Intermediate casters often have developed bad habits which have become ingrained. Call it muscle memory. They aren't thinking about it....they're just doing it. That explains why it's so hard to...
I've been using the Davy Knot EXCLUSIVELY now for four years now. In that time I've had two failures...and I can say for certain one was a mis sized hook to line ratio...the other was because I...
Yes, learn it. It will really up your game way above the dry fly and bobber crowd. Don't lock yourself into specifically "Czech" style however. There are a number of EURO nymphing styles that each...
Ditto the two above. :mad:
WFN TV is pretty much aired in Canada, only. PBS has been running The New Fly Fisher for a while, but not all PBS stations pick it up. The New Fly Fisher is sponsored by the IFFF. The good news...
There's really too much to write about the area. AKA the Midwest Golden Triangle of fly fishing. I will just add. that time of year you'll be getting into Kings (Chinook) running a lot of the Lake...
I hate them. Last pair I had lasted about 4 hours. Fell apart on the river. They are hard to focus with and if you don't flip them back under the hat, they can give you a nasty burn on a sunny...
I'm a HUGE fan of the "Clics" Warren posted about. I've had mine for 5 years of daily wear. They finely broke and I've since replaced them with the same. They work great for on the river too. ...
Yes Ed, they did. Hunters by nature take the biggest, healthest and best of the species they hunt for, which in turn leaves the weaker and smaller, to contribute to the gene pool. Wolves by nature,...
At over 85, he's still going strong fishing tight spots on the river. I want to be like him when I grow up!!

Here is a great resource for fishing in Colorado. http://ndismaps.nrel.colostate.edu/fishingatlas/
Thanks for the heads up! Grabbed it! ;)
This is a good pattern...but I'm also going to suggest that you try swapping out the CDC with snowshoe rabbit foot fibers. (cut the wing shorter). It will refloat after one or two false casts,...
It can snow in September in the higher elevations and it freezes at night. If you are going to wade...you need waders.
For those lucky enough to be in the USA and get NAT GEO WILD tv, America the Wild has started it's new season. They are saving the best for last. My bit, "Night of the Grizzly" airs on Sunday...
Me, too! ....
I'm sure this will thrill many of you here on Fly Anglers Online... I know it did me. Some old friends of mine and yours....

Used copies go for about $5. No gold mine there.
Now if you can find a copy of "Presentation" by Gary Borger ....that's a gold mine, for more than one reason.
Thanks! I'll look into Schweitzer's book for sure. I already have Marty Bartholomew's "Fly Fishing Guide to Colorado". I've been going through it so much that it's starting to fall appart. (I...

Thanks herefishy. YOU NEED TO CLEAN OUT YOUR MAILBOX!!! :cool: I couldn't send my response!
Yes! I've had this exact shirt http://www.aquadesign.com/fishing-shirts-expedition-camo.html for at least ten year now. It's still going strong. It's currently on clearance, too. They've updated...
I need get out of Dodge so to speak. I wanted to avoid the after Hex duldrums and the mosquitoes in Michigan this year. I've had a great time there this season but I'm feeling the call of the west...
