim, but I would suspect a cricket or beetle imitation fished near the bottom with some kind of indicator would work. I would probably use a sinking line and enough shot to...
I use the material from a duster that I get at the dollar store to tie parachute posts. Those multi colored ones have bright yellow, pink, blue and white poly 'something or other' fibers on them. The...
If you will be working on Windward Parkway, I would suggest looking in the Windward Community for housing. It sure would make your commute easier. Also Forsyth County is right next door and some...
I manage a retail Department Store which doesn't leave much time to fish. But I do the best I can to get out when I can and I really enjoy every moment on a quiet stream. Catching or not I still...
Was fishing my favorite trout stream today with my oldest son, and we were not having a lot of luck. So in the last riffled area of the afternoon I saw the beadhead adams and decided to tie it on....
Probably won't cause me to cancel any trips, but I may elect to borrow my wife's gas sipper instead of taking my SUV gas guzzler. That is, if she says it is ok. :D
It is about 2 hours to my favorite...
If he is not booked already, the guide I know is a really nice guy and always puts me on fish. His name is Geoff Colmes and his website is
www.floridakeysflyfish.com. He also knows many other guides...
I just started using the applicator about a month ago and I really like it. I can get a small drop of cement just where I want it to go. I haven't had any problems with it so far either. I also pour...
I am always truely amazed at the vast amount of fly fishing and / or general knowledge possessed by the members of this board! Truely spectacular! :rolleyes:
Your words also express my feelings after a day of fishing. And I too am benefiting from reading some of the classic fishing literature. It enhances and promotes my experience I believe. Well...
I found something similiar in the dollar store with the wrapping materials (like you would wrap a present with) section. It was on a spool and it came in gold, silver, and pearl. But it could be...
I tied some of these Bead-head adams during the holidays when because of work I couldn't find time to fish. Yesterday I had the opportunity to try them out. I must report that even though my tying is...
I too like to read the mags and file them to reread later. However, I am able to access the newspaper online and I find that I read more articles per day online than in the paper issue. I still get...
As soon as I can figure out how to get the vise into the bulb......hmmmmmmm :?
I would think the white woolly bugger might just imitate a grub worm very nicely. :)
