types of artificial flies for
fly fishing?
Wet Fly Fishing Flys
The flys are supposed to
resemble certain insects as
they would look beneath the
surface of the water. Fish
will bite at wet fly fishing
flys, thinking that they are
drowned insects, aquatic
insects, or larvae swimming to
the surface to hatch. When
using wet flys, you are not
necessarily trying to imitate
a particular insect or fish,
etc. (whereas you are trying
to do so when using dry flies
or nymphs). Wet fly fishing
flys are supposed to imitate
insects in motion… they look
like they are swimming to the
surface or drowning, etc. You
do not need perfect technique
to fish with wet flys.
Dry Fly Fishing Flys
These fly fishing flys are
meant to resemble an insect
floating on the surface of the
water (although, some do not
imitate insects, but rather
frogs, snakes, or mice, etc.)
To keep the fly on the surface
of the water, many of them
need to be oiled with
something like Gink. Some flys
rely on the surface tension of
the water to float.

How do you run a trout
line?
Is there a video out there?
I`m looking for retirement
property in the country and
I`d like to live off the land
a little more. Thanks in
advance for any input.
Since it seems that you will
be new to trot lining,here is
what you need to do. Buy you a
trot line that is already made
up of main line, staging, and
hooks - it will come in a pack
with 25 hooks to a pack, These
can be purchased at your local
wal- mart or tackle shop, The
main line holds the staging
and the staging holds the
hooks-The staging is just a
smaller diameter line then the
main line.

Musky Madness: 5 Tips to Catch
More Muskies
Musky are often referred to as
the fish of a thousand casts,
but that’s not always so.
Muskies are in fact readily
available! Here’s how you
can land your share of
muskies.
1. Tactics
You can certainly cast for
muskies, but you can also
drift or troll for muskies.
When casting for muskies, big
baits lures work well, but so
do small lures. The difference
is that if you use small
lures, you may also catch
types of smaller fish (like
bass, walleye etc).

Is spiderwire really all that
good or are there better
brands of line?
I have 10 pound spiderwire
mono line rite now but im
thinking about getting braided
line..is there anythign out
there better then
spiderwire?
This in truth all comes down
to what each angler likes, ive
tried spider wire on a few
occasions and although its not
too bad i felt that it lacked
the quality it should have had
for the price, power pro is a
good option, especially if you
fish saltwater, but i also
like stren microfuse braided
lines along with berkley
fireline, try and give each
one a go if you know someone
who fishes with each one have
a try of them and see which
one works best for you.

Open Water Trolling for
Walleyes
As summer approaches the water
temperatures warm and many
Minnsota lakes start to
develop a wider range of
fishable locations. Many
midlake structures starts to
hold fish as well as basin
areas. Fish tend to be on the
edges of flats, rock reefs,
and suspended in the basin
adjacent to spawning areas..
When water temps reach the
60`s fish will start schooling
up in these areas and large
post-spawn females will start
actively feeding.

what is the best way to tie
leadcore to my trolling
reel?
Assuming that you`re not
filling the spool totally with
leadcore line, tie your
backing to the spool by
whatever knot is handy. This
one, in the end, doesn`t
really matter.
Spool the necessary amount of
backing onto your reel to
leave enough room for the
100-yards of leadcore you`ll
be using. (When you are
finished, you want your
leadcore to fill the spool to
within 1/4" of the edge.) Tie
the leadcore to your backing
with a barrel knot (or
similar) and trim the ends
fairly close. Continue to fill
the spool with your leadcore
until full as indicated above.

what surf fishing reel?
Hi! I want to buy a good
quality reel for surf fishing,
using a 20lb test line of
mono, and 3 to 5 oz lead
weight, I`m thinking about a
conventional reel less than
$200.00. The reason is because
the conventional reel holds
more line (about 400yds of
25lb) than the spinning reel,
any suggestions? I was
