Bahahahaha
Chance, not that one. Take the "t" out. Its an app like a video game.:D
Thanks for all the advice. I am tickled to death to have even set the hook and generally laugh when they go on their merry way. It would be nice to bring one to the net.
Anyone else try Amazon's Fly Fishing Simulator? I have, fun little deal.
Thanks for the replies.
Eric, I keep the hooks sharp. I check sharpness after release or getti g snagged.
Vinny, The hook sizes have varied from a size 10 salmonfly to a size 18 caddis nymph....
Hello all. I don't post a whole lot. I am self taught basically and the last two years it appears I am putting it all together and getting into fish regularly and hooking big fish (18 plus inches) on...
Thanks for the heads up
How many flies are we sending out this time?
12 Soft hackle flies inbound. My guess is they will land at your door Wednesday, possibly Tuesday.
Thanks Vinny
Thanks for the replies. I was 75% the way to giving it a go. Now I'm 50-50 with a slight lean towards sticking with Thingamabobbers and dry dropper combo. Although that thing does have a certain...
Does anyone have experience with the New Zealand Strike Indicator? Looks like it would b great, but there has to be some down side to it, doesn't there?

All the fish in that creek were strong with a calital strong.
Thanks everyone. Here's the second half of the video. Mom got so excited she stopped recording for a second or two. Kevin she is using that pink blank I got from you a while back.

My daughter has been bitten by the flyfishing bug. About a year or so ago I posted the tale of her first fish. Today I post the tale of her first solo fish. She did everything 100% by herself. I...
Introducing my recently completed USMC MHX 9' 2 piece 3 wt. I am extremely happy with how this turned out. Thanks to kbproctor for the end cap....
Congrats. Now three weeks is going to drag on like three months.
Number two, hands down.
Another place I like to go. Thirty minute drive to trailhead, plus a one hour hike. There's other places over the ridge but to make it worth the effort packing a tent is a good idea....
Thirty minute drive to my favorite fishing spot.

Fair representative of the rainbows in there. Browns live there too, but...
A couple weeks ago we went out on what will probably be the last camping trip of the year. My 11 year old daughter has been watching "Flyrod Chronicles", "Seasons on the Fly", "On the Rise" with me...
Well Joe, you'll be glad to know I am very seriously considering building my own, most likely the kit you suggested. I'll probably hold off until I get back from the BIG city. So for Joe, and...
Thank you for the opinions, and advice. Building a rod is very intriguing to me right now. I load my own ammo (some of my guns have never shot a factory round since I've owned it), fletch arrows,...
