*About Paul Becignuel
I consider myself to be an intermediate tier with knowledge of some
advanced tying skills. I have no experience with salt-water fly fishing
but it is something that I will pursue as my body gets older and the
urge to migrate south for the winter kicks in, right now though there
is enough to do in the winter wonderland of Michigan to
not bother with going south.
Politically, I believe that we as fly fishers need to bond with other
sport fisherman to become a large group rather than separates. I
saw in my shooting sports how the anti's got a foot in when the
separate groups were divided and the whole group lost as a result
of that.
Catch and Release is something I practice regularly but I also have
been known to harvest a fish or two with moderation.
