...Just wanted to say thanks for everyone who has taken the time to mentor newbies like me. I've read the forum more than I've posted but I've really benefited from all the advice from a lot of skilled people on every subject from equipment to fly fishing techniques. I've finished my first year of fishing using only a fly rod. I've caught bluegills, crappie, perch, smallmouth and largemouth bass and even pickerel this year.
I've fly fished constantly since last January for everything I could. I held off on trout fishing until my casting got better and my knowledge of flies improved. I'm happy to say that I've caught my first trout on a fly rod. I caught 3 Rainbows on Black Friday and 7 more on Christmas Eve. Caught them on Copper Johns, Pheasant tails, and Zebra midges.
Every bit of this year that I fished with a fly rod has been the most peaceful and relaxing time of my life. To everyone who answered all those questions from beginners, or posted advice to shorten the learning curve for us all, I salute you all. I hope you all have a safe and Happy New Year and thanks for everything. I hope to make one of the PA Fly Fish Events this year.
