Fished the Driftless once, staying at a local lodge with a proprietor who assured me the rivers were not blown out after a couple days of rain. Only one river was fishable and I managed a few trout on a caddis imitation. The Driftless was about 3 hours away and the Lake Michigan tributaries...

I absolutely have referred to the fly fishing connection website and their hatch charts. My biggest thought behind posing this questions was for finding a few places that offer sufficient parking, legal access to the river and a place where I will see other anglers but not necessarily be right...

I was in a suburb not far from Chicago. I got to fish a few Wisconsin tributaries for salmon, steelhead and large brown trout.

Hello all. I recently relocated back to New Jersey after 8 years in the Midwest and want to finally start fishing some northeastern PA trout streams. I grew up fishing Pocono Creek in Bartonsville but never really fished any other of the Pocono streams. I just picked up my 2016 PA license and...

Fly materials have been sold.

I have a 9ft, 5/6wt Scientific Anger fly rod, coupled with a Ross Fly Start reel, loaded with Cortland 333 fly line I'm looking to sell. This rod has seen 1 day of use, in an attempt to teach my soon to be ex how to fly fish and, therefore, I have no real use for it. I'm asking $50 for the...

No dogs are bad....just a little misguided at times. I often get a laugh as my two sick their noses into the tote of materials to investigate all the different furs and feathers.

Thanks for the insight. The hackles are actually Whiting and Keough. I added 14 pictures of the items being sold. It's a mixture of materials, perfect for someone starting to tie and building up their supplies. I will admit, you are not going to find any $40-$50 hackles in the lot, yet...

Any interest? Within the lot, there are plenty of rabbit strips, dubbing, marabou, synthetics, Keough and Metz hackle, thread, etc. Materials fill a medium/large tote a picture, showing most of the materials on a table, is listed on Craigslist.

I sent you an email and, for anyone else who may be interested, the materials with a picture are listed on northern NJ Craigslist, under sporting goods. For whatever reason, even at a small size, I am having issues uploading any pictures to the site. Thank you.

Running into issues when I try to post a picture here. I have a picture on Craigslist and can email one to you as well.

You buying? I have no problem with a donation to the site. I used the site a lot when I lived in NJ, fishing Flatbrook. Now I'm in IL, out of work and looking to make a little money on the side to help pay for bills.

Unemployment being what it is, I figured I’d look through my books and DVD’s and try to make a little extra cash while letting the items go to others interested in fishing. I have many steelhead and fly fishing books and DVD’s. They are as follows: DVD’s -Scientific Angler’s Basic Fly...

I just wanted to pass this along to those interested in learning more about Tanner's condition and latest updates: Dear Friends and Family, I created a CaringBridge site to keep you up to date on Tanner Hrobak. CaringBridge is a nonprofit organization that helps friends and families stay...

Tanner is still struggling with cancer and treatments at facilities in Cincinnati and Boston, as well as locally in the Stuart, FL area. On a positive note, he is doing better than when first diagnosed but there are good days as well as bad. That is why this story and the creation of the fly is...

I know AKSkim but I just wanted to let others on the site know about the basic story behind Tanner Hrobak and children just like him, that dream of doing things like fishing instead of staring at hospital walls all day and waiting for treatments that make them sick to their stomachs. I really...
