I have a North Fork Outfitters - McKenzie Drifter pontoon raft for sale. The raft can be converted from a two man to a one man raft utilizing a second u-shape pontoon. So, either set-up - one man...
Thanks guys for your advice. I appreciate you taking the time to help with my decision.
Have a great day!:smile:
With the increase in population in middle Tennessee and maybe some increased interest in stream fishing, the local trout streams continue to get more and more crowded. In the past, I would just...
Looks like a great group, good food, and good times. I am sorry that I missed it. Maybe I will make it in 2018.
Maybe that will keep them away Flyman. Sorry to hear about your hip problems. Of course, those things happen after 100 I suppose. I would not know since I still have 71 years before I get there.
Thanks David.
I totally forgot that in Flyman's North Carolina there are no fish just lots and lots of fishermen casting for the joy of casting. I also forgot that he says it is much too far...
David,
Great pictures and report as always. I have not used a glass rod, but I do use Orvis Superfine rods for fishing in the mountains. I have a 4wt and a 3wt. I was using the 3wt this...
Did I repeat your comments or something? I did not see a post from you on this thread. Sorry if I did. I just did not want someone to waste their time in a place that has few fish, is crowded, and...
There are no fish there. I have fished there a few times. Based on my experience, I would find another place to fish. There are too many Harley's, and too many people walking around in the stream....
I talked with a guide in a shop in Cody when I was out there recently - yes again Flyman - and he said they will just let this run its course. He said they needed some higher water levels and cooler...
Flyman,
I knew I would here from you. I am here with the wife who does not fish😪. So, I am hiking about 8 miles per day. On Monday, I got to drive up the Lamar Valley and watch a few hundred...
Too late, I am already here. We drove from Livingston to Gardiner yesterday. The river is closed to all activity so it was strange not seeing anyone on the river. A lot of folks are loosing a lot...
Flyman,
I am not sure anyone would be interested in a book about How to Lose A Fish In Fifteen Seconds, How to Develop Poor Casting Techniques, or How to Drag During Your Drift. However, I...
Flyman,
My job is fly fishing guide critic so I have to travel and fish a lot.
I have many guides. I will be happy to provide a fellow MTSU guy one. I am in Montana fishing thi week. Send me a message at dwinningham@ccbwt.com and we can work out the details.
Dances with trout,
I have fished in the canyon there a couple of times. It is a beautiful place. I hope to go back again some day. Did you drive all the way through the canyon? There are...
Flyman,
I am glad you had a good trip. I would love any advice about Yellowstone. That is a real plus to have a son out there.
Bran,
I am all in. I am 57 and it seems I have less time and...
Flyman,
I am so sorry. I just saw your post. I went to Missoula. That is where I usually go. We had a good trip. We caught a lot of fish as usual, caught some 20 inch fish, and a couple...
Doc,
Have you had a chance to fish there yet? I am heading that way in a couple of weeks, and I would like any advice I a get on areas to fish or guide recommendations.
Thanks!
What color power bait? Should I use pink to match the worm. I always like to keep up with current fashion trends with my bait. I hate catching trout out of style. I think pink is going to be hot...
Do you think all the local shops near YNP sell only lead free flies? Should I tie the standard nymphs - prince, hare's ear, pheasant tails. I have fished in the park several times, but I bought the...
Hey Flyman,
Good to hear from you. I have fished in places where lead split shot was prohibited, but I was not aware that Yellowstone did not allow lead wire. I am going there next summer so...
I have made it a habit of visiting fly shops when I travel even if I am not on a fishing trip. I have visited shops in at least twenty states. LRO is by far the best I have been in. There simply...
Sometimes tears communicate more than words ever could. My eyes were filled.
Thanks for sharing and helping us with perspective.
