The Fly Fishing GuideBook. A Complete Step-By-Step Training Kit Filled With The Latest And Proven Fly Fishing Techniques.

Clueless about fly fishing?
Me too!
I have been really curious about this sport for some time now. I’ve seen it done countless of times.
Tried it.
Failed.
People have endlessly and tirelessly, with their utmost patience and understanding tried to rub off some fly fishing skills on me - but to no avail.
I have resorted to reading, for now. I decided that whatever I can’t do, I might as well LEARN - even just in theory. It helps. I think of my self right now as “A work in progress”.

How To Make Fishing Lures.

Let’s all learn the basics. DEFINITION OF TERMS!
A brief definition about some terms I need to know about fly fishing.

What is Fly Fishing?

Fly fishing is an ancient and distinct angling method, developed primarily for salmonids (trout and salmon, mostly) and now extended to other species such as pike, bass, and carp, as well as a wide range of salt water species.

Long Lost Fly Fishing Secrets. Discover original tips and techniques from early fly fishing masters and classics.

Fly casting is gripping or holding a fly rod correctly and to adopt the correct stance to maintain comfort and balance. The most basic rule to casting is based on the way a clock looks. Your head points straight up to 12:00, your cast (the tip of your rod) should go back to 10:00 and then forward to 2:00, releasing your line at the end of the forward motion. It is a common mistake to dip the rod below those two positions and almost always ends in a line tangle!

Angler. (Does that have anything to do with Math? I hate Math!)

That would be YOU silly! Someday, IF you learn how to fly fish, you will be called an angler. A person catching fish or shellfish with no intent to sell, this includes people keeping the catch or people that practice the “Catch and Release” method (highly recommended).

Tip! There are different methods of crab fishing, which are quite cost effective and others that need a lot in terms of money and time. You can use a dip net to catch the crabs.

The Essentials - If you don’t have a complete list of these, you’re NOT Fly Fishing!

Fly Fishing rods are long, thin, flexible rods sometimes made of bamboo, but more recently from man-made materials. Fly rods tend to have large diameter eyes (or guides) spaced along the rod to help control the movement of relatively thick fly line. To aid in the freedom of movement required to skillfully cast with a fly rod, there is usually little to no butt (handle) extending below the fishing reel. Although fly rods are mainly used for casting from fixed positions, they can also be used for trolling for fish.

Fishing Reel is a device used for the deployment and retrieval of fishing line using a spool mounted on an axle. They are used in conjunction with the fly rod and are attached to the base or handle of the rod.

Fishing line is any cord made for fishing. Important parameters of a fishing line are its length, material, and weight (thicker, sturdier lines are more visible to fish). The refractive index is also important—lines with a refractive index similar to water are almost invisible to fish. The most important parameter in deciding what line to use is its strength. This is the amount of weight the line can hold before snapping. One must balance the trade-off between strength and visibility.

Flies as Bait? Are you kidding?
Flies or Artificial flies are constructed — “tied” onto a hook with thread, fur, feathers and other materials — in sizes and colors to match naturally occurring food or simply to excite a fish.

You will be considered a well equipped fly fisher if you bring waders, wading boots, vest net, polarized sunglasses to protect your eyes and see through the reflection on the water, a hat for the harsh sun, sun block and bug dope (bug repellant) - if you don’t want to be eaten alive by bugs before you even catch a fish!

Armed with the stuff I read, I went about to experience Fly Fishing without even going near a body of water.

How To Make Fishing Lures.

Alaska fishing has a way of exceeding your wildest fishing expectations in a most spectacular fashion. Whatever fishing passion you have, be it saltwater, freshwater, ice fishing, or fly fishing, Alaska fishing has the lakes, rivers, and streams to turn your fishing fantasies into measurable reality.

Bass Fishing Secrets. Catch more and bigger bass immediately. We Guarantee it.

More than 600 fish species populate the waters that has made an Alaska fishing expedition such a sought after experience. One of the most renowned fishing areas to explore is the Kenai river. This is where your main course of a mega-monster King Salmon is waiting for you… For dessert you are presented with a choice of silvers, red salmon, Rainbow Trout, and Dolly Varden.

Tip! Dress for the occasion. If you’re ice fishing, don’t forget thermal underwear and insulated footgear.

If the season is right, and you are up to the challenge, Silver Salmon will give you the opportunity to hone your fishing techniques, adding spice to tall fishing tales… From early August to the end of September, Silver Salmon thrills Alaska fishing fans in both the lower and upper sections of the Kenai. Guides in the area are experts in powerboating, backtrolling, casting spinners, and a variety of other techniques. Resurrection Bay is another of the popular Silver Salmon mooching and trolling areas.

Five Ways To First-Rate Alaska Fishing

Bass Fishing System.

Halibut From A Houseboat: If you prefer to do your own thing, at your own pace, a houseboat may be just what you need on your Alaska fishing expedition. A variety of options are available, such as mooring in the Prince William Sound bay. The houseboat has all the amenities you need, while you have access to coastal Salmon, Halibut, or Rockfish.

Alternatively opt for a houseboat-based Northern Pike trip on a tributary of the Yukon. The custom built boats don’t skimp on comfort and luxury, while moving with the season to ensure that you have access to impressive Northern Pikes. These Alaska fishing waters offer the perfect conditions for Pike performance, in terms of food, temperature, and water movement.

Dream Catches From A Drift Boat: The Kasilof River, home of King Salmon, Reds, and Silver Salmon, provides the background music while you are floating down river on a drift boat. No outboard motor means no noise pollution - the beauty of Alaska fishing. With wildlife abounding in the area you pass through, you will have enough to occupy your mind while you are waiting for a nibble.

Tip! Local Specialty Fly – Okay, this will take a bit of effort on your part. Every fishing area has a specialty fly that is known to have fish leaping out of the water before casting even begins.

Alaska fishing also offers guided drift boat adventures on the Upper Kenai. Catch and release Rainbow Trout and Dolly Varden, or stick with the specified quotas for Salmon. Reputable guides play by the rules, knowing that preservation ensures long term enjoyment of the splendid Alaskan wilds. With the Chugach National Forest keeping watch over the river, you will soon realize that there is no better trophy-trout fishing spot.

Comfortable Charters Are Quite A Catch: Both for day trips, and evening tours, a charter is an Alaska fishing find for families. Salmon, Black Bass, Halibut, and Rockfish can be your quarry from the comfort of a charter boat. A few hours at night, or a lengthy day stint, exhibits Alaska fishing at its best. Some outfits even offer a water-taxi to cater for your family, while you enjoy undisturbed hours of exhilarating fishing fun.

If you are a novice, there are more than enough help on board to get you hooked on fishing for life. You don’t even have to do the cleaning yourself! Additional services offered include arrangements to have your catch vacuum packed and frozen, ready for your trip home.

Tip! This might be the first time that the family is going to the lake. It will be a good idea to ask if there is a guide that will be able to direct the people to the best fishing site.

Bunk Down For Bank Fishing: Make use of the spacious cabins Alaska fishing outfits have available, with easy access to bank fishing. King Salmon, Silvers, and Rainbow Trout are all within reach, depending on the season. As discussed in an article at Fishing-Things.com, the cabins are comfortably furnished, with some even offering satellite television! Once you set eyes on the Alaskan wilderness however, the box is sure to lose much of its attraction… Apart from the Kenai and Kasilof, the Moose and Swanson will test your technique.

Fly In For Fly Fishing: Floatplanes ensure a unique introduction to the magic of Alaska fishing. Fly-outs are organized by many fishing outfits in the area, allowing you to reach remote regions that are otherwise inaccessible.

Tip! Use a wire cross-locking snap when fishing crank plugs. It allows you to change lures quickly and enables the bait to vibrate more freely.

The breathtaking Alaskan wilderness is a solitude haven, with vast, tranquil mountain lake areas, and streams that are home to Arctic Grayling, Rainbow Trout, and a number of salmon species. During August a popular destination is Cook Inlet’s west side for Dolly Varden and silvers. Most operators will provide spinning gear for use. If Kings give you a kick, the Nushagak river should be one of your stopping points.

Make sure that you are equipped for sudden cold snaps or showers, double check your camera equipment, finalize fishing gear, and head out on your Alaska fishing trip.
