My name is Bob and together with a fishing buddy of mine, Jeff we are developing this blog just to allow you to see what we are up to here in NH with respect to Fly Fishing. This is our first post and more intended to let you know what you should expect to find here in the future.
Jeff and I have each been Fly Fishing on and off for a number of years. We have typically been your river going fisherman, hunting trout (and sometimes salmon) throughout the various places each of us have lived including NJ, PA, NY, VT and NH. Both of us have sons who play Lacrosse in town and while standing on the side lines discovered that we both enjoyed fly fishing from time to time. We occasionally got together to fish some local streams and last year we started fishing from kayaks and have really enjoyed it. Up here in NH most rivers run a little warm in the summers for trout but we have found that we can still catch our limit from the ponds and lakes here and have been having a ball doing so. Between the two of us we have built our own rods, tied our own fly’s and caught fish using both. I wouldn’t say we are experts in the field by any stretch of the imagination, just a couple of guys who enjoy being out on the rivers or lakes enjoying the hunt and open to all types of Fly Fishing.
What we hope to create is a site that others will enjoy and maybe relate to, a site where others can post their experiences, maybe a few secret spots to fish and some tips on how to catch fish. Jeff and I are always open to some help if it means making us better fly fishermen and catching more fish. We tend to fish for trout but are planning on going for other species as well. Last weekend was opening season on NH’s trout managed ponds and we both were out there on our kayaks catching brookies and tiger trout Saturday afternoon. Soon we hope to post a few pictures of our outings and hope you will share some of yours as well.
