Flywatersmallie Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 Hi all! Joined a couple days ago. Was online actually browsing for a boat which I'll get sooner or later, really just looking to see whats out there, prices and the like and I stumbled across this site. WOW! What a load of info and what seems like a great bunch of folks. I've been fishing river smallmouths since I was maybe 8 (30 now) here in the northwoods (WI) and have had a few good tangles with Mr Largemouth. As I get older, I see more charm in fishing those smaller ponds and lakes, fishing docks and lily pads. Im good with the fly rod, adequate with spinning tackle and just a rank beginner with casting gear. I have a casting reel on the way so I'm going to learn this stuff! Jumping in with both feet! I've learned so much in the short time here, hopefully I can add to the mix! Anyway, just wanted to say hello to everyone! Quote
Black Bass Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 Welcome to the list. I joined two years ago with the same background, 35 years fly fishing, spinning when I was with family, and no casting. In two years the bait monkey has walked me by the hand to a bass boat, 11 rods & reels, and gear bags full of baits and fishing accessories. I think this tournament style bass fishing is much more of a drain on cash resources than fly fishing, and it was expensive. Of course, I don't have to listen to the bait monkey. SURE! Quote

Newman12Fan Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 When anyone goes fly fishing with me, they always catch a ton of fish. They just stand on the other side of the lake and when I scare all of the fish away from me, they start catching them! Welcome! Quote
