Tips and Talk - Killat

As I look out my window at a few feet of snow on the ground it is hard to believe that Spring is coming But it is less than 3 weeks away So get the fly reel out clean it and a small amount of oil on the shaft would be good

As far as fly lines yes there are fly line cleaners on the market but a dilute solution of Dawn on a rag works as well Look for cracks esp in the first 30 feet or so They would indicate time for a new line

Go through the fly boxes and get things organized If you dont have time to sit down at the tying bench I suggest going to your local shop

Maybe March will bring some sunny afternoons and fishable water arly spring afternoons are a good time for brown stone flies Try uncing them near the shore or long drifts through likely water

Tips and Talk - Killat

As I look out my window at a few feet of snow on the ground it is hard to believe that Spring is coming But it is less than 3 weeks away So get the fly reel out clean it and a small amount of oil on the shaft would be good

As far as fly lines yes there are fly line cleaners on the market but a dilute solution of Dawn on a rag works as well Look for cracks esp in the first 30 feet or so They would indicate time for a new line

Go through the fly boxes and get things organized If you dont have time to sit down at the tying bench I suggest going to your local shop

Maybe March will bring some sunny afternoons and fishable water arly spring afternoons are a good time for brown stone flies Try uncing them near the shore or long drifts through likely water
