Right vs Left Handed Fly Fishers |
|

Please note the political correctness in the title.
About a hundred years ago, an article titled, "Read Any Good Water Lately?" appeared in a Fly Fisherman magazine, which is where I learned about riffles, runs, flats and pools but only being the second greatest fly fisherman in the world, I still have a lot to learn. After 40 years of fly fishing, one would think I would know all about this topic.
A neighbor, who does not fish, loaned me a book... [Read More]

Lee's Ferry Questions |
|
Jan 31, 2020 - 12:30 PM - by jchar85719
|
I have a friend who grew up in AZ but moved to Alaska after graduating. He met a girl who is a kick *** angler and he has become an avid fly fisherman, in addition to crabbing, etc.
Long story short, he is coming back to AZ with the girlfriend in mid to late march and wants to take her fishing. I let him know that the mountain conditions on the Rim and in the White Mountains, in mid to late march are probably going to be adverse to fishing, but that Lee's Ferry might be a... [Read More]

Lee's Ferry Questions |
|
Jan 31, 2020 - 12:19 PM - by jchar85719

I have a friend that is from AZ, buy moved to Alaska and took up fly fishing. He is coming into town late March with his girl friend to visit friends and family, and is looking to to take the girlfriend, who is a kick *** angler, fishing in AZ, if possible. I told him that that many of the places in AZ, at that time of year, probably would still be inaccessible, but that Lee's Ferry may be good bet.

Dry flies in the winter |
|
Jan 30, 2020 - 6:43 PM - by Forgetful

Do you ever use dries in the winter? Especially for small creeks.
I'm wondering if I'm wasting my time, stink at fooling fish, or just have bad luck.
I have way more luck with a nymph under an indicator compared to a dry-dropper rig. I'm assuming because I can set the depth.

Canyon Creek |
|
Jan 25, 2020 - 8:56 AM - by Bucksnort
|
Some say a good and quick way to learn quickly is to ask questions.
I'm still learning where to go and what to do in Arizona. On two occasions, I have been to Canyon Creek in the lower section but never the upper. I hear people talk about the upper section but I don't know how to access it.
Will someone help me with this? Thanks.

Mingus and Whitehorse Lakes |
|
Jan 24, 2020 - 3:58 PM - by Bucksnort

I did a little research on the internet about Whitehorse and Mingus Lakes.
Will someone provide trout fishing information on these two bodies.
On Google Earth, Mingus looks like it is either dry or very off color.
