Lets talk about fishing

I usually fish when I camp cuz I usually camp where there is water. I will wrap the fish in tin foil in a basket and cook it or if I haven't brought all of my camping gear I'll just cook it on a stick over the campfire. Sunny's huh? I've never heard that, cool!

Thinking of fishing as the days keep getting better and better

OK, I think of fishing all the time
Just waiting for a free day to go get a new license
Looking forward to casting out for the first time this year

Anyone fly fish? It is my new passion.... but, I am not so good at it! Any and all advise gladly accepted!

The first thing I am going to do on pay day next month is go get my 2010 fishing license! I am so ready to go fishing!

Good luck AtLast!!! I've always wanted to take a fly fishing class, just never had the chance to get around to it. I think if I were to give any advise it would be to try to match the hatch. I wouldn't worry so much about laying out the perfect cast but I'd try to put on the right fly. I think fish are concerned with their next meal, not perfect form!!!!

The days are warming and I'm starting to get the fever!!!! My boat needs some work so it looks like I'll be starting the season on the shore, but that's just fine with me!!! Just one bad thing, I've moved and I'm really going to miss my fishing buddy!!!! sigh Ahhh well, I'll have to call her when I'm reeling one in lol

I love fresh fish fried up and I've had it all my life. But the best tasting fish I've ever had was when I've had fish on our Canada fishing trips. The water is so clean up there (and we went wayyyyyy up there) that the fish just tasted better. I highly recommend that anyone who gets the chance should go!!!! I can't wait to go back!

Hi AtLast.. I fly fish. and love it. I took a class when I lived in the PNW. We would go to a local park every other weekend on a Saturday... fly fishing poles in hand.. and practice. It truly is an art. I am certainly not as good at it as I am with freshwater. However, it was fun to learn and quite peaceful.

I am so ready to go as well. Freshwater season opens April 1st here. I also catch and release. Our "fish to catch" is the rainbow trout. We have people that travel from Canada and across the US to fish here. I love that people camp up and down the creek and we also have food vendors set up along the long route as well.

Have Fun.

AtLastHome,

I am learning to fly fish. It is really hard to coordinate the casting part of it. I took a couple of lessons, but it is really relaxing to do once you get the knack of it down pat. My adopted sister gave me a gift for the last four Christmas' to a place in Farmington, PA called Nemacolin Woodlands Resort. There they have the Orvis flyfishing school. And that is where I took my lessons at. I only had 4 lessons, mind you. But I have found it to be really fun. I can understand why some folks actually spend hours casting in grass for hours trying to perfect their swing/cast as they say.

I'm in Nashville and fish the surrounding areas. I camp right on the bank at a place called Mousetail Landing (About an hour west of Nashville), and we fish all night.

Arkansas has some great stream/river fishing- I've fly fished it some.

I'm planning to go to the Little Rock Butch Femme Planet event in August. Anyone up for a little fishing? I could go a few days early and meet up with anyone who is interested.

I don't really have any butch fishing buds near me, but would love to get a regular fishing outting started up.

Anyone do any hunting?

sharkchomp · 03-15-2010, 05:28 PM

Hey Moutainbikedyke, i just moved to Nashville. Maybe we can get together and hit the banks? I'm a pretty simple fisherman. I can cast lures all day or I can bobber fish. I used to hate fishing with nightcrawlers cause the fish would steal my worms lol so I got determined and started fishing with night crawlers all the time. I'm pretty fair at it now

if you're interested, pm me for my digits
