Nice Trout Trout(hound)
I do not fish flies, but as I was reading I thought about an interview I heard this week with a proponent of Tenkara. His thesis was that this method, relying on simple flies and good technique instead of matching the hatch, keeps your line is in the water more, resulting in more fish. While not yet retired we are recent empty-nesters. I thus found this apparently simpler method of fly fishing intriguing as we begin to enjoy this newly found freedom.
This is the first I've heard of Tenkara. I've just googled it, anti seems like a high-tech version of the old cane pole fishing. I used to do cane pole fishing, and loved it!!!! No reels to worry about, no tangled line, less junk to lug with a tackle box that would fit in a back pocket. But for some reason Never thought about trout on a simple pole.
I may have to try the Tenkara!.
