I've been here before, and I'm glad it is here again for me to visit once more. I can be found on a number of internet forums, but I'm online a lot less than I used to be.
I was never a big poster here, but I enjoyed reading the stories and dreaming of fishing new waters.
Right now the rivers where I live look like this:
While the rivers are fishable, -7 degrees (19F) is not the most enjoyable weather... but much better than the -40deg weather from the previous week.
I really dream of returning to my small streams when the season opens.
Merry Christmas,
Hi all,
I'm Brett and I am originally from Hawaii. I currently am in Philadelphia, PA attending school at the University of Pennsylvania. I grew up using UL spin gear to fish the small streams of Hawaii for smallmouth bass and the surrounding ocean for anything that i could fool. I also dabbled in fly fishing as a youngster, but only with an 8 wt in the salty stuff. In the last two years I have picked up UL fly fishing for trout in some of the beautiful and legendary trout streams of PA. I currently only fish a Sage SPL 181-3 and a St. Croix Imperial 602.2, but I am in the process of wrapping my first cane rod, a 6' 1 piece 2wt based on the Orvis Flea taper. I look forward to learning a lot from all of the knowledgeable people on this board.
Aloha,
Brett
Hi everyone, I am Ulf, I am from Sweden and I am a flytying / flyfishing addict.
I live by the baltic sea just south of Stockholm far from any good trout or grayling stream, but I still prefer fishing the running waters, especially the small ones, far up north in Sweden. I do confess to fish a lot with flies for pike in my home waters in the baltic also, which is a nice contrast to the light stream fishing.
Flytying is my thing, and I like to add that little realistic touch to my flies and I have been fortunate to be invited to a few shows around the world to come and show my flies and my way of tying them.
I help out my friends at http://www.elmerfishing.com as much as I can with articles and other stuff, these are my close buddies of fishermen who I go on trips with 3-4 times per year. I also have a little gallery together with my friend Leif Örtenholm at http://www.artonhook.com last and least I run a little blog thing at http://ulfhagstrom.blogspot.com.
I also have two sons; Kristoffer who is five and Wilmer who is soon to be one year old!
Warm greetings
Ulf
Ulf,
I just looked at some of your flies and they are amazing! How do you get such realistic detail?
Brett
Welcome Ulf, glad you found your way here.
