RodFlyFishing2.com: White River
 White River  Part 3 7. It starts deep in the lower Peninsula of Michigan as a small, spring-fed brook trout stream. A few browns do make their way into this section, and they can grow surprisingly large. From the M-72 Bridge downstream to the CCC Bridge, the river is fly- fishing only. This is famous trout water, and the hatches, as well as the fish are plentiful. The fishing remains good for a few miles downstream from the special regulation stretch (mostly for browns), before the river forms Tippy Pond. While smallmouth bass and pike are the main species during the summer, migratory trout, salmon, and steelhead form the cool-weather fishery. As a matter of fact, a brown trout caught in the lower Manistee last fall is the current world record. 8. Coursing through the beautiful Appalachian country of Northern New England, the scenery will not be beat. This portion of the river is full of eager brook trout, and in the spring and fall, Atlantic Salmon run upst

White River

Article 2 White River. I will doubtless leave out some rivers that are worthy of mention. I'm sure these aren't actually the ten very best streams around-there are dozens of backcountry Alaskan streams and private trout waters that are probably better than any of these. These are all well known streams, and they'll be crowded from time to time. It's no coincidence that Montana is well represented in the list; it is full of long, beautiful trout rivers. Gallatin River (Yellowstone National Park and Montana) This will come as a bit of a surprise that I'm listing this as #1. Most folks spend most of their trip on the really "classy" trout streams, like the Madison, Yellowstone, Firehole, or the Paradise valley spring creeks. The beautiful mountain meadow water in Yellowstone National Park, and for a few miles below holds several hundred small rainbows and cut throat in it's plentiful riffles. Access is easy and plentiful. It's no

White River

White River.  Article  1   This blue ribbon trout fishery is located in the heart of Arkansas in the Ozark Mountain Range. Many a keen fishermen will have tried their luck here. In addition to the efforts driven by the local conservation, the water from the White River runs clean and cold from its source in the Boston Mountains of the Ozarks.   The tail water effect provides stable cold water temperatures and excellent trout habitat.   It's not enough to just throw some bait on a hook and cast.   If you want to increase your odds of coming home with a cooler of fresh trout to clean, or at least have a great fishing day with some successful catch and release action, you need to employ some tried and true trout fishing strategy when fishing here.   In my many years of fishing, I'd be hard-pressed to find a more friendly, easy-going and informative group of people.   But the people of Arkansas and the outfitters of this river are friendly, open and ready to answer

Arkansas trout fishing

  I was raised on Arkansas trout fishing, and my son has been raised on it as well.   You see, things move a little bit slower down there.   Yes friends, we have electricity, plumbing, high-tech industry, and some of the greatest cities in the world.   We still continue to take pleasure in nature, even as we enjoy the modern conveniences of life.   I was with my uncle, who I thought was a nut.   He taught me all the tricks that you need to know for Arkansas trout fishing.   By the time I was done with a trip, I thought of myself as an expert fisherman.   It seems that he just did not have enough time anymore, but when I began to ask him to take me on a trip, he gladly agreed.   You see, my dad was not really the talkative type, and it was hard for him to be alone with nothing to do but sit there and fish for so long.   It took a while to get into a natural rhythm, but when we did, it was smooth sailing from there.   You see, the streams are different at different time

Trout in Bare Nature

Once in America, trout fishing had its great time. It was the most favourable outdoor hobby in times when people seek for a challenging and fruitful recreation in bare nature. Challenging, since the fish to catch is the best target but hard to caught fish in the world. Fruitful, imagining the tasty trout dish served for dinner. Let's go further into this wonderful fish. Trout fish in bare nature Their typical place to find them is in cool, clear water streams and lakes throughout the Northern part of America, as well as in Asia and Europe. Although most of the trout can only be found in fresh water, but many species of the trout are known as seasonal travellers where they spent their adult life in the sea and return to streams of freshwater when time comes for them to breed. This is known as anadromous reproduction which is a seasonal habit in the species of brook trout, cutthroat trout, brown trout, bull trout, arctic char and salmon. These species are known to travel t

Spinning Rods

Plus, with a little practice, they're as accurate as a sniper rifle.   They take a bit of practice to master, and most fishermen plonk down the money for these rods only to get frustrated on their first few casts because they're spinning up a bird's nest with the line on their reel every time they attempt to cast.   Line on Your Reel: Make sure the line you're using on your reel is not too heavy.   Keep it light, and avoid the bird's nest.   Reel Tension: The video briefly covers this, but if you hold your rod at 2 o'clock with the lure your using, and release the bail with your thumb, the lure should drop slowly - not drop like a rock to the ground.     If adjusting your line tension doesn't help stop your line from ratting up in the spool, look at your reel's owner's manual on how to adjust the brakes.   With these simple tips you'll be casting you're lures when lake trout fishing anywhere you want with ease.

"which knot to tie fly on"

I was on a local fly fishing forum the other day and noticed a thread titled "which knot to tie fly on". After reading through the entire thread (51 posts in all so far) it occurred to me that not one person had mentioned the knot that we have been almost using exclusively for the last few years. Clinch knot, improved clinch knot, turtle knot, Trilene knot, loop knot, nail knot, Duncan loop knot, etc, etc, etc - they were all there but after trying them all I finally settled on one that has proven to be very strong, very simple to tie, and has the very low profile beneficial for fishing the tiny stuff. The knot is called the Davy Wotton and it's the first in the flyguys.net series on fly fishing knots! The story behind the knot is that Davy Wotton, one of the coaches in the World Youth Fly Fishing Championships and long time competitor for the Welsh national fly fishing team, through trial and error invented a knot that allowed him to attach a fly in seconds - a criti

Ontario

www.rodflyfishing2.com Over the years I spent many a spring in northern Ontario just after the ice has vanished from the many lakes that populate the northern Ontario landscape. This for the most part calls for accurate planning, come too soon and the ice will still be on the lake, come too late and the lake has started to turn. Once the lake is started to turn, the water becomes very murky and is a lot harder to attract fish to your lures. By turning I mean the cold water on the top of the lake settles to the bottom and the warmer water from the bottom comes to the top. Hit it right and you can land a ton of fish, arrive at the wrong time and you may not see a fish all week, even though you are spending lots of hours on the water. Now the fish at this time a year, will be near the surface or along the shoreline. Some of the water that I fish have both Brook trout, and lake trout, which can offer up some awesome brook trout, and lake trout fishing.. There are tons of articles on t
