lostnwilderness 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2012 Howdy everyone! New on here. I have been fishing for 31 years fly fishing for 23 of those. I got started fishing when I could barely stand. I am not species specific - if it pulls, I will fish for it. South Appalachian Brook trout are my favorite. Fist time I ever messed with trying to tie my own flies I think I was 13 or 14. I got good at the infamous woollybugger but never progressed past that. Fast forward to present day, I am fishing twice a week and finally decided to start tying my own. It is most definitely an art and unfortunately, one that I don't think will come easy. I have most all of the tools I need and picked up the Orvis book as a general guide. As I am sure I will be asking a ton of questions, I thought I ought to introduce myself and say hi. Thanks in advance for all of your help! Forums like this one are amazing resources! -lostnwilderness Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
