I got into it, like i did archery hunting.
To challenge myself.
Started saltwater flyfishing, then freshwater.
Now, im into going after trout.
Doesnt take long to learn...
But
Breaking spin fishing habits is what kills it for some.
Started teaching a buddy this weekend.
After 30 minutes he was doing well enough imho to score if i put him in the water.
None of us picked up a rod and reel and turned into bill dance or flip pallet over night.
Dont whip it, dont over power it, wrist straight and follow through.
There is so much cheap but good gear out there these days vs when i got into it.
I built my own rods,tied my own flys all of it.
Then my daughter was born
But now im getting back to it.
Getting my 1st trout..on fly..on my rod..with my brother..in beautiful mountain streams, away from the world was the most relaxing thing ive done in years.....
6ft6 2/3wt i made and my 1st trout.
