I was afraid of hearing this. I'm just getting started more or less in saltwater and I have a little place near Milton. It's not good in any kind of water when there is so many fish belly up. Does...
I was wondering how some of this cold weather may effect the fishing on the Florida Gulf Coast this year. I understand that mullet have died in some waters i.e. Mississippi Coast. Perhaps in...
I'm just getting into the saltwater game also, only having had a couple of chances over the last two years. I did get two days of fishing in during June, where I went to Ship Island just off the...
Ed Engle, in his book "Tying Small Flies" points out that the bivisibles, renegades and full hackle flies roll across the surface that may be just the ticket on some fish especially during a midge...
You may just have to reach down with a fly in your hand and let them take it. I had a koi pond and one time... the largest which we nicknamed "mop" would come like a pet dog and beg. You could feed...
At one time in my life I did a lot of cross country hiking. We got most of our water from springs when we could find them, but often we would use water from streams but would add a few drops of...
Hey Danbob, I was fishing south of you on the mid St. Vrain and later it started hailing just by Longs Peak. Whew boy, Im glad I was in my truck (headed towards the Big T). Then I stopped by St....
Thanks guys- I did take a picture but like an idiot I didnt bring my measuring tape. I took the picture next to my rod for reference. I havent developed the pictures yet. Man, I have to be better...
I caught a nice rainbow today that I would like to have a nice replica of ( yes I released it of course). Anybody have some suggestions regarding companies that make a nice lifelike replica?
Today I fished an area that should be flies and lures only, catch and release, but unfortunately it is not. I say unfortunately because as a catch and release fishery it would probably produce the...
Julie, over at Bob's had a sample of glow in the dark thread that she let me have. I found some glow flashabou at Sportsmans, and a spool of mylar tinsel somewhere else. Never did order one of...
Hey, Danbob, remember me? We talked a little about nightfishing last summer on this site.
I might have to take you up on your offer- I like that area you are in. I live on the south side of...
Hey guys looks like we have some company with these ideas:

Looks like I...
Doing a little research online I guess glow in the dark bass lures are not that uncommon. I think Ill give it a try. I've found a couple of references for some glow in the dark tying fiber that...

hope that worked...looks like a bushwhacking flyfisherman to me.
BTW, people will be watching that movie a hundred years from now. ...
Haven't caught a muskrat yet but did have a beaver slapping the water scare the #$%? out of me. About made me pee down one leg of the waders. Another hazard of fishin' in the dark. He kept on...
OK Bill Slingshot it is...and I'll give you a review of the video this week, as Im sure I'll have it by then. Won't be online for a few days though. Maybe I'll get to try Joe Humphreys tactics on...
Pharper:
That makes sense to use the pliers as a release. I think Im going to have to practice it a bit before I try it on the water.
I checked out your site on Flymphs - that is very...
I guess it all goes to show that there is a lot of adventure out there for bushwhackers going where nobody else goes - with bats, dobson flies, snakes and (imagine Humphrey Bogart) LEECHES! LEECHES!...
billknepp:
I'm still out on the road- it could be at home. I don't think it got there yet or I would have heard "You got ANOTHER fishing video?" from my wife.
Gnu Bee:
Something tells me...
Yep I tied it and it was a pretty ugly fly at that having caught several fish on it. The bat was pretty defiant with his mouth open glaring up at me. I didnt want to hurt him as bats are pretty...
Went fishing yesterday evening testing out some of the bushwhacking tactics that we had discussed earlier.. Changed out the vest for a small chest pack. Snuck up along the edges and hid behind a...
I'd read about the "bow and arrow" shot but I didn't quite understand it until ya'll describe d it here. Maybe come up with a new "gadget"...a Quick Release (as used in compound bows) for...
I just ordered Joe Humphreys video and found a lot of references online including a good article from a flyshop in PA called Fly Fishers Paradise. A fellow said he's wore out two copies of it over...
Bill:
Thanks for the info I'm looking up Joe Humphreys now. As Danbob said a lot of streams in our area are in that category. They are small, typically in canyons with dense trees and...
