For anyone new to angling with a fly, one of the first things I would suggest you learn and practice, is stream etiquette.

I was fishing one of my favorite streams this last Friday and had to bite my tongue....twice! I noticed only about five other anglers all day; however, on two separate occasions I had two of them enter the stream just above where I was beginning to work a pool. I honestly think they did not know any better, but that didn't stop me from cursing under my breath. Maybe I should have taken the time to speak to them about stream etiquette but I just left and headed upstream hopeful of not seeing them again!

Here's a pretty good tutorial on stream etiquette. Hope it helps those that are unaware?
