FlaFly 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2014 welcome, and tell us a bit about yourself so we'll know whom we're talking to. I see your favorite fish is smallmouth bass, so that means you're not from the deep south or the southwest. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OnlyFly 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2014 I am 15 years old, have been fly fishing for 7 years and tying for 3. Do mostly warm water fly fishing. Favourite flies are poppers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlaFly 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2014 well, now, you'd fit in really well in North Carolina or Florida. Lots of panfish to use poppers on. Don't expect much warm water up there for the next few months! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fisherboy0301 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2014 Nice to see more and more people my age on here! Welcome to the forum OnlyFly, I'm guessing you only fish with fly gear? Or only use one fly? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OnlyFly 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2014 Yeah most of the lakes up here are all ready down to mid/upper fifties. At least there is still really good pike fishing. And yes I only use fly gear. Prefer the fight over spinning gear, and the casting is quite fun as well (when I don't get a tailing loop). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corney 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2014 Great trout fishing also up in the Roblyn area. They have done a fantastic job with that fishery. What part of Manitoba are from? Welcome fellow prairie Canadian ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OnlyFly 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2014 Yeah the parkland lakes are amazing, lots of tourism from those lakes. I am from just outside of Beausejour. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corney 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2014 That is NE of Selkirk? If so there is a bunch of lakes to the East of there! I have been to a Hawk or Falcon lake many years ago by Kenora. I guess Lake Winnipeg would also be a big Fishery. My buddy lives at St. Norbert on the red river with big cat fish, not sure about flyfishing opportunities there?
