Default Catawba Worm farms could be the next big thing

Far as Fly fishing I have never had the opportunity to go fly fishing,
though would consider it.


Fishing is fishing, regardless of what you use. Fly-fishing however,
has long been considered by many to be a clean ( no bait required!)
and sporting method of angling.

very helpful information on fly fishing. I just wonder if a Trout
would bite a Catawba Worm.


Trout will take virtually anything at times. The Tebo grubs I
mentioned before, which are also moth caterpillars, are used
extensively as trout bait. I have never seen a Catalpa worm "in the
flesh". Their use, as described by Mr.Conner, which sounds authentic,
would more or less preclude my using them. I donīt want to have to
eviscerate something before I can use it as bait.

One can learn to cast fairly quickly, but it is better if there is
someone who already can shows you how. It is easy to learn a lot of
mistakes on your own. Although it is basically simple, it needs to be
done properly for optimum results.
