[size 3]A few thoughts from an article on the spiritual side of fly fishing:[/size]

[size 3]On the river, all of the other parts of my life disappear: all worries, all stress, all thoughts of work, of what I have to do tomorrow or the next day, they are all gone. Fly fishing is about living in the moment, being so caught up in your casting and search for trout, that everything else disappears.[/size]

Welcome to the board RabbiEE. You've just described all methods of fishing. That what keeps us going out time after time. I do enjoy all the methods to chase the mighty fin masters.

[cool][font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3]Hi there RabiEE and welcome to the BFT. I know exactly what you mean. When I live in Wa. near Redmond I would be on the river several times a week. Snow on the ground didn't bother me. So often I would get caught up in the moment watching Eagles showing me up catching their lunch. An occasional deer or other wildlife species just added to my day. What is your favorite species to fish?[/size][/green][/font]

I fish for trout and prefer the dry flies. There is nothing more satisflying than watching a trout rise to the surface. Thanks for the welcome! Rabbi E

[font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3][Tongue]Woops RabbiEE - Unfortunately your link at the bottom of your posts leads to a fishing forum. You have a nice site but the rules of the BFT states no links permitted that lead to another fish forum. You can edit your post and remove subject link. We would appreciate your cooperation. Thank you.[/size][/green][/font]

No problem with removing the link. Thanks for letting me know. Rabbi E

I prefer nymphs. I would rather go into a trout's living room and pull him off the easy chair, than make him get up and come out for dinner [Tongue]
