A Few Selected Tidbits On Fishing For You

- Tip #52: Sticking with the Basics

Try to stick to the basics whenever possible. This means carrying one or two small boxes of flies with you and fishing them to death. Many experts use only a floating line for most of the fish that they catch and they make a point of keeping their tackle to a minimum. Many novice fly fishers fall into the trap of using too many "new patterns". Stick with a pattern and fish it for around three to four dozen drifts. This will bring you the best results.

- Tip #63: Fly Fishing for Salmon - Check the Tail End of Pools

Make sure that you check the tail end of pools as well as the neck area. Salmon like to congregate in this area so you'll usually find more than an abundance of fish.
