I'm headed up to Roscoe next week. In checking out the reports they list the many varieties of mayflies but only say "caddis". What caddis, color and size would be best? This will be my first time fishing the area. Thanks. Leadhead

Nice day at the TCA. A good brown and two heavy bows. Black buggers and BHGRHE fooled them. Find the faster water. The leaves are a killer in the slow water, making a smooth drift almost impossible. Quite a few others fishing there also. Nice weather will do that. Will have to explore more when...

While fishing the Musky today I got attacked by a crazed goose. I must have gotten too close to a nest and the next thing I see is this goose fly down the river aiming right at me. He knocked me into the river and kept comming after me. Damn bird wouldn't let me get to the bank. I had to shuffle...

Anyone know where I can get fawn fox fur? thanks, lh

Hit the bfb below 206 for a few hours(12-3). Picked a few small browns in some fast waster w/ a zebra midge. One nice brown on a PT emerger in slow water. A little topwater action going on. Saw a big stonefly nymph crawling on the bank.

Got out Sun morn after work, hit the Musky TCA for a few hours. Water temp 38, air temp COLD. One nice rainbow LDR(crappy hookset). Hit on Ice cased caddis(I tied mine in brown) that was posted on this site from TPO. My first time there, nice looking spot, saw no one else, but the area got...

Got to the bfb at about 8:30. Started out below the lot off 560 about 1/4 mile below big pool(Werners?). Water was 42. Worked down stream and tried just about everything. Nothing. Decided to give the pool a shot on my way out if it wasn't too crowded. Only two guys. One had a spin rod...

got to the bfb at about 8am today. looked like a tailgate party going on at the first lot. shot up the dirt road, much many more fishers. was able to find some "quiet" water. lots of big stockers, very little interest in my flies. had a couple of short strikes and foul-hooked a small brown. got...

If any one is interested, I was at the Gander Mnt in Middletown NY today. They have some name brand fly lines for 50% off marked price. Mostly WFF, brighter colors, many different weights, fresh and salt water. I picked -up some Orvis for $20...

I will be staying near the Narraguagus river in Milbridge,Me. next week. I have never been in this area and have no idea what to expect. Any help w/ fly selection or local shops to stop at would be a great help. thanks, leadhead

Does anyone out there fish the big D near the Dingmans bridge? How's the action in that area? Any advice would be apreciated. thnx, leadhead

I will be in Patten Me. for a week in August and then going to the coast by Millbridge for a week. What kind of fishing can I do in those areas? Will there be stripers at the coast? I am not opposed to throwing bait or metal as I will also have my 80 yr father and 5 yr son w/ me...

Just purchased my first pair of stocking foot waders, now I need boots. Do I bring the waders w/ me to the store to try them on w/ the waders? If I decide to buy online, do I go a size or two up from my normal size shoe? Also I was looking for suggestions on streamer patterns and sizes for...

Was at the Big Flatbrook, three bridges area on wends. I thought this was fly only, but saw a spin-fisher and the garbage that goes w/ the bait-fishers. I fished there alot last season and thought I saw "fly only" signs and never saw anyone other than a flyfisher. Did this change or was I...

I would like to try wading the D around the Dingmans Bridge area. Any suggestions for where to go, what to target, what patterns to use. thank, leadhead:beer:

Anyone fish this weekend? I know rivers were way up and rain was steady, but I had to work so I didn't get to try for myself. Feel like I wasted two days, I wanted to know if I missed any action. leadhead:beer:

I'm a newbie so be patient w/ me. I've heard that junglecock is an endangered species, so finding it is impossible/illegal.Is this true? If it is then why do so many recipes call for "junglecock or substitute"? Can someone recommend a substitute please? I'm mainly refering to cheeks or eyes...

I'm looking for a recipe for a beadhead agrivator. Someone mentioned it a few weeks ago but I can't find it anywhere. thanks:beer: leadhead

Has anyone out there ever fished the Waywayanda Creek or the northern part of the Walkill( the part that goes thru the wildlife preserve)? Was at the bike trail off Canal Rd at Waywayanda, a guy said he saw some large carp swim past but had no other action. I think the state stocks this area...

I plan to fish the Big Flatbrook fly-only area in the rain on Sat. Can anyone give me some hints on what to use. I'm fairly new to fly fishing and have never fished the flatbrook. Any help would be appreciated. leadhead
