Fishing Salmon

Fly fishing is a beautiful and graceful sport, and nothing can ruin the experience faster than a cloud of aggressive skeeters. Since I began fly fishing 6 years ago, the most common problem I experience is the mosquito bites. I asked all my fly fishing buddies, what works for you? How do you keep the mosquitoes at bay? Their answers ranged from 100% DEET sprays, to tying a dryer sheet to the back of your hat. I tried all of their suggestion, and now you can benefit from my experience with what works, and what does not. - DEET Products - It is the most effective mosquito repellent, but also the most dangerous to handle around your fly fishing gear. If you use it to protect yourself, be very careful...

Our modern culture has become a hotbed of stress which can be eased by a good old fashioned fishing trip. One of the best antidotes for the crazy paced lifestyle that we tend to live is a return to nature. Especially if a person lives in a city or commutes back and forth to the urban jungle from a planned suburban community, the lack of the natural world has a negative impact on health. Studies have shown that time spent in a quiet nature preserve or waterway can reduce tension, blood pressure and stress. Many of today's illnesses are directly attributed to ongoing stressful situations. Heart disease, cancer, diabetes, depression, and anxiety are all closely linked with a chronic supply of Cortisol...

As with all anglers we are spoilt for choice when it comes to fishing gear, things have moved on a lot as far as technology and range. When it comes to fishing line we have diameters, test strength and a whole host of other options such as color to think about. I recently tested Stren Blood Red, this is not the most expensive line in the world but boy does it perform well for the money. First impressions is obvious, its red!

For anyone who wants their fishing reel to perform as it should, they should set aside an hour of time, once a year, to clean and oil their spinning reels.

Living in the country has its good points and bad points, its ups and downs, its recreation and chores. Quiet, peaceful days are only punctuated by the chirps and songs of birds; nights are silent save for the occasional horse sneeze. The country is beautiful, the views breathtaking to see - but the upkeep of country property can be a challenge. The biggest challenge (and I dare anyone to find a bigger one) is springtime weeds. Not those odd offenders who sprout up amidst a well-kept lawn (we don't have a lawn); real weeds. The obstinate, aggressive, vengeful type. The kingpin of weeds is wild barley, or foxtail, where we live. You poison it, it grows back. You cut it down, three grow back in its...

As fishermen sometimes we forget the importance of our spinning rods to our success or failure as an angler. That's right, your rod makes a big difference in your success or failure as an angler. For example, if your rod is too stiff, you'll have trouble feeling bites. On the other hand, if your rod it so limp (or whippy, as I like to call it) you'll be able to feel bites, but won't be able to set the hook. Another example is if your rod is too short, and you're fishing in heavy current, you won't be able to feel anything. In this article I'm going to give you some basic rules of thumb when it comes to your spinning rods. These spinning rod tips are simple and easy to understand. Begin...

It will only take a few moments and won't cost you very much, either! For those who have just recently converted to fly fishing from other angling methods, it will likely be no surprise that hooks should be inspected and sharpened as needed, but it might seem strange to think about cleaning lines.
