Glad someone started a thread for this.

And I always pinch my barbs down - especially if I'm whipping them around on a fly rod.

Same, this thread is awesome. That Do-It website is blownig my mind right now. I'm also in the 100% pinch my barbs down and my dad always gives me poo poo for it but in all the years I've been doing it I haven't lost fish for it.

That's a fantastic post! Beautiful work; thanks for sharing it.


This is great info, too. Fish behavior is so important to understand, but there is a lot of bad information out there and people run the risk of convincing themselves of things that aren't necessarily true and long-term gently caress themselves. Thanks for providing a quality source!

So in the past there has been some talk about the possibility of a traveling flybox and/or lure box. Would people participate if I started one?

A traveling fly box is such a good idea and I'm in agreement with the rest too.


Keep posting pics if you don't mind they're great!

Whoa are you making your own buzz bombs? Also kidney sinkers would probably be in my top 3 most purchased fishing related item, you're really making me want to get my own set up here. What do you use storm sinkers for?

Wait a sec could I make my own kastmaster spoons?!

I had a dream I found a 2 foot long feather that was a beautiful color I'd never seen before and I was excited to tie the perfect fly with it

Just bought a rod, anyone have any resource they could recommend for the basics? Casting, when to use which flies, etc, literally any video at all that ins't chock full of bullshit

The best advice you can get is just look up Bill Dance Bloopers on youtube and do everything he does, hes a pro

Most people dont realize how dangerous snakes falling out of trees on your head are for instance
