Fly fishing - Page 3

I believe they bring a few lengths of line along.  Anywhere from 1 - 1.5 X the length of the rod.  Line is attached with a quick slip knot so it's an easy swap.

 

I'm attracted to the simplicity.

Flyfishing for catfish, eh? How the heck do you do that??

Tie one of these to the end of the line.

I would guess wet flies and a fairly heavy weight rod.

If you include the girls you'll end up getting wupped as they seem to have an unatural empathy with the art!

Recently made this for a real enthusiast -see the blog for more. Tight lines, Tim Hardy263

Thanks and makingleahter is my other passion and living, just wish I had an excuse to get over there, but the airfare might negate the free fly fishing lessons. Great if you can watch or be taught by someone who really can cast. Andy Murray of Hardy's turns it into a real art form; with the wind or into the wind, no difference. Not sure he is any good at tennis though?smile.gif
