Speaking of the Slough, at our next month’s meeting on November 6, a few of our club members will be talking about fishing at the Slough. If you know anyone who is new to fly fishing or who may be interested in learning about fly fishing, this will be a great meeting to bring them along. The Slough is a great place to learn to fly fish. Also, if you’d just like to and tie flies, the classroom is always open. At next month’s meeting, we will also be holding elections for next year’s board. If you haven’t been on the board yet and you are reading this, it’s your turn. Come out and vote, and think about taking an open position. I’ve found it to be an enjoya- ble experience and I think you will too. I look forward to seeing you all at Slough Creek. Catch ya later.

All of the sud- den, another group with the Nature Center came out to the area we were fishing. The group that came down had bags of fish pellets, and began feeding the carp, sending the fish into a frenzy. So, we decided to stay and we hooked up a few more times. We may have crossed the line here, but it was enjoya- ble, and the kids had a great time. We finished the day with a few pizza pies. Thanks Jerry! Thanks to the volunteers and the participants! Then, the volunteers and participants headed outside where Rick demonstrated proper casting techniques. His patient and tender instruction was well received.

Flatland Fly Fishers 4 The Woolly Bugger Rick Brown EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED TO KNOW OR NOT KNOW ABOUT THE WOOLLY BUGGER John Gierach discussed the Woolly Bugger first in his chap- ter on streamers in his book “The Good Flies”. In the book Let us go back in time to when I first started tying flies. I “The Professionals’ Favorite Flies” Bill Hunter said, “The had no idea of what I was doing back then and some would say Woolly Bugger is so effective, it should be banned from some that I still don’t know what I am doing when it comes to tying watersheds. I suspect its effectiveness is due to its resemblance flies. At a club meeting a number of years ago, we had a tying to so many edible creatures in the water—nymphs, leeches, night.

  • Making Artificial Lures
    WILDLIFE SW 439 August 2001 PROJECT Making Artificial Lures INTRODUCTION If you like to fish, chances are that you use worms, minnows, grasshoppers, frogs and other natural bait. Almost any tackle store you visit will have both natural or “live bait” and artificial lures which are made to imitate the real thing. Artificial lures were used by many early civilizations and have been around literally thousands of years. Early lures were made of a variety of materials. For example, American Indians and Eskimos made lures out of the bones of certain birds and animals which resembled minnows. Books were written as early as the 15th Century describing the art of fly fishing and fly tying. Even then, feathers, hair and thread helped early anglers to fool trout, salmon and bass. Today, there are many types of artificial lures from which to choose — such as plastic worms, balsa wood minnows, metal spinners, spoons, lead jigs, swimming plugs, surface plugs and even battery-pow- ered frogs. Such lures are used with spinning spin/ casting and casting equipment (rod and reel) by fish- ermen in both fresh and salt water. Some lures are inexpensive, but others may cost more than your weekly allowance. Fly fishermen also have a very large number of insect, frog and minnow imitations from which to select, many of which are made from animal hairs, feathers, yarn, cork and thread. Flies must be very lightweight, because it is the fly line (unlike spin and plug fishing) which carries the lure through the air. There are, in fact, several thousand recognized trout and salmon patterns, and hundreds of bass patterns.

  • The Eight Classic Nymphs and How to Fish Them
    Orvis Early Season Weighted Nymph Selection The Eight Classic Nymphs and How to Fish Them Manchester, Vermont 05254 Makers of Fine Fishing Tackle Since 1856 This article was recreated by Bob Hazlett from a very old black and white pamphlet by Orvis found at the bottom of a box of fly-tying material. The text is original; the photos are modern color renditions of those in the original. Page 1 of 7 The Eight Classic Nymphs and How to Fish Them All trout waters, including streams, lakes and ponds contain thousands of different insects upon which trout feed. The immature forms of these insects are called nymphs. Dwelling on the bottom, they can be found year-round and are a major factor in the trout's diet. The flies in this selection were designed to imitate the nymphal forms of the insect orders most important to the trout fisherman. These include the mayflies, the stoneflies and the caddisflies. Weighted nymphs can provide an effective approach when conditions are uncertain or if trout are not feeding on the surface. At streamside, we are always alert for some clue to fly selection. But as so often happens throughout the season, we arrive on the stream and there are no flies hatching. In need of a starting point, many experienced hands begin to systematically probe the waters with weighted nymphs. Which nymph to try first? One that is suggestive in size and color of the naturals in the particular water one is fishing. Naturals can be dislodged from stream bed rocks or submerged logs and examined closely.

  • Leader's Line April 2020 Fly Casting
    The Leader April 2020 The Newsletter of The Granite Bay Flycasters April 2020 http://gbflycasters.org Leader’s Line by TinaLyn Sell, GBF President I am going to keep this short and sweet this month. I have one board position to fill before the end of June. Eric Palmer, VP Membership, has been doing an amazing job the past several years, and has done his time. He has earned a break. If you have experience with Excel and would like to step up and help out the club, please email me or Eric to discuss this position and all the fun that comes with it. Just in case you have not heard, in light of the current health situation, GBF has followed the State mandate and canceled all club events until April 15th. This does not mean you cannot reduce your stress, anger, and fear, while increasing pleasant feelings and overall well being. How can I do that, you ask? With good ole’ nature and a fishout. There are three, yes 3, in the month of April alone. See, things are already looking brighter. Now, get out there and enjoy what GBF and Mother Nature have to offer. Fly Casting Clinics Scheduled for April, 2020 by John Hogg This is to announce GBF’s annual flycasting clinics. These clinics are appropriate for all skill levels of casters. If you are a novice, we will get you going; and if you are experienced, we will make you better. The clinics are conducted over two consecutive Saturdays—each day will offer new material.

    STREAMLINES Vol. 29, No. 2 February 2020 potomacvalleyflyfishers.club ______________________________________________________________________________ Upper Gunpowder Falls Brook Trout Monthly Meeting — February 11th By Larry Forte over 25 percent of the state’s brook trout population. Unfortunately, their numbers and their pristine habitat have been declining for years. The Upper Gunpowder Falls Brook Trout Partnership is a coalition of volunteers, community organizers, and government agencies. Their mission is to improve water quality and stream habitat and to restore brook trout populations in the Upper Gunpowder Falls watershed. The partnership includes Trout Unlimited, the MD DNR, Baltimore & Carroll Counties and the Eastern Brook Trout Joint Venture. I am looking forward to Scott’s presentation. Hope that you can join us on the 11th! The Gunpowder is one of my favorite streams to fish. It’s a beautiful stream and the fishing, while challenging, is a lot of fun. While I have caught only brown trout, I have never caught brook trout in the upper Gunpowder. In fact, I didn’t realize that there were brook trout in the stream. At our next meeting, on Tuesday, February 11th, we welcome Scott Scarfone. He is with the Upper Gunpowder Falls Brook Trout Partnership and he will talk to us about their efforts to restore brook trout populations in the Gunpowder watershed. Brook trout are Maryland’s only native freshwater trout species. Also, the Gunpowder basin supports 1 Beginner’s Fly Tying By Don Fine On February 17, we will launch our new Beginner’s Fly Tying program.
