Become a real fly fisher – that sounds a bit noble, but it’s a worthy goal. You can read about fly fishing. Watch videos. And listen to podcasts (ours, hopefully!).
To become even moderately competent, though, you need to “do” fly fishing.
There are no shortcuts. You need many days on the river when you don’t catch a thing. In this episode, we identify five big buckets or categories that you need to master (or at least become moderately proficient at) to catch fish and enjoy the sport. It’s something everyone can learn. It’s just not something you can learn in anticipation of a trip to the American West or for a vacation.
