Vermillion sunglasses
 
Hello ROFFians,there was a post quite sometime back for a source of
prescription sunglasses that are well suited for fishing. Copper or
vermillion I lost the link/supplier and would appreciate it if someone could
supply it. TIA MM

Thank You. It will be a sorry fact of life that I will see with clarity my
quarry fleeing as the ripples of my mini-tsunami fade.MM

What stream are you fishing? What kind of water in that stream are you
fishing? What are you fishing with? When are you fishing?

I'm in Prince Edward Island, Canada.

I fish early in the morning or at sunset.
Dry flies right now.
I fish the deeper holes below a ripple and near the banks, when there are
banks.

The biggest trout I caught this summer was about 1-1/4 lb.
I seem to catch all kinds of trout too small to keep.
I'm happy with 1 -2 lb fish.

I know there are lots of big trout in the river.

The water is cold, so that if I held my hand in it for 10 minutes, it would
ache.

Well, I've seen huge trout in the holes, and catching a nice trout is worth
the effort.
Also, just being out on the river is a pleasure.

Well, dry flies don't have a reputation for being "big fish"
catchers. Even brook trout become more piscavorous when they get
larger. If you're serious about catching big fish then you should be
using larger streamers rather than dry flies unless you actually see a
big fish feeding on top. Personally though I'd prefer catching lots a
"little" fish to only hooking an occasional big fish.

Who is also happy with 1-2 lb fish.

Ahhhh, the essence of fly fishing (that one's for you, Forty).

Absolutely. A day catching lots of 8-10 inch brookies makes my week.

Drag.

That's the answer.

Big fish are smart fish. Little fish are stupid fish.

That's the reason...

I agree.

Spot your big fish first - making sure he can't spot you. Then drop the
right fly, very very delicately, and with enough slack in the leader to
ensure there's no possiblity of him seeing it drag, just in front of
him.

Simple!

(Of course it isn't. That's why I keep fishing)
