Obi 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2012 Hi everybody! I am new to this forum and just wanted shortly intorduce myself. My name ich Michael, I am 42 years old and I am located in Germany. In the Berlin-area, to be precisely My freinds call me "Obi" since I was a kid. Thought I could keep that nick I picked up fly fishing about two years ago, because of I promise I gave to my best friend and now fishing-buddy. He was a carp-fisher for several years and always wanted to introduce me to the sport. I was never interested in that kind of fishing and always replied that the only thing I might take interes in would be fly fishing. And my friend said: "Oh well.... " and sold all his carp fishing-equipment. Next thing we did was go shopping for fly fishing tackle...... A promise is a promise Any way - I really love the sport and started tying my own flies approximately 6 months ago. Some people say I made pretty good progress since then. Others can not follow my interest in fly tying..... that's life I guess. So here I am, and I am afraid I have a bazillion beginner-type questions to you guys. Hope to finde some support here, and looking forward to some good conversations here in the future...... Take care, Obi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Charlie S 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2012 Petri Heil Obi!!! When I was in the military in Germany I had many wonderful experiences fishing there in the beautiful waters of Bavaria. I was also a member of the Isar Fischer Verein. I know you will be very happy with this site and will learn a lot from the fly tyers who are here. They are very helpful.
