Join Me on My Fly Fishing Journey on MikenRickOutdoors. This journey will take us through a lot of instructions, awesome catches and gorgeous scenery.
Why I Am Starting to Fly Fish
I have not fished a lot in my life, but lately I have been bait fishing and spin casting with Mike, and honestly, I’m tired of waiting for the tip of the line to move, especially when the lake has choppy water from high winds. It’s almost impossible to know if a fish is nibbling on the line.
I love the idea of getting out on beautiful lakes or rivers and being more active with fishing, and deciding what fly to use, based on what’s going on in nature. This seems like a much more interesting sport to me.
Fly Fishing Combo Kits
I’m starting out on this fly fishing journey and I don’t want to spend a lot of money…yet, until I know I enjoy the sport, so I decided to go with a fly fishing combo kit.
There are a lot of kits out there and I’m going to list a few here so you can do your own research if you’re interested in fly fishing and following me as I learn the sport.
