Hoover Dam In category Fly Fishing Written by Animeg Hi, I was hoping someone could please give me some info mainly on the trout fishing between Hoover Dam and Willow Beach. I'll be heading out there in November and my parents said they would make some time for me to fish, woohoo! I have searched the past posts about this, and they are all a few years old.

Trout fishing in the Drakensberg In category Fly Fishing Written by divin4fun I was taught to fish by an amusing fellow the Rev. James Cameron Chutter, author of the book 'Captivity Captive'. He was a great fellow for stories - he had one about being followed by a ghost car on the road from Underberg, everybody felt it likely that it was a spiritual car, a whiskey'd car if anything. So, I had several flies, some that I remembered, others invented since then, and I used all

Grayling fishing in France In category General Discussions Written by SGLB I hope that I am wrong, but I suspect that this forum may well be the last place I should go to for information on the above subject. Perhaps the picture of the bass ( it is a bass, isn't it ?) should have warned me, but I now feel that this is probably a US based website on the subject of fishing in that country - is that correct ? If not, then I'd like to exchange posts on the subject of fly

Striped Bass in Upper Delaware - Taking trout off as I land In category Fly Fishing Written by EEGuy Last weekend I was on the Upper Delaware trout fishing... I hooked onto a nice 16" trout below the Hancock Bridge. As I was brought it within 10 feet of me, a HUGE, at least 40 inch (fat, no idea what weight) striped bass took the trout off my line. Later that day down near the Calicoon Bridge, I was landing a similar Rainbow. I felt a tug and the trout jumped 5 feet out of the water... it ran
brook trout fishing in pa and dna In category Fly Fishing Written by Mutter I was out on my new favorite streams today . . . On the hike down I met a guy coming up the trail. I was glad to see him, because - there was a white Chevy Blazer at the trail head. I've never seen another human being on these streams, let alone a vehicle at the trailhead! I was paranoid that it was someone fishing, I peeked in his windows: he had written directions to the trailhead on the pas
Smoky Mountain Hospitality Update In category Fly Fishing Written by andylowe Okay, my entreaty and invitation for a fishing partner between October 29 and November 1 in the Tennessee/North Carolina mountain area was less than enthusiastically received. But I'd still appreciate the advice of anyone with an opinion as to good places for a flyfisher in the area for the first time to catch brook trout (and to a lesser extent brown and rainbow trout). Hiking to fish would be g
Matching reel and line/rod weights. What can one get away wi In category Fly Fishing Written by kaylie I am still baffled by the whole line/rod/reel weight thing. I have a 7 weight Hardy JLH Golden reel winging its way towards me from England to use on my old Fenwick 7 weight glass fibre rod. I have also decided to look for a cheap multi-piece travel rod to allow me to fish when hiking, and it would be nice if I could use the same reel. So, what is the lightest rod I could get away with using the H
WTF; I just wanna fish In category Fly Fishing Written by PChappell The local weather forecast in New England says it's going to be another shitty string of days, and there's not much light at the end of the tunnel. Although the temps are not too bad, the humidity is making outdoor life miserable. I went fishing last Saturday in this stuff, but I won't be doing *that* again soon - it absolutely sucked. trying <sigh>

PA fishing weekend,TR In category Fly Fishing Written by iker As has been reported, repeatedly, elsewhere, Pennsylvania is getting the same torrential thunderstorms seen throughout the east. My arrival into Coburn on Friday evening confirmed this, as Pine, Elk and Penn's Creeks all ran bank-full and murky. It seemed clear that a road trip was in order, but to where?

mosquitoes In category Fly Fishing Written by seb.gauthier I've never been a fan of bug spray, I try to avoid chemicals in / on my body. Except for the ones I like.

I'm not going again without protection. What do you guys use? Are there any natural-type m
old fenwick rod In category Fly Fishing Written by kaylie I need some help from you fly fishers out there. I want to try to take up again fly fishing for trout. I have a rod I bought for the purpose when I was a kid. It's a cheap 30 year old Fenwick rod, made, I believe from glass fibre. It is 8 1/2 feet long and says AFTM 7 on it. I assume this means its "weight" is 7? My question is, would this be a reasonable rod to try fly fishing again after doing i

Long rambling post about travel rods.

Tapered vs knotted leaders In category Fly Fishing Written by stu from reading my previous posts, I`m a new fly fisher. I`ve seen several books that mention both, but with little explanation. I have been using store bought tapered. Easy to find, not too expensive and I don`t have to worry about making a good knot which I`m not proficient at tying yet. If you use knotted, can you tell me how you come up with the overall length as well as the segments.
