Now you've gone and done it Snake, you are lost in the world of flyfishing,
never to return to ordinary pursuits such as dirt track racing, skydiving,
cliff climbing and other humdrum stuff. :-) Such therapy you're gonna get
you won't believe (not that you need any) I will add one other technique to
those already suggested...if they're not hitting one of Big Dale's spiders
(for instance) tie a little wet fly or beadhead fly on an 18" tippet then
tie that to the spider hook (there should be a spool or two of
tippet/leader material in the vest) Cast it out and move it around a
little....watch the bobb..er...spider for any movement. Sometimes those
little beadhead bugs can save the day, and you're not *really* bobber
fishing. :-)) I tell myself that every time I do it.

flyfishing,

true that- each evening i think about my schedule for the next day, and
wonder where i might be able to fit in some fishing, and whether my
schoolwork that day is something i can take along with me ....
right now i am p.o.'d becasue i have very little schoolwork to do, and i
could be out fishing except for the regular afternoon thunderstorm with
which we are blesses here in boone, north carolina! oh yeah, and the fact
that i need to wash dishes , and go to the grocery store, and.............
oh well, that stuff can wait. uh oh, i think i'm in trouble ;-)

don't be so sure.......

yep, found it

Cast it out and move it around a
little....watch the bobb..er...spider for any movement.


sounds like fun

would that be bobber or *indicator*? SEG
