Salmon Fly Fishing

Salmon Fly Fishing Strategies and Tips

Salmon will not be feeding when they are in a river but they will strike anyway as this is their nature. But watch out when they are in a lake as they will be very aggressive and predatory. This behavior can be challenging to fishermen but exciting also.

Choose carefully the time of day you are fly fishing for salmon. Bright, sunny days will cause them to hide in deep holes and make them more difficult to catch. On low light or cloudy days they will be much easier to catch as this is their preferred weather.

A smart fisherman will make a water temperature chart to follow patterns of the salmon. This can take several years to make accurate but once you have it you will be ahead of the game. Get a thermometer to check the temperatures at different times of the day. Always put the thermometer in the same depth and place each time. Start keeping a notebook with you so you can record the temperatures and update it as often as possible. Eventually you will know the best times to fish in your favorite spots.

Salmon like the cooler water best and as the water heats up they will go deeper. They need oxygen and cooler water will have more. Being in their ideal water temperature will cause them to fight harder but they will be easier to find. So choose your water temperature wisely to hit just the right note between too hot and too cool.

Knowing when and where to fly fish for salmon can be tricky because the salmon will be swimming up and down following the pattern of day brightness and water temperature. So being patient is a big requirement of a successful fisherman. Sometimes the weather will be windy and you will have to cast far out because you will be casting into the wind. When the weather conditions change you have to change with them if you want to catch your salmon.

When you are fishing the deep holes your line can easily get snagged on debris, rocks, and foliage. You will probably end up losing a lot of flies so make sure you have plenty, but it will be worth it when you take that big catch home.

For adventure, excitement, and sometimes the fight of your life, try salmon fly fishing for the satisfaction of testing your skills against fish and nature.

Fly Fishing Equipment Guide - Learn More About The Items You Use

If you have heard of fly-fishing and you do not know what it is, it is a style angling that has a history tracing back to the ancient times. Fly fishing has a big difference from the fishing style we are used today which uses a reel and a rod, the fly-fisherman goes into the water and lures the fish to bite using his expert skills. The main difference of fly-fishing from the fishing style we are used to is the bait and method being used by the angler and also the fly fishing equipment.

Although fly fishing equipment has a reel and a rod it works differently from the usual open spool reels. Fly rods are made up of fiber glass or other complex materials and are flexible and light. Before catching a fish or purchasing your fly fishing equipment you must know the type of the fish you are going to catch because fly rods have different lengths. Usually a fly angler catches a salmon or a trout but it can also be an effective way of catching other types of fish.

Another distinctive feature that a fly rod has is the kind of fishing line which is usually thicker comparing it to any other kind of angling line.

Fly rod is not just an important fly fishing equipment but the weight, type and color of the artificial fly is also a part of the art of angling for a fly fisherman. There are various categories of flies they are partially submerged flies, surface floating flies and below surface flies each has its own particular way of casting.

Fly fishing equipment usually can be costly but not all the parts are expensive the most expensive part is the flying rod, flies and flying line are not. For people who are experienced in fly fishing they can eventually make their own flies to use. When you make your own fly you can customize it and most of all you can save a lot of money. If you want to experience how it feels to do fly fishing the best method to do it is with the help of an expert and he can also give you complete details regarding fly fishing equipment.

If you are the kind of person that loves adventure, likes doing things differently fly fishing is one great activity to be involved in. Somehow fly fishing is an "antique technique" that has been handed down from generation to generation. Fly fishing is a leisure that can last forever with the correct knowledge and equipment.

Fly Fishing Outfits

what would be the best type of starter outfit for a novice getting into fly fishing.?

which would be the best line rating to go for rod wise and what lenth and how many sections should the rod be,
for someone wanting to start out mainly resevour fishing but maybe a little river fishing thrown in for good measure.

Thats a tough question.

If you havn't even "touched" a fly/rod/reel in your life, and don't even know if your gonna like it, I would probably buy a "Pflueger/Medalist-series Reel 1594 1/2 RC"; they cost approx. $32.

Matched with a "Redington Rod" model CRF 907/8, 2 piece, 9 FT OR "St. Croix, Premier Rod" model P908.2 , 2 piece , 9FT. Both these rods will cost about $100.

Matched with any #7 "weight-forward" line in green/clear color ; and 15-20 Lb backing.

This is a good starter combo, for a person who is a novice, and doesn't want to spend $1000 + on a rod & reel!

If you KNOW you are addicted to flyfishing and want to upgrade to something more "savy" try "SAGE", "SCOTT", "G-LOOMIS" rods & "SAGE", "LAMSON", "ABEL", "ROSS" , reels.

Remember that your rod is really more important than your reel in fly-fishing. I've seen guys with $500-900 SAGE rods attached to a Pflueger reel from 1975,( it also depends on the type of fish you will be engaging).

Fly-fishing is a wonderful sport that has only recently become an "elite" sport because of the price of the equipment. I started fly-fishing on an old St. Croix rod, 15 years ago, and it STILL catches fish. Don't let the price tag "fool" you on some of those more expensive rods & reels. Unless ,you plan to become a professional fisherman , & fly-fish 200 days a year, you could not feel the difference between a "SAGE" & a "REDINGTON" rod anyway!

Best start out inexpensive and go from there!

Besides, you'll need extra money to buy "flies" & "stuff". Thats REALLY where it starts getting expensive! Lose 4 flys at $5 a piece , and you start getting mighty "concerned" where that fly lands! (LOL)

Start easy: go to a local pond, (that has plenty of "back-cast" room), and try to catch some bluegill or small bass. It's fun, you'll learn the "basic's" , & it's cheaper on the wallet!

Float and Fly fishing for trout.?

While soaking my dough bait at a local lake in my area, I say this guy fly fishing the same lake. The only thing though was, he was catching these 2 and 3 bounders and I wasn't. I don't own a fly fishing outfit but I do have light rod ( 7'6", 8'6"and 9'6") . I'm wondering if anyone has used a spinning rod setup this way and what flys work for you? I live in San Bernadino area and the trout are planted, when they get around to it this year I hope.

Its totally possible, to fish a fly with a small bobber, but you wont catch as many fish as actually fly fishing, as your fly isnt very well presented, you may want to consider learning to fly fish, with a real fly rod and reel.

Fly Fishing Lanyards – Advantages of Using Fishing Lanyards

Before actually using a fishing lanyard you should know what it is, how it works and what tools does it needs. Once you know all that, you will understand why you should use it and when.

If fishing lanyards is a strange concept to you, here’s the explication: a fishing lanyard is a very useful accessory that will keep the most used fishing tools within reach.

A lanyard is used very often at conferences and trade shows in order to tag the contestants or the members of staff. Their role is very important and their used increased considerably thanks to the cushioned neck designs and the retracting clips.

You can choose a fishing lanyard according to your style because there’s a match for everyone’s taste. You can find man-made models, leather models and so on and so forth.

Thanks to a cosy band of rubber on the top half of the lanyard you can wear it around your neck every day of the year. Some of them integrate a release clasp that’s standard for all models.

Wearing a fishing vest can be quite difficult sometimes because of the heat and that’s why wearing a jacket under it is not always a good decision. Wearing a fishing lanyard is very comfortable not to mention that you’ll always have your key items close. It’s the perfect replacement for a fishing tackle box.

Don’t worry about snags or unwanted movements because the lanyard has at its bottom a bulldog clip that will attach to waders or to your shirt. Usually any regular swivel has snap lock connectors allowing you to attach your tools.

You can do that directly or you can use a retractor clip. This latter is available in various test strength versions that will extend up to 24 inches.

If you plan to outfit a lanyard, you should pay attention to some details that will attach very easily and won’t interfere with your work. For example: a safety whistle, a knot tying tool, a carabineer with sunscreen, a water thermometer, tools for cutting or holding line (hemostats, forceps, clipper), a pouch, leader gauges and at least two retractor clips just in case you need to attach more tools.

The most important characteristic of a lanyard is that it will help you carry as many supplies as necessary while wandering river, streams or sailing in your boat.

This nametag holder is actually a very useful accessory and there’s no doubt about that.

Canadian Fly Fishing

Fly Fishing Canadian Style

Canada is a beautiful country with so many places where you can practice the "art" of fly fishing with some very satisfying results.  Fly fishing in Canada can not only give you the experience of catching a diverse variety of fish, but it also gives you the beauty and scenery that can ease your stresses and make for a very satisfying fishing experience.

The northern reaches of Canada have exceptional fishing for pike, salmon, and legendary brook trout.  With the exception of Lake Michigan, all the Great Lakes have a Canadian shore. Southwestern Ontario is surrounded by Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, Lake Huron, and Georgian Bay.

Rivers like the Saugeen, Maitland, Grand, Credit, and Nottawasaga would be famous if they flowed through U.S. soil, but they are relatively obscure because they are in an area not noted for its fly-fishing heritage. Local anglers are more apt to go north to chase walleye, pike, and bass in lakes despite the quality river fishing on their doorsteps.

There are intimate trout streams in this area of Canada with wild fish and top-notch tail waters with big, educated brown trout. Ontario's smallmouth rivers equal any river bass fishery in the world, and there are dozens of rivers with steelhead and salmon runs that rival those in the United States.

An added incentive to fish this area is that you don't have to travel far into the wilderness. Accommodations, restaurants, guides, tackle shops, and other entertainment options are abundant. Canadian currency is also weaker than the U.S., so your dollars stretch farther north of the border.

The Grand and the Conestogo rivers are two tail water fisheries in southern Ontario that offer excellent access to good populations of feisty brown trout. The Grand is designated a Canadian Heritage River and has seen an unbelievable transformation over the last 20 years.

Water quality improvements, top-notch management, beautiful scenery, and a solid stocking program have made it one of the top destinations for brown trout in the East. But be advised, its one thing to find a big fish feeding but quite another to consistently fool these old browns.

The management philosophy of the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources is to work toward strong wild fisheries. Therefore, a majority of the steelhead in Ontario is wild fish, and you will have your hands full trying to subdue them. Depending on water conditions, strong runs of fish are common throughout the fall in just about any Great Lakes tributary in southern Ontario.

You can find some amazing fly fishing in Canada when you take the time to look for it.  Not only will you be met with some beautiful scenery, but you will be landing some great fish.  Fly fishing in Canada is well worth the travel.  Fish Canada and keep coming back for the best fly fishing experience of your life!

Fly Fishing Vests

Tips for Buying Fly Fishing Vests

Fly fishing vests are very important pieces of equipment.  They're responsible for holding all of the tools and accessories you need such as weights, flies, and tippets.  There are a few things you need to consider when buying one.  This article will give you a few tips to ensure you choose the right one.

Material

One of the first decisions you'll need to make when choosing a vest is the type of material it's made from.  Two of the most common options are fabric and mesh.  Either material is fine, so this is basically just a personal choice.  However, a mesh vest will be much cooler during the summer.  It can also stretch more than a fabric vest can.

Size

Size is also an important factor when buying fly fishing vests.  It's best to buy a size larger than you'd wear normally.  Unless you'll be wearing the vest by itself, you'll have it on over your other clothes.  So, you need to make sure it's large enough to fit comfortably.  This is especially important during colder weather as you'll be wearing more clothes to stay warm.

Speaking of size, you should also consider the length of the vest.  It's usually best to get one that has a relatively short waist.  This will help keep the items in the vest dry as you'll probably be wading in the water a lot.

Pockets

It's also important that you choose a design that provides enough pockets.  As mentioned earlier, the main function of the vest is to hold all of your accessories and tools.  Therefore, make sure you have enough pockets to hold them.  Some of the pockets should have Velcro or a zipper to ensure that you don't lose important items.

Fly Fishing History

History Of Fly Fishing

Fly fishing has been around in various forms for many years. Early historical records indicate that Macedonian fishermen were using artificial flies to catch fish as early as the second century. The Roman Claudius Aelianus described the Macedonian anglers as using six-foot rods with six-foot line. Aelianus detailed how the Macedonian fishermen would craft artificial flies from a hook with red wool and insect wings tied on. These Macedonian fishermen were apparently quite successful with their technique. There is also some evidence that fishing with artificial flies may even predate the second-century Macedonian techniques.

Unfortunately, little else was written about ancient fly fishing methods. It was 1496 before any major work was published describing fly fishing.

It is thought that modern fly fishing probably developed in England and Scotland. This techniques similar to modern techniques began to be developed in England in the 19th century. Around this time fly fishing clubs were also formed in England to accommodate a growing interest in the sport. Part of the interest in this fishing in southern England was because of the prevalence of shallow, weedy rivers. It proved to be well-adapted to this type of water course.

It quickly became something of an elitist sport in England. It purists insisted on fishing with dry flies only and looked down on wet fishing as being inferior. Wet fishing continued to be developed around the same time, however. The US and Scandinavia also saw fly fishing popularity increase during the 19th century. However, anglers in the US and Scandinavia did not share the English view concerning the superiority of dry fishing. US and Scandinavian anglers fished both dry and wet flies.

This materials have continued to develop over the years. Significant advances have been made in this equipment, including rods, line and flies.

Early fly fishing rods were made from a tropical wood known as greenheart. Bamboo replaced greenheart as fly fishing popularity spread. Bamboo rods were further refined as American rod builders developed advanced rod building techniques that involved cutting the bamboo into strips before gluing the bamboo back together around a solid core. Following World War II fiberglass became a popular material for fly rod construction. The fiberglass rods were more affordable than their bamboo predecessors since bamboo rods may take as much as 100 hours to build. Modern rods are usually made from a graphite compound. Modern rods are less expensive than earlier rods and perform exceptionally well.

Artificial flies were originally made from natural materials like feathers and fur. Most modern flies are made from synthetic materials.

Fly line has also been improved quite a bit. Fly line used to be made of horse hair. Horse hair line was replaced by silk line. The silk line was an improvement over horse hair but the line still had to be removed from the reel periodically to allow it to dry.

US interest in fly fishing peaked in the 1920s with Maine, Vermont and Wisconsin being the most popular areas for fishing. Interest increased again in the 1950s with the development of affordable, fiberglass fishing rods, synthetic fly line and monofilament leaders. These developments served to make it a more affordable sport for many people.
