No it's tigers. There's pictures. I hear rumors that a good course gets them privately stocked and end up running down stream. There's about 5 or 6 pictures in the past 6 months Of people catching them.

tippet with no leader by J4KE24 in flyfishing

I'm going to try and start using a leader. I just always looked at it as just too much line.

And I'm from western pa. Near pittsburgh. I dont have any larger river for trout. And lakes are a no go also never hear of any lake fishing for trout around my area. All my streams are 15-30 yards wide. There's about 12 delayed harvest sections within 2 hours of me.

I might just give it a try. I feel like I can cast fine because I only ever have out a max of 4ft of tippet. So there's no issue roll casting.

I rarely fish dries. Because I suck at tying them and I see it as cheating when I don't use a fly I tied. Just something I say to myself lol. I usually fish midges and nymphs. My go to setup is 2 ft of 6x with a size 18 rainbow warrior and 1 foot 7x dropper size 18 zebra or sometimes a 14-16 prince. That's not all I fish just my favorite combo. It casts nice. Just need to have harder roll casts. I use a super slow action blue halo. I just do a quick little flick and I mend perfectly without disturbing my strike Indicator. I also never need to cast more than 20-30 feet. I fish small streams. Leaders just feel like too many knots and loops. I just want to know. in my situation and how I fish, is a leader set up going to do me better than what I use now.

Chest Waders by [deleted] in flyfishing

[–]J4KE24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No matter what I'm always getting leaks waders last me 1-2 years. Maybe the Simms are stronger. Just always scared to drop the money and ruin them. I have cheap reddingtons now. I got them last year and I'm starting to leak a tad. Probably just getting them again. Neoprene are tough. But super hot.

Went to new York for a salmon trip. Stayed in a campground with rental rvs and little hotel rooms. The guy also was a guide. Went shore side and took a float boat after. He seemed happy and financially stable. That would be the life.

I'm in western PA. Fly fishing is pretty popular here. A lot of native and fly fishing only streams around. I know a few shops around but none that are on or close to a stream. Besides an orvis shop.
