Is it still fly fishing if you use live bait?
"Bob La Londe" wrote in message SNIP LOL. Well, I can honestly say I have never put a bobber on my fly line. So there! LOL. Although I have used a 9'+ fly rod with a spinning reel to serve up minnows to baulky bass, and I didn't use a bobber. LOL. Well, I have to say that I agree with Ken on this one. Fly fishing is using a fly, constructed of hair, feathers, maybe some foam rubber and thread, delivered by the line casting the lightweight "lure". With fly fishing, you're trying to fool a gamefish with an imitation. Using live bait, regardless of what rod/reel combination, is livebait fishing. Sure, it's fun and still a challenge, but it's not fly-fishing! -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com
