Thanks bfly. It has always perplexed me on how lazy people are when it comes to fishing. I had to do a lot of research on my own (and with a huge amount of help from this site!) before I finally figur ...

I was too busy trying to figure out how I was going to take out three big guys by myself....maybe next time though!!!

Well, I finally got a chance to go out fly fishing so I headed over to a stream that I have been overlooking for awhile. When I got there I was more than a little disappointed at the water levels. Mos ...

Great job! I haven't been out in awhile but these pics and story have me itching to get back out there!

Streamers,streamers, and streamers! Are you fishing the Ausable? I would pack plenty of streamers. Depending on the weather and what is hatching....early morning and late evening for dry flies. Ausabl ...

Hooah!

St. Croix ultra legend 4wt. It handles awesome and can take alot. I caught a 25 inch Atlantic Salmon the other day and the rod handled it like a champ.

Damn...just one? I would have to say Alaska. One is because of the amazing scenery and area wildlife and for two because it is one of the three states that I haven't been to...yet!

Again, absolutely beautiful fish and scenery! Love your posts!

Thanks Marcel!!

Thanks! It sure was fun! I never sweated so much trying to land a fish!

I went fly fishing the Salmon River today. I had only brought my st. croix 4wt because I wanted to mess with the little fish with some dry flies and nymphs. I was catching small salmon and rainbows an ...

I went three for four today on the salmon river. I tried to film while I was fishing by just letting it dangle on my chest. It captured what it captured. Sorry that it seems a little bouncy but it's h ...

Thanks! My son has been following me fly fishing since he was three. He caught a small brown trout when he was four with my fly rod but this is the first time that he actually did everything himself. ...

Here's a quick little video of my son Fly Fishing without my help. He always loves to go fly fishing with me so for his 6th birthday this past January, I got him a 5wt fly rod. He had a blast!!

Great pics and story as usual! Quick question for ya. What is a Roach? Around here we usually squash them with a newspaper!!

The first one here bit on a black stonefly. He wouldn't sit still for the pic so I hurried up and took one before releasing it.

Some parts are high but the average depth was about three to four feet. It was unreal. Wish I could have landed some Crying or Very sad

Just thought that you would glad to hear that I went 0 for 22 today on landing chrome! Laughing

I don't know what the heck that I am doing wrong but I couldn't get one even close to the net. Crying or Very sad

Oh w ...

Stop making me laugh guys!! My ribs are killing me!! Very Happy

Seriously, I have a free day on Friday. It's supposed to be 69 and partly cloudy, my daughter goes to daycare at 7 so I will be chroming it up ...

Man I hooked up with an absolute monster steelhead yesterday evening. As it was taking me deep into my backing I was following it downstream, walking along the edge of the water and the bank. I sudden ...

Great job! I always look forward to reading your adventures in Europe. I espeacially enjoy the photo's! Great job!

Nahhh....it sucks having chrome within walking distance Very Happy

I just wish that I knew what they were biting on! Laughing

Man I miss the density of lead. Seems like the choices up here are pretty slim in pickings. I will try that coke idea because I really hate how shiny they are. I also hate using a lot of split shot wh ...

Well, this is the only one that i managed to land today. We got a lot of rain the other day and the water was moving pretty fast. I hooked into one that was so big it took me deep into my backing and ...

Nice fish!! Hope that you get a chance at some of the bigger boys...I just submitted a story to Jeremy with some more pics and an adventure that I had today with my brother.

Since the first of April I have caught a tremendous amount of chrome. Here are some that I caught today using a brown stonefly. They aren't giants but I think that any chrome is better than none!
htt ...

Also, pay attention to water levels. The rocks can be tricky at any time of the year. I would advise a wading stick for the first timers to the Salmon River. The first couple of times I went I almost ...

Yeah I need to get to bed myself....here's a newer "improved" version of the editing that I did. It's a bit better could have done more but I am beat!

Thanks for the tips...I was just messing around with the program this morning. When I get a bit more time I will mess with the length of the pics/film and the effects of one pic to another. I browsed ...

Hey thanks for the heads-up on the movie maker. Here is a quick practice slideshow/video with the theme from the show The Unit. Kind of corney but hey it's practice!!

Hey, I was just wondering what editing software you use for your videos? Thanks for any info,

I can't wait to fish Maine one of these days. I am supposed to head up at the end of June for my wifes family reunion. I don't know if I'll be able to go now because of work but if I do you can bet I' ...

That is some awesome info hunter. I really appreciate the time that you took to respond. I am hoping that we will get similar results if/when (I am optimistic) the dam out here gets removed. Thanks ag ...

Great job and pics as usual!! Pike sure are fun to catch sometimes....espeacially on a fly rod! Great job!

Great responses. This is an interesting topic to me because I heard through the grape vine that they are planning on removing a dam in Ellisburg, NY at the monitor mills road. This would allow the ste ...

I just got my new Orvis fly fishing catalog and I see that they are trying to decommission the Veazie dam and the Howland dam to free up 1000+ miles of river. My question for the Maine Fishermen....is ...

I was going to ty some egg sucking leeches but I was out of material. I then looked over at my black dog and his long hair and I wondered if it would work....it did...my wife is going to kill me. We'l ...

Thanks. It was a lot of fun learning a new stream and tactics for it.

Nice pics and story. Is that a hatchery rainbow? The head looks a little deformed. I have caught some hatcery raised browns here before that are freaky looking. The kind of reminded me of swimming waf ...

Great pictures and story! I miss europe and when I am done with school my wife and I will have to make a trip out there. Thanks for sharing.

Great narration and pics as usual...do you guys get snagged up alot in the long grass when you are nymphing? Or is it only like that in the shallows? Thanks for sharing.

Yeah that's what I heard too. Up here we have been gettin a decent amount of rain...nothing special but the grass is still green. I hope that this heat cuts out soon and we get somemore though. I am g ...

On the Salmon River they delayed releasing water because of the lack of rain but will release it on labor day weekend. This should offically kick off our salmon season. Hope it's a good one.

Sweet story and pics...sadly my trip out west got cancelled because my Dad and step-mom are getting a divorce after 19 years! That trip into the airport does look crazy...I passed by it when I drove m ...

That sucks...I have done the same thing that Jeremy did but luckily I had some tape with me and taped the two together. It wasn't pretty but it beat not fishing! I have also driven off with my flies o ...

Thanks Marcel for the B-day wishes....age is a state of mind and if you ask my wife I am about 12!
I can't believe that I never knew that this site existed until I stumbled onto it last year...man am ...

I have found that fishing in the east is quite extrodinary...so the only saying that I can think of is "If your aunt had balls she'd be your uncle."

I have only been a member of this site for a little over a year so I often find myself reading past fish tales from adventures that I had missed. I have learned so much from this site and from all of ...
