I’ve fly fished once in my life - two years ago. Bought a Martin fly fishing rig, chest pack, flies, barbless hooks, eggs, extra line, the works. Took to it pretty quick following online how-to’s. Not too terribly different than all the other poles I own, in many ways. My wife and I rented a nice log cabin in the mountains for a weekend that was right on a catch-and-release trout stream. She said it was a hoot sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine and watching me hooking everything but trout - tree limbs, grass, logs.......tranquility and serenity with nature aside, I’m taking electric hedge trimmers with me next time and making it a fair fight. One thing anglers of all stripes know not to do: the ol’ ‘bow and arrow’ cast through a narrow sight window. Guaranteed to draw blood. Yours. LOL
