239: The Intrigue of Fly Fishing a Familiar River

The intrigue of fly fishing a new creek or river for the first time is exciting. But there’s also the intrigue of fly fishing a familiar place, a stretch that you’ve fished for years.

In this episode, we recount a recent fly fishing trip to a spring creek that we’ve fished many, many times. There’s an intrigue of fly fishing familiar runs. There’s a comfort in knowing which runs are often most productive, but there’s also new sights and sounds, changes to the shape and flow of the river, and run-ins with wildlife and even other fly fishers. Every day on a familiar river is a new experience. The blend of familiarity with the new makes for a great day of fishing. The bonus is that likelihood of catching fish.
