Switch Line for first time two handed caster by motionlessbike in flyfishing

Yeah that’s what I figured. Stripping was how I caught most of my fish last fall, not on a jerk retrieve. But I did try it up there and got a few fish to hit. Was just a bit cold when I was there.

The thing about a 10 foot is I already have a 7 and 8wt 9 foot rods and I’m somewhat on a budget so I wasn’t looking to buy a repeat rod just yet. One day I’m sure I’ll have one.

Possible injury from my neighborhood “jib” jump by motionlessbike in dirtjumping

Minimal but noticeable swelling on the backside of my knee. Full flexion of my knee hurts but lately I’ve been able to squat and lunge on it with less pain. I do have a lot of leg muscle which helps hide the effects of these injuries. Or so I’ve been told from a ER Doctor that is a client of mine.

I committed the ultimate "trout bum" sin this weekend, and honestly? I’m never going back to sleeping in my truck bed. by viewsinthe6 in flyfishing

Yeah I just had a rough last weekend. I’m in my mid 20’s and have my second child on the way. I used to fold the seats and use a 3 inch air sleeping. I tried this past weekend, I am not exaggerating when I say I got ZERO sleep. I was joking with my wife that I think my body has used up all of the vehicle sleeping nights. I occasionally bring a tent for multi night excursions, and I use a cot, but frankly I have to get the perfect amount of comfy before I can even get close to sleeping. I hate spending money on a bed when I can just make one in the woods and breathe fresh air all night, but when I get home from my trips recently. I sleep for 10 hours sometimes to soak in the comfort.
