Favorite Warmwater species

Dear FTF Member,
Support FTF by Subscribing to Hatches Today! 2011 Issue - In Stock
Since 2003 FlyTyingForum.com has grown from a handful of people to 30,000 registered members and has become the largest fly tying community in the world. In 2007 I published the first issue of Hatches because I felt the FTF community could offer a printed magazine that far exceeds anything the fly tying world has ever seen published. To this day, Hatches is largely made up of articles submitted to me by FTF member and FTF will continue to play a large role in the future of Hatches. Hatches truly is a grassroots effort, unlike many of the other publications in circulation that have the backing of large media corporations. The future of both Hatches and FTF depends on the support of FTF members like you. For $7 a year, you not only help ensure that I have the resources needed to be able to offer you all of the features you enjoy today free of charge, you also get 96 pages of pure fly tying awesomeness that is worth the price by itself. Click Here for Subscription Info Thank You -Will

depending... if I feel like a meal in the mid to late spring time or teaching someone to fly cast and teh other basics, I have to give the nod to bluegills. Other than that its smallies... with the occasional pike mixed in. Let me tell ya, a 33" pike on a 5wt rod is a good time!

He told us about Christ's disciples being fishermen, and we were left to assume, as my brother and I did, that all first-class fishermen on the Sea of Galilee were fly fishermen and that John, the favorite, was a dry-fly fisherman.

Bass are my first choice most of the time, but in the waters I fish a mixed bag is always possible, so I never overlook any opportunity! I've caught some nice size panfish while fishing for bass, and even some Stripers in the tidal waters!

Of course I've caught some nice bass while fishing for panfish also! wink.gif

BDH, I have to express how deeply disappointed I am to not see pike as a choice in the poll. unsure.gif blink.gif dry.gif wallbash.gif

For that reason, I have to choose "Other".

Of course, bass are a very close second.

I clicked "Bass Species," but I'll go with some of the other guys and say that it can often be a toss-up between them and pike, and it is truly hard to beat tubing a glass-smooth pond in the evening for 'gills...
Here I go again, can't make up my mind, kind of like a woman (right BDH j_k.gif ).
