I can't wait to teach my son! He'll be 2 in September. Too bad my wife doesn't share my enthusiasm for the sport! I've already purchased him a Scooby-Doo spin rod, but once he's more mature (I'm...
When I was a kid I used to go onto our local golf course and fish (of course this is before I switched all FLY!) Caught tons of bluegill, crappie, and some pretty big bass. One pond had goldfish...
During extremely hot days, I usually find that I can catch a good number of fish under pretty much any sort of bridge. I've lit into a good number of crappie many times this summer by sidearming a...
What a great idea for a thread! Here's my stepdaughter's first fish on the fly!

I wish I lived in area with trout! If it's not put...
Funny, my only flyfishing rod is broken and I'm going nuts, yet my spincast rods are all in perfect fishing condition; I've lost the will the spincast altogether!
Yeah, finances are pretty prohibitive. I have a broken St. Croix rod of the same weight, and I'm having trouble sending it in for warranty (I can't find the receipt but I have the warranty card and...
I'm hopelessly addicted to eBay and I found this rod for sale (a couple of them actually) and I'm still a bit "green around the gills" when it comes to shopping for quality gear.

Now I know why I broke my 6wt. rod on a carp! When my hand HAD to go close to his mouth, he kicked, I freaked, rod point went high, got converted unintentionally into a three piece! Maybe I have the...
I'm father to one, stepfather to three. I have two fathers, and four grandfathers (long story don't ask).
I'm having an outdoor BBQ in my honor tomorrow, however, no one really asked what I...
I was wondering if anyone has any experience striper fishing in Assateague Island, MD?
I've been flyfishing a few months for bass and panfish, but I've always wanted to pull some big boys out of...
Thanks for that article! I think it really sunk in... this time http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/smile.gif

Thanks guys. And thanks for not making too much fun! http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/wink.gif

I was going to respond to the previous leader post, but my question is a bit different.
I feel kind of silly, but 95% of my flyfishing is completely self taught. The only place I really receive...
I eat all my trout. Before I get yelled at though, trout can't survive in the shallow ponds and warm streams on the Delmarva peninsula. They are occasionally stocked in put and take streams and ponds...
Scouting? You do that too?
Yesterday my wife freaked as I drifted across the median in a road as I drooled over a spot I hadn't noticed before with deep water, a spillway, and plentiful lillies...
Thanks for the great answers and not scoffing at such a simple question! I had been having an argument about the matter with a buddy of mine and I'm glad I finally got it resolved!
Funny to think...
I was reading the rainbow trout article on Wikipedia and it stated that steelhead are just rainbow trout that go into saltwater; or at least that's how I took it. Is this true? I hear them mentioned...
LOL that's a hoot Dave!
I'm confused about that as well Chris. I hear people using Fusion or Firewire for leaders. How can that be applied appropriately?
I'm a little confused about what exactly a furled leader is. I'm still pretty new to flyfishing, but building my own leaders is something I would love to learn to do to save a bit of money; my wife...
It is exciting indeed! I'm glad to stop shuffling my gear around and actually get out and fish. Here's my fare from a few days ago!

Beautiful pictures!!!!!
Nice pictures! I guess it goes to show how deep our love of fishing runs; even when we don't have our fishing gear!
Sure was great finally getting fish. I've really dove into flyfishing. Now I just need to go get some bass bugs!
