I grew up fishing with worms, salmon eggs, and then spinners. No one else I knew used anything else. While I was in college I got started on fly fishing. At first I did both depending on conditions, now I only fly fish.
I feel more involved in the whole experience, and it is a more active than sitting and waiting for them to come to me. To me it is so much more fun and challenging, especially top water. I don't care if it is a six inch brookie on a small stream or a 3 lb bass(I'm not too good at bass yet[blush]) in the lily pads, when they attack my fly it is AWESOME!
