Something that has perplexed me for awhile is the tendency of fly fishermen on some streams to fish as a group in close proximity to each other. I’m talking about two, three, or even four people all fishing within a rod length or two and often right at each other’s elbow. I see this most often on Spring Creek, and much less often on other streams. Quite often I’ll see one fisherman with a nonfishing partner. I’m not sure what’s up with the non fishing partner except maybe instruction. Is Spring Creek really that popular a place to learn from a partner? This all just seems foreign to me. I do 95+% of my fishing alone and when I do fish with a partner we are usually some distance apart and often out off sight of one another. Does anybody have any observations on the gregarious tendencies of fly fishermen?
