A nice cutt from day 1:

5925

I will say that even with the wind blowing 30-40 mph, when a cast could be made with a decent drift, it would draw a strike. It felt pretty good to...

I got back from Montana yesterday after floating the Yellowstone for 2 days with Walter Wiese (Longs for Cutts) out of Parks Fly shop in Gardiner. On the first day, we floated from Gardiner to...

Thanks Ladyfisher, that is great advice. I think I will drink a couple of beers first, just to make it as realistic as possible.

Thank you everyone for the info. I am going to research the outfits that are recommended. I have never fished from a drift boat and am really looking forward to it.

Guys,

I have a trip planned to Montana in mid to late September and I would like to float the Yellowstone or Maddy and chunk streamers. My question is two-fold- one, would either one be fishing...

Closest trout stream is in New Mexico, 6-8 hours from Abilene. The Penasco river for wild trout (all on private property and pay to fish, try Mulcock Ranch, there are some real hogs in there) or the...

Beautiful shots. I would not mind seeing more, if you have them.

Man that is a great story, and skillfully told. I love the "just cause" choice, I am very familiar with that form of scientific reasoning!!!!! I have fished Charlie's place once and while I didn't...

Thanks Rusty. Never caught a smallie on the long rod, hopefully will tangle with one or twenty.

I am heading to West Virginia next weekend to see my brother-in-law who moved there recently. We will be staying in Summersville. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to fish in the...

No, not spinal sack, spinal sac.


Just kidding. I'm not certain that is what it's called. Looks like it is full of blood so I get rid of it. Maybe someone knows the real term. Flyandtie,...

Same principle as a gut hook on a hunting knife.......great idea, but in my limited experience with trout I will still need a knife to cut the sinew attaching the guts to the cavity, and scrape the...

I'm not sure about your definition of awesome, but I hear the Grande is some pretty awesome water right near town. I believe there is a blue ribbon section of flies only between S. Fork and Del...

Cool story. I will also take the advice on stopping the roll cast quicker.
Best, dw

Pastor Ed, I don't think it could be said any better. Good words.

Keith,
Your options are extremely limited. They are stocking rainbows in the Brazos below Possum Kingdom dam today (Dec 8). It should be about an hour and a half drive south of Wichita Falls. If...

Mark,
I don't know if you have ever been to Ruidoso, but the Rio Ruidoso runs right through town. It has decent fishing for stockers most of the time, but I would check on the flows before counting...

Heading to Corpus for a short trip and was wondering if anyone had ideas for redfish flies. I am going to fish Nighthawk Bay by kayak hopefully for one or two evenings and have no idea what to...

Congrats from south of the river. Best catch I heard of in awhile.
God Bless you and yours Okie, and also, if she is half as dramatic as my precious 3 yr old, may God grant you wisdom, patience,...

Jim,
Congrats may sound funny for a surgery but congrats that you are on the mend. I don't know you, really don't know anyone on here, but I have noticed from 2 years of FAOL that you are...

Reelon,
Welcome to not only the best fly fishing site on the 'net, but the best group of guys.
I would emphasize spending as much time as possible learning how to cast. If you are like me and...

JC, you crack me up.

I appreciate yall. I practice without a rod in my hand and your advice works great....ha ha. Moturke that is a good article that I did not find when i searched keyword double haul. I am trying to...

Oh yeah. Trout preferably wild, black bass, sandie, striper, or crappie, I'll occasionally keep a mess of each. To me there is a God given instinct about taking your bounty, be it fish or other...

I have a question for you. I'm trying to become a better caster, and am trying to teach myself to double haul. In N. Texas the wind never ceases to blow unless it is 100?, and this method of casting...
