I like to fly fish as well Bill. I pretty much stick to trout and Atlantic salmon. I have been known to catch the odd small mouth though by mistake. I have tied my own flies for years. Unfortunately I tore my shoulder up pretty good a few years ago and I can only stand casting for a couple of hours before the pain gets to bad. There is nothing like seeing a fish swirl and plunking your fly down on top of him and having him explode on it. Here's a pic of a 36 inch spring Atlantic from a couple of years ago. The biggest I have got was 48 inch's. That sure was fun.
