Thank you for visiting our site & Guestbook pages!
We would love it if you would Add to it!

This is my first visit to the website. It's great! I am a beginner who inherited an old bamboo rod and reel in a wood box...my father and I are restoring it to hang in the den. In the meantime he is trying to teach me a thing or two about flyfishing. I will be trying out what little skills I have learned next week near the border waters in Minnesota so wish me luck. At 53 I may be the oldest beginner around!

I found this site last week by using a duck hunting forum. They had a some fishing items and I was browsing through and someone mentioned this site. It is so much unlike other sites that I have been on. This is what I expected of a forum where the statements, questions, and answers are of an informative nature with no nonsense replies. It is enjoyable reading to me and so informative for a beginner in the fly fishing sport. In a weeks time I have learned and met a local to enhance my fishing techniques from the forum. In the past I had a feeling of fly fisherman being of the uppity or smug class of fishing. I now have a complete different opinion of the people involved in this sport by talking to the people on the stream and reading the forum.

Everyone is so polite and courteous with the information they are willing to share. I hope to be one also who is looked up to in representing this elite sport. I may be a slow learner, but I am going to get it right. An old dog can learn new tricks. Many thanks to the people that put their time and efforts into this forum. I believe you have just made my life easier.

I am new to fly fishing and belong to a club here in Ontario Canada. I have used your directions for tying fly's for the last three years. I find them very informative and up to date. Keep up the good work.

I just got my first fly rod in 40 years. I fished a fly in the 1950s in the rivers and streams of Northern Califoria, Mt Shasta. After joining the service I layed down the fly rod. The kids are raised now the last one goes off to collage in August and it's time to go back to the fly rod. I live in S. Florida and do alot of trips thru Central America.I have a 9ft 8wt and go after bass in ponds around our home and looking forward to our next trip to Central America. I am just learning to cast again and I enjoy casting and learning that catching fish which is just a little bonus. I surf a lot at work and found your site to be the best.

I'm a beginner at fly fishing to say the least,i just got my first rig #4/5 caught a 12in. rainbow first time out, it hasn't been that great the last two times but i'm still having fun. I have a few flies so far but my question is how do you tell the wet flies from the dry ones by looking at them i know this is a dumb question but i need to know.

I read and studied your seminar on building a first graphite rod. Your directions, photos, and insight were A-one! I just finished my first rod--a 7' 6" 3wt. from a Loomis IMX blank. It turned out looking great, but best of all, it casts like a dream--as good or better than my fly-shop bought 9' 6wt. I even caught a 12" rainbow on the second "wet" cast. I certainly appreciate the detailed information. Well done!

I have been in and out of your site for some time now. I learned a lot about tying my own flies from here. It has been great to have this kind of help. Times are real tough here and I needed to start saving more and more. An besides that I wanted to learn to tie my own. Just never got to it till just a year or more ago. Keep up the good work. I hope to chat with folks here very soon.

There's more information on this site than anyplace else on the web! If I could just tell a bit how I became interested in fly-fishing. I was fortunate to have my "Uncle Joe" who was a really good brook-trout fisher. when I was about 20 years old, he took me to his favorite creek in Marinette County, WI. He said to me, "You fish upstream from here and I'll fish downstream". He knew where all the good holes were--and they weren't upstream!! That's why he sent me upstream! As I was working my way back down and at three different times when I was trying to untangle my leader from the brush and I fell in due to overhanging banks and laughed out loud while doing so, Unc Joe, who heard me, knew I was hooked. That was 58 years ago and I'll tell you, that feeling hasn't changed. Thanks for lettin me tell this story. I have thousands more! Thank you again.

First time to this site, but I truly love it.. Great information, beautiful pictures, and most of all, everyone seems so helpful. Fishing is supposed to be a gentlemans pastime, yet, more and more Im coming across more and more who wouldnt waste the time of day to help a new, or youngler angler in their quest at becoming better, and more informed.. I think this is sad, as everyone has to start somewhere, and, I, for one am more than happy to offer what advice I can, good or bad to help someone. I even feel it is an honor to be looked upon for guidance..... So, to all my fellow fisherpeople, good luck, and, tight lines...... Shane McMindes

I grew up in Louisiana fly fishing for pan fish. I recently returned to fly fishing when my son took it up after he finished Law School. It has been a super way for us to renew our relationship after his years of school and marriage. We try to get together at least once a month for a day of flyfishing and male bonding and cigar smoking. He has just started tying his own flys and I can not wait to show him this site. Great info ... thanks

I have been visiting this site for over six years now. I've actually won the free drawing (Twice!) and I have yet to find another flyfishing resource that even comes close to this one. This is a truly awesome flyfishing information well. I use it as a tool just as much as I review it for entertainment. Great Job! My only regret is not having enough time to read everything on the website...or enough time to fish, but I'm working on it :-) RG

I have been a fly fisherman for over 45 years and been a minister for 38 years. In all those years I have never tied a fly. I am learning through your downloads. I am also using this interest that I have as a way to teach others how to tie flies and while doing that I am able to share the Good of Jesus. Thanks for helping me in both.

Love this site. I have been a fan of old flies for last sixteen years. I got started using them when a freind turned me on to the Double Hackle Peacock. Caught a load of fish ont back in 1990. I looked high and low to find the tying instructions then after two years I found an artical on it and a whole family of double hackles. Tried them all and now the renegade is one of my standard patterns. I was so impressed that I went to the library and spent a couple of months studying old forgotten flies. Well one thing lend to another and now I'm a sport fishing columnist and fly fishing instructor. I just love plugging those old flies in my columns. Besides the old stuff I like your editorials Baloney is my favorite. Told my wife about your site last night she spent the whole evening reading. Great stuff!

I have been tying jigs for many years but found I was limited in the way I was using the matrial until your site opened up a whole field of how to and now I've found ways of incorporating your way of using and tying materials into my jigs. Also I'm now trying to tie streamers and wet flies thanks for the skills and knowledge I've gotten from your how to instructions.

Really enjoy this website and like has been stated before I wish this kind of information and friendly banter had been around 50 years ago when I was stealing feathers out of my pillow and thread from my mother's sewing box.........

What a great site to shorten one's fly tying and fly fishing education! I'm sure us old timers (fly fishing 50 years - or more) are jealous - we had to learn the hard knocks way (only spider webs then - no TU - no FFF - just a few books). But we're also grateful for your effort - a check is on the way. Thanks.

Here in Michigan we have some wonderful trout waters. However the River Raisen is only a stones throw from our S.E. Michigan farm. Some of the best fly waters for small mouth bass in the country. The excitment is when that rascal pike grabs your fly and ruins a perfectly good 3X tippet. I have fished in Alaska, the Oregon coast streams, Washington Puget Sound inlets but our great state of Michigan is hard to beat...and the crowds just don't appear. I notice this issue of your web magazine is sponsored by Cortland. I am still using several 444 lines and I can say from experience....the old peach pals have never let me down. Keep up the good work and tight lines.

I found your site about a year ago,and was impressed. I've fly fished for fourty+ years, but about five years ago I lost the sight in my left eye. I went through a time when I didn't think I could tie flies or fish and do much of a job at it. Kinda gave up,self pitty I guess. The pattern a week got me exited about tying again, wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. If you tie them, ya gotta try them. I don't fish as well as I used to,but it got me going again. Thanks and keep up the good work.....Tom

I just read the Editorial Comments on removing certain posts that some may have precieved as "somewhat less than a Joke". I think this particular comment should be re-drafted and immediately be forwarded (this is not an advertisement) to "American Angler" for their new Rant column. It is right in line with their desires for rants (what else can you say). Thos who are to serious for their own good should meet the "rath of the pen" with far more regularity.

Hi Through many years of tying, I have discovered that many of the old english ties have worked well here in Oregon. The patterns are simple to tie and delicate and life like in motion upon the waters. I am an admitted soft-hackled addick first, but I am guilty of casting a dry when the challenge presents itself. Oh but the softhackle patterns have proven themselves many times over in so many a different situation and circumstance. From the Santiams, McKenzie, Siletz, Middle Willamette and other not so famous streams of the Willamette Valley - the softhackle has fooled many a large trout.

I enjoy the articles and share many of them with my family. I have turned other anglers on to the site and they all have made very positive comments concerning the information available here.

Fly Anglers On Line is a great site and I do check in once in a while just to see whats new. I noticed recently that a new section has opened up called OLD FLIES AND STUFF. This is a very interesting section. Through many years of tying and tying the latest so called hot patterns, I have discovered that many of the oldies but goodies prove to be the best. They are that way for a reason and it took me a while to find out exactly why. I am an admitted soft-hackled addick and many of the patterns listed in "OLD FLIES...." reflect those ancient and sober patterns that for me have proven themselves many times over in many situations and circumstances. The history of such patterns has been very interesting to me as well and the shear volume of information that is in just that section of your web-site is astounding. I have to admit that I have just begun to look around the hut and see all the good stuff that is so freely offered there. Please, keep up the good work and by all means keep adding to and updating this particularly interesting section. Yours, DOUG DUVALL

I have been out of fly tying and fly fishing for many years and recently decided it was time to start again. Fished the Des Chutes, Klickatat, White Salmon and Columbia two weeks ago. Fishing with a Spey rod on the Des Chutes was a new experience. My fishing partner caught several steelhead on flies he tied. I was just so happy to be there with the osprey and mink....I have missed my fishing. This is a wonderful site with a lot of information. Thank You It is going to be fun starting again.

Even fishing flies for bluegills takes on a new dimension, especially when there are youngsters around to introduce to the joys of fly fishing. Fly tying, beautiful and often functional art.

A year or more back I used to enjoy visiting the chat room & more often than not the room would be occupied. After a break of a year or so I have tried repeatedly to re visit the site only to find it appears to be empty 90% of the time. At first I thought the time difference may be causing the problem, so tried varying the time both day & night, with much the same result. Is there a reason for this apparent decline in occupancy?

We didn't catch a darn thing (some seaweed count?) but we had a blast. We fished an inlet in Brooklyn New York not far from JFK airport (believe it or not). We're going out to another bay in the area to try again really soon. Couldn't have done it without you. This site is excellent. Please keep it up 8-) dc

I haven't been fishing for nearly 35 years. My son-in-law, a New York City firefighter has gotten me interested again. We bought some equipment and we are planning our first trip sometime in September. We want to try Saltwater (he lives in Brooklyn, NY) around old Fort Tilden - Jamaica Bay. I also want to try the Delaware River between Trenton and Lambertville. I've received some great advice from you web site -- keep up the good work. Also, when you talk about the Delaware River, don't forget to mention the New Jersey part. You can go from great trout fishing, to small mouth bass, to huge stripers in one fishery and, at most an hours drive away. Some of the Delaware's tributaries are great as well.

For many years I used to drive to Guelph to The Casual Fly Tying Club, but because of my shifts, or the hours I start at work it has made it difficult to meet there and I really miss the fun, the friends and the learning experiance from other fly tiers. SO! What I was hoping to do is start a fly tying club in Acton. So if anyone living in Milton, Georgetown, or areas that are close to, if anyone is interested, lets try and meet and see if we couldn't start our own fly tying club. Lets get some ideas as to how where and when. You have my email address. get in touch. Thanks FAOL. You're the best site going. Bar non.

After tying jigs for steelhead for years I have started to try my luck at flies. I want to congratulate you on having the best site I have found for fly patterns and the information on tying them. The only drawback is that I saw the Atlantic fly patterns and now I will be driving myself nuts trying to make a good looking one. Any chance I can send you the bill?

Came across this site by accident and will purposely go buy a fly fishing rod. My kayak fisher friend asked "are we fishing snobs" and I said "no, we do not fly fish" but truth is too scared to get it wrong. I take it back, I take it back! Can't wait to advance my angling skills. Blessings.

Great site I have spent many hours reading, learning and loving it. I live in noth east Mo and flyfish the local streams. have done it for years and only once have run into another flyfisherman. I am teaching my wife now and my daughters boy freind--gotta pass it on. The otherday I aws on one of the nearby creeks playing with the bass on the 2wt I built last winter and having a great day when a new ranger bass boat came off the mississippi river screamig up the mouth of the creek, one of the fishermen in the boat not knowing I could hear him said look at this cat what does he think he is with a fly rod and vest they had a good laugh but it was short lived as in the next hour I pulled in one after another as they set and watched never getting a bite this turned a good day into a great day for me. do not get me wrong I love all kinds of fishing and do all kinds But it seemed they had no respect for a flyfisherman so it made my day thank you Lord

having a good fly line sure can make a difference, when fishing off shore as i learned this past weekend. i ordered a new line, which should be here shortly. getting the line out there was a chore. i did catch some fish though, putting them back was the best part, will be some for next time. keep a tight line

I am relatively new to the sport and love it, but living in Nevada causes a need to travel a lot to find good flyfishing. I am the marketing and membership chairperson for the Southern Nevada Chapter of Trout Unlimited, and believe me the chapter is "limited" in member participation. This is my first visit to your site and I am very impressed and excited to have found it since I am a beginner. Kudos to all who have made this possible!

I've fly fished for years and will always enjoy the thrill of having a trout grab a fly that I tied. Does anyone have a good streamer pattern for WI streams?

This is by far the best commercial free non-biased(well at least commercially!) site on the planet although it may be a bit addicting at times. Thank you for all your work and it shows that this is a labor of love that you share with a whole lot of folks around the world. Well done!

Now that I have discovered this site I have regained my interest in fly fishing as well as tying flies. Now I look forward to fishing and tying flies with my sons as I did with my brother and father, which brings me to whip finishers. I grew up on the Thompson Finsiher but at Penn State I learned to do it by hand in my fly fishing course and have never looked back. Somehow, I prefer doing by hand until I have dry skin.

Your "Whip Finisher" video has saved the lives of two Thompson Finishers. Though I've fly fished for years, I'm very new to tying. My wife talked me into using eBay to get started, then upgrading if I found I liked it. The Materelli was easy, but I truly thought the Thompsons were cheap knock offs. Thanks for the help. That was the only problem I've had with the used stuff, so now I think I'll celebrate with a new Montana Mongoose. :0)

I have flyfished for over 25 years (freshwater)and have fished for bonefish (2 yrs ago)on one guided day, missing 3 opportunities for the most common reasons. I have also had 3 tarpon on before, but never landed one. I also dream of a opportunity to catch a permit. With very little flats experience, I have read many books on it. Now I have lived in Alaska for 12 years, but am booked for a trip to Los Roques in mid April 05 and would appreciate any insights, suggestions, or comments that flyfishermen might have for me to prepare for my trip. Flies, equipment,techniques, etc. having a 5,7, 8,9,& two 10 wts. Responses appreciated.

I have started fly tying recently, finding the instructions on your site concerning tools needed and how to use them as well as the patterns I have been able to make almost al of the flies covered and they look very good. Due to the current weather here I have not been able to try all of them but the results are there. Also having a complete machine workshop in my company I have made most of the tools myself, including a vice on which I have acquired a patent. Even the knot whipper I have made myself and with the instructions you have published it worked from tryout number one! I really enjoy your site and cannot wait for the next fly patterns to try them out! Anyway thank you for your site and I will keep visiting regularly. Dirk Oorthuizen Uitgeest, Holland

When I found your site I thought this is a very good instructional site for learning how to tie Flys. I have just gotten started in fly tying thanks to my son. I find this hobby very fullfilling. I also like reading the other fishing articles on this site. I would like to see some other articles about fishing Western New York Streams if possible.

Visiting this site is a "Breath-of-fresh-air". Absolutly Love It. The amount of information is awesome. Living in the Portage Lakes, only 'minutes' from the back door, affords me the oppurtunity to fish for Bass and panfish every night and every weekend, (of course, after the Honey-Do list has been at least started). This year hopefully Trout will be targeted, as Pennsylvania is a short distance from here. Am Loving tying the different Patterns for Trout. Enough for now. Thank You so Very Much for This Site.

Every time i go Fly Fishing i think back to living next to the Birkholms in Washington. I'm sorry that i had to sell our house and move away to Necedah, Wisconsin, but i'll always remember my good friends and neighbors "The Birkholms". I learned the RYTHM and ART of Fly Fishing from them,along with the "BROOM STICK THEORY". I am passing this heartfelt knowledge on to my two sons Joe and Chris who talk about "THE BIRKHOLMS" alot while we sit on the banks of the Wisconsin River and practice catch and release. The boys are 13 and 14 now. Some day my boys and i will be able to go fishing with "THE BIRKHOLMS" when our travels take us back to the untamed Pacific Northwest where we lived for 9 years and i can jump on "THE BIRKHOLMS" back deck, the outside motion detector light comes on, the dog barks, and jumps off the couch,and Jim say's "WHAT'S UP MAY".

BTW, I am starting on building a new rod, which I want to make as a 4 or 5 piece - are there any sites/tips out there I could access? JT

I'm 80 years old wheelchair confined, haven't been able to fish for the last 10 years, but I started tying Saltwater flies shortly after that. Now I started tying Freshwater Streamers, Carrie Stevens type, to maintain my sanity, with winter appraoching will limit my going out, and finding this site, is a remarkable find, I have already learned a few tricks in tying streamers. I sure I will be burning the midnight oil many nights on this site. Thanks for a wonderful start on my new project. Joe

Gidday from the Northern Territory. I am new to fly tying and was looking for help on saltwater flies, the sort of thing I could use for Barramundi. I found your website and despite its focus on mainly freshwater and trout, it is full of information, freely provided. I have found it exudes a warmth and friendship which keeps bringing me back. Thank you

I have just stumbled onto this site while looking for information on woven flies. I have recently learnt one or two techniques using this concept and find it fascinating. This site has really great comprehensive and detailed instructions in the tying section... I will definitely bookmark and frequent often. Anyone who wants to share knowledge on woven fly techniques can email me at mongis@mweb.co.za

You have a wonderful site with excellent information for new fly fishermen like myself. I decided to take up fly fishing after 65 years and a year fighting colon cancer. I thought that when I was finished with chemo therapy I was going to do a few things I'd been putting off...like fly fishing. BEST DECISION I'VE EVER MADE BECAUSE I LOVE EVERY MINUTE ON THE WATER. At any rate, I appreciate the help offered here and will be back often. THANK YOU.

To: Gerald E. Wolfe I have just read your "Trout Openers" from "Readers Casts' May 10th 2004. I invite you to join us for the Michigan "Opener" at "Bear Track" campgrounds on the "Little Manistee River" in West central MI. Our "Gang" owns the campgrounds and the "River"!! (All 7 of us!!) Very few take advantage of the pristeen though primitive facalities and the Beauty of the River. It's a wild river, not for canoers, full of snags and deadfalls.

I love your website. I found it through another website discussing a work at home fly tying company. I live in Largo, Florida with lots of fresh water lakes around. I am a disabled lady with lots of time on my hands and am venturing into "Fly tying" for fun, not profit at this time, because it looks like fun and a great challenge. My brother is giving me a bass boat built in 1989 by a World War II Vet, which is made of solid wood and has never been in the water except for testing. It has a depth finder, 2 bait bins, outboard & a trolling motor. I cannot wait till he gets here this weekend with it. I'd like to join your club if possible. Please let me know if I can & what you require from me. Thank-you for your time. Sincerely, Donna Robinson

Words cannot explain how great this web site is!!! I have used it for information to assist me with a beginners fly tying class I have been teaching for 5 years at the local college. This is the first year that I have spent a lot of time looking over all the other information that is on it and I am very impressed!! I just started fly fishing about 8 years ago. Before that I spent 30 years fishing bass tournaments and just got "burnt out" on them plus the lakes are just too crowded. A friend of mine put me on to fishing with a fly rod and the local rivers here that are stocked with rainbow and browns and I have been on fire ever since. Now I teach fly tying, and I do not consider myself that good of a fly tyier, to beginners and it has really been a lot of fun. I plan to join your site, if you all will have me, and I plan to try to get in a fly swap and add to the subjects discussed on the bulletin board. You all sure sound like a great bunch of people and are doing a great service sharing all your information. I probably will not join in until I have sent you $25.00. It just does not seem fair for me to have been helped so much by you all and not send something to say "Thank you". You should receive it next week since the holidays are here which will give the US "snail mail" an excuse for taking so long to send mail. Until then please keep up the good work.

I'm so glad to see that there is still a place left that sells American made flies! I've been living and fly-fishing in the Catskill Mountains for 28 years, and over that time, I've seen Catskill fly shops close up, one after another, only to be replaced by imitation fly-shops, that refuse to buy their flies from Catskill Mountain fly-tiers, and instead purchase flies that are tied in foreign countries, by people who have never seen the Delaware River. The West Branch Angler is a perfect example. Local, American fly-tiers might by more expensive, but they know the rivers, and the flies, and any shop that buys foreign flies is taking food off of the tables of American fly-tiers.

This past August "The Gang" made it's annual Summer camping trip to the Little Manistee River. I had the opertunity to give Casting lessons to the 10 year old son of a good friend and the see him catch is first Trout on a Fly!! He had a hard time picking up on the Casting, beat our camp site to dust for an hour!! But, wearing an adult set of waders and using a 6'6" 5 wgt caught a fish!! I'm about 1 notch above a beginner myself and would like to know if there is a book on basic Casting with pictures/drawings in an easy to understand format I could give to prospective/interested flyfishers? I've got Lefty Kher's but it is to valuable to hand out!! One of my "Students" actually spent over $500.00 on gear before making a cast! His first cast was that of a spining gear fisherman pitching a 3/4 oz plug to the middle of the pond!! He didn't lose much blood while we got the fly out of his ear!! A simple comic book sized instruction booklet may have saved him some pain and anguish. Thanks guys, keep up the good work!!

Great web site. I am new to the flyfishing "lifestyle" and am "hooked." Pardon the pun. My friends and I have started backpacking and flyfishing and both go great. Now I am trying to get into the tying and later I would love to build my own rod. This whole sport is great, because there is so much to learn. Thanks to you who started and maintain this site.

GREAT SITE!!! Other than an obsession with bamboo fly rods, found sites and articals that take me back to child hood around Grayling, Mio, Lovels and Lewiston, Michigan ( about 75 years ago). At that time we just refered to the general area a "God's Country". It was a 250 mi. drive every Fri. night but sure beat spending it in the Detroit area. As a first timer scaning FAOL found more great articals than I know what to do with on all aspects of bamboo fly rods. You have found yourself a new REGULAR READER. With the above said about Mich., I must admit, I have some of the greatest trout water right here in Colorado.

I catch trout,redfish,cobia and many other inshore species on fly. I am interested in some new redfish patterns to tie and fish.I welcome input from my fellow flyfishers and anglers. If you have some goood inshore patterns that you would like to share give me a shout. Thanks and good fishing.

I need a little guidance, has anyone fly-fished the Mediterranean waters specifically the eastern parts? If so, can you tell me about the fish found in those waters and the type of flies to take along. Thanks, Nabil

I am checking out a bamboo flyrod for a friend of mine and need some help tracking down information. I can only find this information. "I darisho Ueda Company Tokyo, Japan". "Type CS - B". It is a 3 piece with 2 tips about 8 1/2' long. But, it has a third tip that makes it a 2 piece 5 1/2' very stiff rod!!?? I appears to be in good condition. Anyone with any information please contact me at jhise@tucker-usa.com I will be forever greatfull!! On a lighter note. The 5th (maybe 6th) "Evart Gang" August campout at Beartrack campgrounds on the Little Manistee was a great time for all. The Skamani were in and had most everthing else spooked. Here I am with a brand new 3 wgt. and looking at miniture submarines crusing the river!! I strongly suggest that every Michigan area flyfisher visit this area!! FAOL - Thanks for being here!!

Hi, I`ve been led to your site through a book by Jon Beer "The Trout and I", which is a really funny read for those of you who enjoy such things. Having had a very quick look around the site I agree with him that it is packed with info. I`ve only taken up this sport in the last couple of years having been an occasional coarse fusherman, and have found it most frustrating and enjoyable in equal quantities, so need all the help I can get! I tend to fish in local man made waters, but would love to get into some wild river fishing. Keep up the good work.

I live in the University city of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. One of the research scientists offered me some flies (artifical) he had been doing research on. The coating on these flies were impregnated with a hormone intended to attract the trout. The hormone was released in the water and was supposedly intended to draw the fish to the fly by sexual attraction. Now at my age (I am retired) I can relate to this problem. I fulfilled my part and stood for my four hours and not a single attempt to take the fly. So 'Viagra' for trout is going back to the drawing board. As I have said I can relate to this problem!!!

I am a retired newspaper reporter. I have taken up fly-fishing again after twenty-five years ( mainly to combat arthritis). Being of Irish descent I decided to visit Lough Cullin in County Mayo and Lough Corrib in Galway. This is the time of the Mayfly and when the Irish use "Natural" flies (which are plentiful) to catch trout which are also plentiful in these lakes. There are three certainties in life, they are Death, Taxes, and the rain in Ireland. Because the life cycle of the Mayfly is about three days in which they mate, the male dies and the female fall to the water which causes a chemical reaction and she expels the eggs and then dies. The rain kept the female in hiding, waiting for the Sun. So on the fifth day of my holiday when the Sun came out there was a plague of female Mayfly making for the water and allowing the trout to frenzy feed. THe fishing was fantastic!!! I could have cast an old boot and it would have been taken. So anybody think that the fish are telepathic? Ain't nature wonderful. George Partington

My wife and I are just learning to fly at the age of 55. We are Coastal in our fishing and have fished with spinning and baitcasters only so far. We love to take our boat out and enjoy the water and wade fish. We don't even mind catching a few fish in the process but we are mainly catch and release. We are excited about learning something new. We just had our first casting lesson yesteday and it was great. We love your Web site. It is great for rookies like these two newbies. thanks

Great site, but my reason for being here is somewhat selfish. I am a salmon barrier supervisor on the Jacquet River. A small river situated in northern NewBrunswick, Canada. We`ve had a project on this river for the last 11 years protecting salmon. Getting to the point, we need financial support to keep this project afloat. So we are trying to sell tickets on a Chevy Aveo 2004. Tickets are 20 dollars a piece, in the event we don`t sell enough tickets to cover the cost of the car we will have a half and half draw. Hoping for some support. Yours Truly Sheldon Guitard

Well this is a great site! I enjoyed the knots section for sure. After using the perfection knot to perform loop to loop for easy changing of my tippets, I ran across a knot named the catch and release knot. Now I've been fly fishing for some time know, and I'm thinking, what the heck are they talking about. This knot will ruin any fly fishers day. Then I read the article attached and am still laughing about it. I thin It should'nt be called the catch and release knot, maybe just the release knot is more accurate. If you get one of these in your tippet, I can just about assure you that you won't catch this fish, but absolutley will release it. Ha Ha, very funny!!!

Have just acuired my 3rd antique cane rod. This one is a Granger Favorite in excellent shape. Can tell I'll have to practice casting since it's completely different from casting my graphite rod. The way I see it if I'm gonna fly fish I'm gonna do it like the ones before us. Again GREAT GREAT GREAT site. See you in the future Fishin Magician Vancouver Wa.....

Undoubtedly one of the most informative sites I have visited pertaining to fly fishing. Read about a Texas "Fish In" in 2003 I think....will there be another in 2004. As most of us Texans do...we fish warm water most of the time and get the op to fish for trout very sparingly....I enjoy seeing the areas of the great rivers of the NW and the quality of fish there. Great job, keep it up.

Found your site looking for flyrods. Enjoyed your article on Great Rivers in Montana. I have been fishing Yellowstone Park for a least eight years and your article still gave me new information. There is also abundant fishing outside the park. For those that like to hike, the surrounding mountain lakes outside the park hold plenty of trout too. My favorite are Golden trout. Maybe a future article. Great site. Good work.

From the basics to and including Atlantic Salmon flies. One thing I would like to pass along is the use of 14/0 thread from Hairline. It is as strong as 8/0 and half the size. I use it from size 26 dry flies to 7/0 blind eye atlantic married winged salmon flies. Thank You for Your website, I have learned quite a bit from Your many and talented tiers.

The "Green Weenie" is the best fly for beginners to tie and fish with. It is a simple design and works well when drifted all the way through a hole or area and then is retrieved with quick short jerks back to the rod. My son out performs me with this fly when I am fishing other natural looking nymphs.

FAOL is the BEST site in the world. Visiting your site is like going to the Public Library of Flyfishing. You deserve many awards for your hard work. I would like to say hello to Joe Sanders (Lotech Joe). Sharon and I were at the central WA. Fish-In. I was very happy to meet everyone. I would also like to thank Cary Morlan for all the help he gave us with our fishing. Thanks to Jeff from Spokane for helping me up after falling in Stan Coffin lake. Thanks, Doug

I would like to sya I love your site. In particular, I appreciate the detailed tying instructions, and the step-by-steps. One fly in particular was the green drake pattern. I had been looking for an easy-to-tie pattern with the angled tail. This pattern was easy to put together, and should take some big trout this summer for sure. Keep up the GREAT work.

I have come into possession of a South Bend 3 piece bamboo rod, that may have come out in the 40's or 50's. It has a serial number of 346. Anyone have any info about how I can find out more about this. First visit to this site. Have been fly fishing for about 57 years. My favorite stream in Northern Maine is now on the polluted list, and is a real mess. Can't get anyone to do anything about it. Any suggestions in that respect? May all our water be clean again, someday.

I have just started tying again after a 14 year hiatus. Why I did that I don't. I'm glad I found your Web Site. I fish very little trout. But very much enjoy tying for crappie, bluegill, and bass. There is nothing quite like landing a 6+lb. bass on a 8' fly rod with a fly you created. Keep up the great site, and thanks for creating it.

I have ZERO experience in fly fishing but my father-in-law-to-be has been in it for - well, probably before I was born. So, I'm jumping in. Learned a little from an old video he sent to me, but THIS site was strongly recommended to me by the "Fly Fishing Guy" at a nearby Bass Pro Shop. I even spent a little time in the chat. Anywho, thanks for putting this together. I know I'll be back frequently as I learn more.

It was a pleasure to speak with someone who is knowledgeable regarding fly fishing and someone so willing to share that knowledge. Being a novice at fly fishing, Steve's willingness to speak to me and share some of his "secrets of success" has helped me tremendously. He also informed me of this web site which will assist me for years to come. Thanks Parnelli!!!

Hi Mate, You kindly left a pattern of a surface lure for Sea Trout on a flyfishing forum, so the least I can do is to sign your guestbook. I am going to fish with the lure in both a black and a white, and I will let you know how I get on but I won't be using the lures until the month of April. Thank you very much for the help, and have a nice day. All The Best. Reeco

Thanks for your site. Anytime people congregate and discuss fly fishing subjects everyon always knows what is "best" and what is "ho-hum" and I am glad it is that way, wouldn't it be boring if everyone liked exactly the same thing. What THIS site does that many try to do, is to give a to present facts and let the reader make the decisions. Thanks for your honesty in presentation

A couple weeks ago while on a cross country trip, I had a chance meeting with Al Campbell in Rapid City, SD. Being a novice, Al steered me towards Fly Anglers Online. Also being in the computer/internet business, I knew that Al was really full of it. No site could be that good! Maybe it isn't, but it sure fills every need I have and then some. This a very content rich web site. Thanks Al.

I live in central Pa. I occasionally fish Clarks creek, Yellow Breeches creek, Small streams and Pine creek in Tioga county in north central Pa.for trout. Mostly I fish the Conodoguinet creek for Smallmouth Bass and panfish. I enjoy fishing farm ponds for panfish and bass. The last few years I have attempted to catch Carp on a fly. It has been a real challenge. I caught about a 15 lb. carp in front of my house last summer on a wooly bugger with an 8 wt. rod. what a fight. Carp are as spooky as bonefish in the clear shallow waters of the Conodoguinet creek. Try it some time.

I have been hacking around flyfishing for over 30 years. I live a short drive from the Pere Marquette, Little Manistee, Manistee,The Pine (too many canoes!!), Au Sable and almost on top of the Muskegon River. This past year I was "retired" and started looking forward to more time on these rivers. So, I am taking fly tying lessons and checking your site every day to glean more information. Keep it up, it's great.

I don't know much yet but by May I should be able to point someone in the right direction as to where to fish in this area. It would be an honor to have some of you that might be coming to the area to fish together. Drop me a line. Thanks again for the sight! fred

Just wanted to take a moment to tell you what a most excellent site you have. Looking forward to talking with you in person, this Spring when we travel to Kalamazoo. Who knows, maybe we can even try to catch a Northern Pike or two @ Porter Lake in the UP. Keep up the good work, tight lines and gentle sunsets.

I am sitting here in my home on the banks of the Otter creek. The creek is a rock hard highway now paved with ice. Below the ice the trout and chubs are safe from almost everything except the otter and occasional mink that awaits at the rare opening in the ice cover. Earlier in December my friend and I reduced the fur bearer population by one bobcat and two fishers that were plaguing the local small game. Their demise came swiftly with the action of a 220 connibear trap. The otter will be harvested in a similar manner shortly. With the tempretures dipping below zero it is a pleasure to find your site at the beginning of the fly tying season.

i figured somthing else right after i submitted the last bit. see, in my neck of the woods, its an all too common sight to see a 3 foot spincast Snoopy rod loaded with 25 - 30 lb Mason hard mono. it annoyes me. i never use anything higher than 10 lb test on my spinning rod, and the fly rod ussually sees a 4lb tippet, except when fishing for pike or walleye. i know people who use 30 lb for 3-6lb pike, and 2-4lb walleyes,called pickerel here. ive heard statements like,"yep,up at turtle lake there, hooked a 3pound jackfish(pike)on the 3o lb test, set the hook an' the bastard didnt even fight! them lazy f-ers." this is stupid, becaue a small pike has no chance on a line stronger than some chains. i wish everyone would use light tackle. makes the sport more enjoyable. kyle

Al and Gretche, They are a great contributor to trout fishing and the trout fisherman around the globe have enjoyed the many articles that they have written and I enjoy thier article's that other trout fisherman have sent in to fly fishing magazine.I go to my sister's house for sunday dinner and pick the magazine from Dick's sporting store their and enjoy the fine article's and fly tying pattern's from other tier's . I fish lake erie and the grand river when not working and have about an hour drive from my house to the lake.I will be retiring the end of this month and will have time to fish a lot more. I'll be calling it quit's after putting in 39 and 1/2 years in the steel mills. I hope I will be lucky and get the free drawing for the fly tying package it will keep me busy and active. Keep up the good work and I will be checking out the results of the drawing and hope I'm the lucky winner . Have a good holiday and I sure will be looking forward to visiting your web sight often.

This is what I was looking for two years ago and now can double check some of my flies to see if I have learned some of the benifical techniques he shows.

I like fisheyesoup.com's search function where you get related reports, articles, or photos. Also, maybe include a photo gallery of catches by readers?

I have had a passion for fishing all my life, my wife would consider it lust at times. I recently decided to pursue the ultimate in fishing satisfaction "The Fly"! I learned a lot just browsing through some of the articles written on this page and hope to learn much more. Big thanks to Robert MacMahan for turning me on to this website.

Just stumbled on to your site. I've been flyfishing for nearly 40 years, but let it drop off a few years back. I'm starting to get the urge again, so I was wondering if there is any one particular time when people hit the chat room? I usually float fish. I own a 13' Maravia that I use on the Beaverhead, Big Hole, Madison, Jefferson mostly. I also like to float tube the mountain lakes and fish the mountain streams. Will someone let me know about the chatroom? Thanks

Stumbled across your site this week, sure glad I did. For some reason I hung up my fly rod 7-8 years ago... but you guys have really given me the bug. Our season is closed here on the East Coast, but you can bet your bottom dollar that I'll be visiting your site often, and I'll be flying in the spring. Thanks again

An exchange visitor from Japan, living in NJ, I liked the quotation on your first page on the best website on fly-fishing I ever saw! (Was it wrong that I laughed?) Anyway, people overseas ought to learn good things about the US through fly-fishing--all these great experiences this country is giving me, a novice (one-year) US-style fly-fisherman, all these great stories about beautiful American trout and patient "coaches," the stories I will tell my countrymen, which are perhaps the greatest prevention from another PH! :) Thanks for the great informative and friendly site.

Finally getting a chance to get back into flyfishing and Fly tying. This site is without a dought the best one I have found. It has been a great refresher and the Fly of the Week is truly great. Being in the south I have been focusing on Bass and Bream. Last fished for trout in the Sierras up on Hat Creek, then got caught up in the Silicon Valley nonsense. Great to be semi-retired and living a much lighter life style. I fish nearly every day in my neighbors two ponds. It gives a great chance to try out new patterns and to see how poppers etc. float. Keep up the good work.

Love the site. Fly of the week is always a treat and sometimes a challenge, but always welcomed. Now to just find more time to tie and fish, and shed that ugly imagine of a work-a-day person. Rather be fishing and sitting by the water musing.

I went to an auction sale Saturday,and got bombed out by a large crowd of more knowledgeable collectors and dealers on a large quantity of Hardy gear, but managed to buy one lot of 3 items,a line dryer, a modern fly tying vise,and, third,the most magnificently machined,gun blued, Paul H. Young portable fly tying vice,in about 90% original blue,with bronze fitments, an absolute wonder to behold,simple,elegant,and utterly awesome!!!! When I got home I sat and looked at it for hours,and began to appreciate the work of a master.I would love to find out more about this vice,and thank in advance any who can help. Thanks,Tom

He taught me to fly fish in Rangeley 20 years ago and I have many great memories with him at his 'secrete' spots. Any help would be great. Thanks. Brent

G'day from down-under! What a great site to visit since we are all bored stiff in Tasmania at present with the wettest winer in years, the rivers all running coffee coloured bankers and too early to fish the highland lakes. Ah well, it won't bee too long and we'll be fishing dries to a heavy, (hopefully) hatch of red spinners. Tight lines and wet nets to you all.

Great site!, Was "snagged" into the world of fly fishing many years ago by the late ,great Ned Grey of sierra tackle, where he "convinced" my young bride to purchase for me an Orvis Midge/Nymph bamboo rod. Been at it since , but, only used that rod on one trip to Yellowstone and then it was retired. It's such a lovely rod, but I keep it close by to remember Ned and the wondeful times with it. Prefer my graphites and "older" S-glasses, sorry for ramblin on, but one question, Does your Canadian friends have any input on some of the Kamloops lakes, haven't been that way for many years and would love to visit again next year. Once again wonderful sight.

Hello Eric--- I like this website-cartoons-fly fishing basics. The tie of the week and the picture of the flies. I live on the world renown Little Red River.---The world record Brown Trpit-40lb.4oz. was caught up the river from where I live, by Rip Collins. I got to meet him, and in fact he is the one who started me tying my own flies. He had a mobile home about 300 yards from my house. We sure lost a fly fishing buddy when he passed away. I am still looking through all the things you have on this web site keep up the good work.--Thanks alot--Doug Beggs on the Little Red.

I've been coarse fishing for carp for years, now I can let loose with the fly. Great site and congratulations on the quality product for all flyfishers wherever they may be. Tight Lines.

Love the site...Does anyone have a lead on where one can buy "knotless" nylon netting in black, Memphis net and twine is my closest net supplier and their's is either white or it has to be treated, I have some concerns about what effect the treatment might have on fish as these type treatments are intended for commercial fishing use with no intentions of release. May your days be filled with shooting line and whipers on the water. Stevo

I have always enjoyed "bug" fishing in the late afternoons and moonlit nights for bream, and have been very successful with this technique. Now it is time to move on to another way and I feel fly fishing is the way to go. If anyone has any pointers on equipment, lines, flies, etc. please let me know.I live on the coast so I may even adventure into some saltwater fishing with the fly rod. Thank you for this wonderful site.

Just enjoyed Jim Clarke's story about his trip to Alaska and the sockeye fishing he had. Thanks Jim! What a great story! What the sockeye (or red) salmon lacks in prestiege, it more than makes up for in fight and fuss! Personally, I prefer a bright silver sockeye fillet for dinner than any of the others. Glad you got to enjoy a bit of fishing in my home state. If you're ever coming back, stop by southeast AK here in the early fall and I'll show you some silver fishing on flyrods that will make your head spin! Thanks again for the article. Tight lines, Phil

My wife looks at me like im crazy when im at my desk tying.Just want to say thank you! Keep up the fantastic work.O by the way my biggest steelhead was 33" on a pink glow bug i tyied my self.It feelt great to catch a fish like that on something you tyied yourself and to release her back into the water was even better.Thankyou for all the information on this website.keep it coming !!!!!!!!!!!

Hi all. I'm into my 50s now and happily remember spending summer time with an expert Fly Fisherman, my uncle, from Albuquerque. He's had me up and down all over the southwest hiking to streams few men got to. That was over 30 years ago, but I still fish locally. I am planning to make a pilgrimage back to my FF roots in the 4 Corners area soon. I do my own Fly Tying and enjoy that almost as much as fishing.

I have started fly fishing again after a 20 year "break"! Saw your FlyAnglersOnLine.com ad in the Spring 2003 issue of "The Canadaian Fly Fisher" magazine. You have a VERY informative WWW-site! I especially appreciated the "Fly Tying" section with advice and lessons on getting started! I feel much better prepared to make some informed purchases. Your on-line fly tying lessons for beginners (and intermediate) are the best I have seen. Although, I will still likely take a hands-on lesson at my local fly shop. Keep up the good work! I expect to be a regular visitor to your WWW-site.

I have been enjoying the fly tying and patterns very much these last couple of years and now i have discovered Marv Taylor. I should say Re-discoverd as i have a two older "but great" books by Marv "float tubes fly rods and other essays" from 1979 and Float-tubing the west from 1995. I have enjoyed these books over the years and am happy to see that Marv is still active.I will read all of his articles from the web site . Thanks for being there.

I been looking & reading this for four days now :) lots of info here too much to obsorbe all at once. Lots of anglers don't fly fish here. I live close to the Ohio river. it is a hot spot for big stripers when the river is right,I am going to try to learn this fly fishing stuff? I have a few old fly rods I had for years I got them ready to go. I also got me some tapes on fly fishing, I think I could get addicted to this :) Thanks for all the information that is here it is interesting to read it all, before I start on this journey.

California in last March this state was so short of water the People of San Diego & Los Angles were sure all to die of thrist. As I write this on May 2 the ski results have something of 180% of average. Shasta dam, our largest dam, is releasing 26,570 cfs. Miracles still happen in California.

Using windows me I found if I right click on the topic and highlight all then right click again and select print check print all documents associated and all pages, it will print out all the info that comes up on the screen instead of just the left hand column...Im entering this just in case there are other dummies like me around somewhere.

This is a great site for both experienced and those new to fly fishing and fly tying!!!! I had given up fly fishing and fly tying when I meved to Sough Carolina from Pennsylvania about 10 years ago to take up golf (not much in the way of fly fishing for trout here in SC). It took we this long to figure out that was not a good move and I'm back doing what I love to do, fly fish for trout. I found your site when I got back into fly fishing and fly tying. This site is at the top of my "favorites" list. Keep up the good work.

At the last fly tyig semanar here in Boise I came across a guy that had a great Caddis fly imatation,the only thing that made this fly realy stand out from the other patterns was the wing material. Bearhair It had the airadesence of the real fly so much that I had buy some and tyed up a bunch for myself. Have not had a chance to use them yet but I know they will be a real kicker on the South Fork of the Boise. Just thought some of yopu might be interested in giving it a try

You were right Big Al: This IS the best dang fishing site on the web. Thanks for all the great info for us novices. Growin' up a 'Michigander' along Lake Huron, I was raised on baitcasting, trolling, and spinnin' for big-water breeds. Here in the 'Wild West' it takes a lot more finesse to snag a respectable fish, but oh, it's worth it! Best therapy ever. Been chuckin' flies for about 6 years now, so I'm still just a beginner. Lots of 'training' still to go--can't wait for the ice to break on my favorite creek!

Hello, just checked out your site for the first time and after seeing the overwhelming amoutn of info availabel it won't be my last visit. Having fly fished for several years in Ontario, I sort of branched away and became somewhat of a loner, prefering the wild backwoods to the crowded trout streams. I also started pursuing the so called alternative species like bass and panfish. Most recently I started hunting pike and musky in the wilds of Ontario. Your site has provided me with so much info on fly patterns and the fish themselves it is now the first place I go when I'm looking for help. Thanks for such a great site and keep it going. Tight lines to you all. Rob

Re "trash fish" - some of the best fun I've ever had fishing has been while catching (and, understandably, releasing) trash fish. I'm not such a great angler that I can call my shots - I'm happy with any fish that bites. Creek chubs, trout, carp, bass, buffalo, and bluegill are all fish as far as I'm concerned, and all get the same respectful treatment.

I like this website. I do have a question though. I do not have a boat, but I have been wading the Indian River at Ft. Pierce for my entire life, and now I live in DeLand and have no idea where to park so that I can wade in the Mosquito Lagoon. Can someone please e-mail me and tell me places to wade in the New Smyrna area. Thank you Robert Rovinski smokinatstetson@hotmail.com

I heard about your site from my fishing buddy and he heard about it form his son-in-law. I became re-interested in flyfishing after about a 30 year absence. It is hard to fish with flies when everyone else uses bait on a small boat.

I came accross your site some time ago and am very impressed with its wide range of information and scope. I would like you to know that I live one block away from the Elbow River and ten minutes from one of the greatest trout streams in the world, the Bow River. I have fished them for many years and they only seem to become more productive as time goes by, or perhaps I'm getting better at this great sport of fly fishing. Come visit God's Country some time.

Hi, I've been enjoying poking around the FlyAnglersOnline Web site. I found some valuable information on tying dry flies for Atlantic salmon, eg, the Royal Wulff. Getting the wings upright and spaced properly is a pain. I'm also interested in rod building -- I've built a couple and have another 3 wt. project that I'm working on. I'm sure I'll be back to the FlyAnglersOnline Web site again for how-to tips on fly fishing. Brad "Flyfsh2"
