Hunting-The Rites of Fall

I enjoy the change of season. The air and smells take on the slightest reflection of the winter to come. For lots of us it begins a ritual. In my house and countless homes across the Southeast, folks are getting prepared for hunting season. It doesn’t make any difference if you are a bow hunter or a gun hunter, it’s all the same preparation. I spend countless hours preparing gear, clothes, tools and the areas I will hunt in anticipation of time in the woods. First and foremost is the clothing I will wear. Here’s what I do to get ready for opening day.

Nine Alternative Deceiver Patterns

Lefty’s Deceiver may be the most effective fly pattern ever. Lefty Kreh developed the fly in the 1950s and since then Deceivers have caught fish all over the world. Lefty describes the Deceiver as a tying method rather than a specific fly pattern. This allows for modifications in color, size and materials. These alterations have made the Deceiver extremely versatile. Here are a few “alternative” Deceivers you should think about tying.
