Compitition Flyfishing isn't something I would do personally but if your into it, there really isn't anything wrong with it. As far as harming the environment, it couldn't be farther from the truth. The rules seem environmently freindly to the fish, and as long as they are followed strictly...

Like Andy and Allen said hands on is the way to go. If you allready know how to tye a certain style, be it streamers or let's say Parachute Dry's, then just watching and taking notes on what materials are used will be good enough. I'm going to be giving "hands on" lesson's starting in January...

These Caddis have been around for almost a month now in NJ. I took this picture on Sept 8th of this year. And this one was taken on Sept 22nd. Seems these Caddis have a good long hatching period. And they sure can take the cold well. When it was in the mid to upper forties the other night...

Don't Ya' just love what Mother Nature creates. No artist on this planet could recreate that in all it's splender.

What I think he's saying or should I say I know what he's saying. Jamie saying that Allbright is "DogShit" and he would never even think of purchasing one of their products ever again.:puking-smiley: And I have to say I agree 100% with him, their stuff is garbage.:down:

I hope it pours this week, because this is the week that the major streams here get their fish, It would be great if it rains like hell while the state is putting the Trout in.

Well it's that time of the year again and the streams are low as shit. You think they would delay this due to the fact that most if not all the streams that will be stocked this week are low. But this is NJ and "Common Sense" will not come into play here. Gonna be a field day for the Truck...

Andy, I've had nothing but bad luck with the Renzetti's, so I'm going with the Regal 200-10T rotary. Very smooth and well made.

That's threads and Ultrawire and in the "Whitey Casteel" box are jighead paint for painting beadheads and the eyes on Nymph Head beads.

Since I'm seeing and reading about everybody's Tying area I'd figure I would show mine. Mines out in my garage but all my materials are protected by Cedar dressers with a vented container of Mothballs in each drawer. Hopefully a new vise is in my future, because I'll be here after work...

Nice fish Cdog, but it looks now that my Dry fishing is almost done for the year. Just got sent out on a job today and next weekend I'm heading up farther north. But it's gonna be a nymph game, unless the heads are showing on the Battenkill, then it's game on.

Really, I don't think so Brian. As soon as that first head appears You'll be puttin' that floatant on your fly.

Dry's, Wets, Nymphs, Streamers, I fish em' all and love it. If the fish are on top, I'll be stalking them. If nothings happening on top I'll be throwing Streamers or Wet's. If it's winter I'll be nymphing and tossing Midges. No prefferance for this Fly Bum, just what the situation gives to me...

I know I'll be getting one, most likely in the next two weeks. But what get's me is that it's allway's the anglers that get hit to produce revenue. I heard that NY resident licences went up also as well as hunting licences. But we aren't the only ones who use the waterways of NY. What about the...

So if you see someone upstream with a Green Bay Packer hat on you "Know" he won't be leaveing:lol::lol:
