Fly fishing is an exciting and fast growing sport all over the world, and
especially here in the U.S.A. The reasons for the increasing popularity of
fly fishing are obvious. Fly fishing is enjoyable, relaxing, and rewarding
in many different ways.
Perhaps the most rewarding element of fly fishing is the variety of beautiful
natural surroundings in which anglers often find themselves; a secluded stream
up in the mountains, a peaceful meandering river deep in the forest, or a
tranquil blue lake somewhere out in big sky country. For some, it may be
the opportunity to test ones’ individual skill against nature - in an
intricate game of cat and mouse (but in this case, man against fish).
These are just some of the compelling reasons why many thousands of people enjoy the challenges of fly fishing every year.
For beginning fly-fishermen, however, learning fly fishing can be
difficult. We have compiled this ebook to give anglers, especially new
anglers, some guidance on how to get the most out of the exciting sport of fly
fishing. While there are many other resources available about fly fishing
on the internet, few of them touch on the techniques, tactics and strategies
commonly used in fly fishing. If these topics sound interesting, then you’re
in the right place because this book was written just for you.
We'll explore in detail the various fish most people fish for, we’ll cover
casting basics, how to read the water, how to take care of your gear, how to tie
knots, dry flies, and fly lines. We’ll also explore hatches, cover insect
entomology and much, much more. In short, this e-book will teach you everything
you always wanted to know about fly fishing! (maybe even more than you’ve ever
wanted to know)
Successful fly fishing involves lots of things, including having the proper
fly fishing gear, using the right flies, being able to cast correctly, and many
more little things that often determine whether a fly fishing adventure is
successful or not. However, one thing that many anglers frequently neglect
to learn about is the fish that they are fishing for.
A strong knowledge of the various types of trout is of critical
importance. Knowing more about the various types of trout that you are
fishing for, their habits, tendencies, and characteristics, can help
tremendously in improving your catch.
In our next article we have covered the primary types of trout, their senses,
and other important traits unique to each variety.
