My favorite plane to rent and fly is a 152 aerobat. (just one push to go fast handle, keeping it simple) I also fly a 172 and 150 but the 152 is great. 125hp works great for such a light aircraft....

We all go through periods where everything seems to go nuts for a streatch and this year has been one for me. I live in north texas and after years of drought we got killed by more rain than I've...

If you tie you own flies you might experiment on making the same size fly lighter. For example I will use beadchain instead of dumbell eyes for a large clouser and work it slower since it will sink...

Here's one that happened to me. I cast to a pool that was right beside some flowing water and was trying to land my small bugger near a stick that was standing up. I didn't realize that there was...

One thing you will find our very quickly in fly fishing is you get what you pay for. A good 6 or 7wt rod will serve you well in both cold and warm water fishing. (remember the rod wt is determined...

Thanks for the tip I'll have to check one out. reminds me of when I was standing in line at the post office and realized they sold cardboard tubes for shipping that was perfect for my rod to be...

I never leave without a couple of hex patterns.

One thing that helps is to have the young man do drills with no rod but with both hands. Start with both hands as if the boy was holding a pretend gun with the hammer down. In other words the first...

NO PADDLE!!!

I think I would have took my trusty hatchet to a small tree and made a long pole and pushed my self around with that. (would love to see what happens when I hit deep water)

I loved the article but in truth it made me very sad. Growing up in the country here in Texas I've always had a soft spot for the small businessman. I would love to own my own business, some small...

Sounds like worth trying. Kinda like a cross between a leech and a bugger. Bass like flies they've never seen B4 I'll have to go tie one.

After you've tied all of the above suggestions Try tying the largest wolly bugger you can. It should be olive and at least 4-5 inches long. A 1/0 streamer hook works good. You'll need a little...

I've yet to hear of someone catching a carp on the surface. The concensus around here is that they are cleaning their gills by breaching the surface. I've seen it a lot over the years and have...

Man, you've got a taste of my bad luck! If it can happen, it will. I can't tell you how many times I've said "Man, there's just no way that could happen" only to have it come true.

At least...

I'm trying to tie a zug bug and am having problem with the bearded hackle. It's says to wrap the hackle a couple of turns and pull the fibers under and tie them down. I must be doing something...

I started to tell all the things that I've learned that last few months of lessons but realized that I couldn't without stealing someone elses information. (namely Allen Crise and Lefty Kreh)

For my 7wt rod I like a fast action rod to help with the big bugs/clousers. For my 3wt rod I like a medium action rod for dry flies and small nymphs.

I went fishing yesterday at noon too, I just gave em a good laugh!

I'm trying to look on scientific anglers for care of my fly line and it's on a pdf file. I tried everything to open it and nothing works. How do you open a pdf file?

I would contact the magazine that he wrote for. Good luck!

When I broke my TFO I sent in the section that broke and they sent me a whole rod. So now I have an extra tip section. Sounds like most companies do the same thing. I almost bought a Reddington, ...

I go after carp now and then. I've only had three hookups, one on a black bugger and the other two on a nymph. I was only able to land one of them. I've had so many swim right by my fly that I...

On the way home from work I noticed a full moon rising and there was no wind so I decided to try some night fishing. I tried a black popper, a white bugger and a small chartruse popper with no...

I stopped by a pond near my job today after work to catch a few stocked black crappie. It was nice to see that they are finally starting to grow a little. I had about 40 foot of line out when a...

I remember my grandmother saying..."When the winds from the east, the fish bite the least"

While this may or may not be true one fact remains, Sometimes the fish just don't bite. A lot of people...
