First Fly Rod Trout




I have been trying to learn the field sport of fly fishing. Yesterday I caught my first brook trout on my new fly rod. Fly fishing is much different than fishing with spin cast The presentation of the fly must appear to the trout as normal, that in itself is a skill to learn. You must also learn to read the water and know where the trout are. Both are skills that am I just beginning to learn the basics. Caught the one pictured on a Green Wooly Buger. Hopefully many more fun days on NC mountain streams.
