s&h green stamps 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2014 Sound advise, I'll start taking notes from the tutorials also I'm planning to go to any local fly tying shows. Mike, I'm not getting that thrill when I get a hit like I did when I was a kid. I'm planning to learn tying and catch trout with flies that I've made. This must give a person a sense of accomplishment. Heck It's tricky catching fish on live bait. Gary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikechell 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2014 One thing I love about fly fishing. I fish relatively small flies all the time. Rarely will I tie on a large fly. With the small flies, you never know what will hit it next. Might be a 6 inch Bluegill, or a 6 pound bass. I get a rush from every hook set I make on a fly.
