Florida Fly Fishing
I have spent a few Christmas Holiday in the Emerald Coast region of Florida. Everytime I have concentrated my fly fishing efforts on the salt. This time around I focused on the fresh water. After Figuring out they wanted small stuff like tiny nymphs and streamers, I did quite well. The amazing irony is that the best fishing was a pond behind the Bass Pro Shop.
The following are pictures from December 27th 2016 to January 1st 2017
Splake and Perch Fly Fishing Manitoba
What used to be a fun Brook trout lake has turned into a crappy splake and perch lake. The idea is that splake can grow bigger but that doesn’t happen in the eastern shield lakes. So we get stuck with limp washed out fish on a pretty lake instead of pretty fish on a pretty lake.
Tiger Trout Still Water Fly Fishing Manitoba
There are a of of stocked trout waters in this province. It sort of makes up for the lack of rivers, sort of.
The Tradition Continues
As stated in an earlier post, I like to hit the Whiteshell River the last Sunday of October. This year I hit the jackpot as it was very late in the month. To make it more special I used my Tenkara.
New Pike Lake for me to Fly Fish
Checked out a new to me lake. I am always looking for a small lake with now power boat nonsense to fly fish for pike. Because of the lake and not because of fishing I will return in spring.
Anton’s Lake Manitoba Parkland’s Still Water Trout
Sure the lakes can be considered spring and fall fisheries. Sure you can call them glorified aquariums with the aerators and all but damn the finishing can be fun when it is hot!
