A Fishing Half Day Well Spent

Sometimes the most simple of fishing trips can become a true bucket list memory. Last fall two friends and I decided to sneak out of work for a quick half-day outing to some local marsh southwest of our hometown of Lafayette, LA.

SPEAKIN ENGLIS: JULY 2013

I think it was 8 years ago now that I found my passion for fishing to be a little bit overboard. I know that I have mentioned before, but the need to replace a bad habit and better myself led me to this addiction that is now a profession. Thinking back to those first six months that I went from driving around the creek chasing my tail with a double dropper rig, 3 oz pyramid sinker, and nasty frozen shrimp to actually locating reds and letting my Carolina rigs with live mullet do the work.

Fly anglers are as attracted to their flies as fish are, and in some cases, can be even more attracted to them than the fish.

There are weighted flies and unweighted flies. So, what are the best flies? The simple answer is: it depends.

Bucket List: Bow River Bullets

Without a doubt, Alberta, Canada’s Bow River is a world-class trout fishery.
