    For those who enjoy fly fishing, or fishing for that matter

    This weekend, I went out fly fishing for the first time this season. Wow was it nice out. The trout were just starting to rise and are hitting elk caddis, bead head nymphs, and black wooly buggers. Anyone else out there into fly fishing?
