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?

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

Hey Shark! I think we're actually going to meet each other this weekend. I can't wait to hit the banks. There is a place called Mousetail Landing- fished off the banks once Saturday for 8 hours or so and just kept reeling in the crappies!

Yeah, they're fun to catch! We were catching a a fish on almost every cast! I don't have a boat yet, but I'm going to start shopping for something that is lightly used.

Mountainbikedike,

I love to go hunting, fishing and skeet shooting! But I no longer am one to go hunting like I used too. Now I just go skeet shooting, and fishing. Hunting in the cold is too much for my body nowadays. I just love being outdoors.

Waiting on the ice to melt and the bay to open up. Then my honey and I need to get our licenses for the year.
