no self respecting fly fisherman would even bring up spin in the same sentence. Blasphemy!
Where I fish, fly's are what you swat at... When the stream is in the woods, and 5' wide, a fly rod can't be used. It's hard enough to set the hook with a 5' rod, let alone twice that..
It truly is like hunting where I fish.. You must sneak up on pools and attempt at flipping upstream, under branches or over grass without spooking them.
I can't wait for season to open, but then again, it's snowing outside right now, and my yard is still 3' deep in snow.
