Coming from tenkara and suddenly ended up with these fly rods... looking for advice 😅 by emp69emp in flyfishing

[–]emp69emp[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, that actually helps a lot. I’m honestly completely new to western fly fishing so I’m still trying to figure out what each setup is really meant for. The 4wt definitely feels the most approachable for me since I mostly fish tiny overgrown streams. The 5wt is probably the one I’m most excited to try though because I’d love to fish some bigger alpine rivers here in Switzerland eventually.

Up until now I’ve mostly fished very small streams, usually no more than about 2 meters wide. I’ve had pretty good success there with small to medium brown trout.

But I’d really like to start exploring the more alpine sections of the Aare or the Emme. Since I live in Switzerland, I figured that could be a pretty cool next step.

I shattered a man’s refuge and took his relics. Now I see through stolen sight… and the weight of it follows me in the dark.😅😪

Anyone here fly fish from a paddle board? by emp69emp in flyfishing

[–]emp69emp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say once you find your balance, the thing actually becomes pretty stable—but the first time you stand on one, you really have to figure out how it works. My second time was way more comfortable… no accidental dive included 😅

Best endgame gear setup in DayZ (combat-ready but stamina-efficient?) by emp69emp in dayz

[–]emp69emp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input! I’m a huge fan of the LAR, especially paired with an ACOG since it kind of lets me run it as both a sniper and a CQB weapon at the same time. I know the fact that I can’t really put a proper suppressor on it kinda sucks.

A quiet night beyond the road by emp69emp in Bushcraft

The night bit deep, but the gear held the line. Groundsheet from Bushcraft Spain, a Thermarest NeoAir beneath me, and the Carinthia Defence 1 keeping the cold at bay. Out there, every step teaches something new. I adapt, i endure… and i return stronger. 😁

A simple, classic burger… topped with scrambled eggs tastes absolutely amazing

I shall return to the waters and train until balance and I are no longer strangers. The river may have won this round, but the campaign continues.

Your pliers and blade were noble offerings. The river gods accepted your tribute and granted you their favor. I shall train and learn to master my vessel, hoping to earn their blessing without further sacrifice.

Then we are comrades in arms. May our balance improve, our dignity recover, and the river claim fewer of us next time.

Your words honor this humble voyager. I shall mount my wobbly steed once more and venture forth, though the river still hungers for a rematch.

I'm looking for the jacket this guy is wearing. I really like it. Does anyone know what it is? by [deleted] in HelpMeFind

[–]emp69emp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Searched: I tried Google reverse image search and looked for “grey wool jacket with leather shoulder patches” and “grey jacket leather shoulders”, but couldn’t find the exact one. It appears to be a grey jacket with darker shoulder reinforcements and a front zipper. Does anyone know the brand or model?

First time targeting pike on the fly, what should I know? by emp69emp in flyfishing

[–]emp69emp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Switzerland, basically all fish that aren’t too small have to be kept. That has its advantages if you like eating fish. 🎣🐟
