The Weather is a Changin’: time for fly fishing
Find Spring here....
In April in NH fishing season begins. As a young girl my father used to take me fishing. We fished everywhere, on streams and brooks, on rivers, and seawater flats, on lakes and ponds. If there was water, and we had access to it (except for polluted rivers, etc.) we went fishing. This was great for me as I loved being outside in nature. I also learned self sufficiency, a little patience a nd a lot of problem solving.
If I got tangled: it was my problem. I had to land my fish alone. I had to bait the hook, often with the worms I had dug up. I had to take the fish off the hook. I did not however clean a fish until my 20’s.
My father also loved to fly fish. So I curious about an ebook I found on fly fishing. If you don’t know anything about fly fishing, go watch the Movie: A River Runs Through (it). Here are a few tips.
1) You are going to get. You’ll need big boots. Google fly fishing supplies.
2) You need a special flyfishing rod and reel.
3) Be careful of drop offs, rivers often have strong currents.
4) Rocks can be great friends.
5)Study up on flies that will make the best “lures”.
6) Eat the fish you catch. Otherwise why torture them???
