Hey all. So I've been lurking here for who knows how long, but I decided it was time to come forward. Hi, my name is Redsider, and I'm a fly fisher. I was thrown into fly fishing as a kid and I've loved it ever since. I don't have a great story to share though :rolleyes:. I have a few stories, but no great ones. The most I can say is that I caught two fish at once on a hedged bet a couple times, but that doesn't make me special.
I guess I do have an Ifish related story though. I needed confidence before I started fishing for winter-steelhead on a fly, and found it on Ifish. I have since decided that they do not exist. I thought I hooked one once, but it had to have been a rock moving fast and wierdly through an odd current. It jumped and moved, but i swear it was a rock. Darn you all for making me believe one could be caught on a fly. Just kiding.
Anyways, hello, and I'm here to stay.

Who hasn't tossed gear in a moment of desperasion? I regret it, but admit it. Flys only from then on out.

Welcome to the board! I am fairly new myself, and there is so much information to be gained here, it it remarkable!
I would like to hear some elaboration on the gear chucking incident, though - I have come close many times, but after the amount I spent for it - I think my wife would forbid from ever buying anything else if I did.
