OK, I have got to tell you guys the story of how I started fly fishing. *A week ago my dad and I went to the Caney with a flyfishing club. *We got there and it was 33 degrees :P I was wearing a te- shirt, long sleeve shirt, two sweatshirts and a jacket and was still cold. :o I went to bed early with the heater in the tent. *That heater made the tent HOT! :o I got up in the morning to find out the dam was generating from 7 till 11. >:( >:( We were Mad. Finally after talking and learnig fly tips from the club we headed out. *That first day I stunk. *I hit the water every time I brought my rod up. *I also got attacked by bees and almost lost my fly. *Well that night I got a few more pointers and learned how to tie a wooly bouger. I had a big dinner to. Two bowls of tuna caserol and a steak and baked potato. :o I was full. We sat around the fire with the club and just had fun. *
* *
* The next day I did wonderful on my casting (No bees) ;D and my dad said I was doing great. *The thing is I lost every fish on the hook. *>:( *Then I went to spining rod and caught an 11" rainbow :) That night we got ready to leave and in the morning we left. *O yeah it was warmer the last two days. *
* *
* * I just wanted to tell you guys about my first attempt to fly fish, and hopefully my first fish will come soon. *I LOVE THIS SPORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D
