The Lists

I love targeting unusual species on flies. It presents new challenges and learning curves. I've said before that I will give up fishing the day I no longer learn from it. I don't see much chance of me quitting before I die.

So her is my list so far in the short time I have been using flies to fish, in no particular order.

Brown Trout
Brook Trout
Tiger Trout
Rainbow Trout
Smallmouth Bass
Largemouth Bass
Chain Pickerel

Striped Bass
Black Crappy
White Perch
Yellow Perch
Common Shiner
Chub
Fallfish
White Sucker

My goals for next year:
