Go Fly Fish, Whatever Season It May Be
January 14, 2008 |
What is the best day for you to go fly fishing? In my case, it actually depends on the current season I am in. During the hot summer days when a wide brimmed fishing cap is a must, I usually fish for some trophy catch in the early morning. 5 am is the ideal time for me, as the sun hardly peeked out yet. The surroundings are still cool, which makes it conducive for a great fly fishing start. But as soon as the sun goes out, weather gets humid and the discomfort takes me away from my concentration to the angling game.
During winter, the latter that I get out of the shore for my angling session, the better. Especially if the temperature starts to drop below 10 degrees, the cold air numbs my face and fingers and this certainly greatly affects my fly fishing. That’s why fishing gears are such an important component of the game. Fishing jackets, caps, gloves and wading pants are not to be forgotten whenever one goes out to fish.
Whatever type of season, weather and day it may be when you fish, it is helpful if you know where and what part of the water you fish. Surely you are already familiar with the river or pond around your area, and you know where the schools of fish stay on a particular time of day. Being a long time fisher of a particular body of water is an advantage for those who want to have a great catch and prolific fishing session as he already knows his way around the waters.
