| Re: hello from me Hi Morbid, Welcome...I'm new to this forum myself. I love fishing with the fly, and unlike other types of fishing (which I do still do) you don't need a ton of gear. I put all my fly's and tackle in my vest, pin a scoop net on my back and carry my rod for miles looking for the elusive 'Wild' brownie. Good luck and enjoy John __________________ Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day, Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. Per Ardua Ad Astra. |

| Re: hello from me Hi Morbid, once you catch you first on the fly, there`ll be no turning back, mine was a 6oz brown with a terrible attitude  . Welcome to the forum and ask away if you any need advice, I`m sure the fluff chuckers will try to answer. Peter |
