The miles of river around you might seem endless, like you could fish for the rest of your life and never see it all. But given a couple decades of hard fishing, you may start to feel quite the opposite. The twisting rivers and rambling streams become your home. And each one within the perimeter of a reasonable driving distance is mentally marked as either explored and fishy or explored and fishless. Until eventually, the list of the unexplored disappears.

And to sustain a sense of adventure, your urge to reconsider the marginal water overtakes your parallel urge to go for the sure thing. Hunting for places beyond the obvious spots on the map becomes part of what you do, not only on fishing trips, but on your days off too.

Streamside | DIY Shake Fly Floatant via Living Fly Legacy

A few years ago I took a chance and bought thirty-two ounces of powdered, fumed silica from an ebay seller. "What the hell is that?" You might ask. It's the fine, white powder used for drying flies and keeping them riding high on the surface. The ebay listing came...

Troutbitten Fly Box — The Harvey Pusher Night Fly (with VIDEO)

** NOTE** Video for the Harvey Pusher  appears below. What I know of the Harvey Pusher Night Fly comes from a few good sources. Steve Sywensky owned Fly Fisher’s Paradise, the legendary fly shop of central Pennsylvania. Twenty years ago he was the only fisherman I...

The Tracer Streamer Concept

Sometimes, two is better than one. Fishing a second streamer is nothing new, but it’s a habit I picked up early. When I had no experience upon which to base my own decision, I did what I was told. I did what I read in the magazines and in the few books I had. As a...

When Drifting Low Isn’t Low Enough

Always, the river gives us something to fight against. Muddy water, strong winds or high sun — there are endless elements to overcome. Low water, hot weather or cold conditions — they all change the game with unique obstacles. Rarely are conditions perfect. And if...
