Paddle To the People

If you are not in the alternative mode of propulsion crowd, like the Hobies or Ocean Kayak Torques, to make your kayak move you are going to need a paddle. Though it seems like a very simple item there is a huge disparity between a cheap and a high end paddle. These differences can mean paddling all day in comfort or feeling like you are swinging a log and wearing yourself out. We're going to

  • Flytying - Floating Menace

    When trout are repeatedly rising for flies, My "Floating Menace" is the pattern to try.

  • Fly tying - Fluttering Mayfly

    This is the "fluttering" type of Mayfly. It is tied just contrary to a conventional fly; that is, the head of the fly starts at the rear of the hook instead of at the front of the hook. Tying a fly in this manner gives it a fluttering erratic action when slowly retrieved through the water. ... FISH-ON!
