Atlantic salmon fishing on the fly can be a bit of a grind sometimes. That is to say, the days are long (can be long), one can walk and wade for miles ? and they salmon don?t always move to the fly. It is entirely normal for a beginner (or experienced) angler to get a bit discouraged from time to time.
There are days I wish I never caught a fish o a fly so I could catch the first one again. It is wonderful fun to watch someone connect with their first fish (on a fly, bait or whatever).

Jed!
I know how you feel. I am really lcky that I have the opportunity to bring so many newcomers and visiters to my home waters. It is just like new every time as I get to see the river and the sport anew through their eyes!
This coming weekend Liliane and I are taking her daughters and their hubbies fishing for 2 days. I should be quite fun!
