Members warlock Posted January 24, 2009 Members Posted January 24, 2009 Hello all. Just thought I'd post here to let everybody know a little about me. I just started fly fishing last summer. Since then I have taken up rod building and fly tying. I have built 3 rods, 1 spinning rod, and 2 fly rods. All 3 turned out pretty good. My daughter uses the ultra light spinning rod that I built. The 2 fly rods are a 7'6" 2p 4wt, and a 6'6" 2p 2wt. The fly rods aren't works of art, function vs. form. My fly fishing has been limited to Roaring River State Park, 4 times last summer. I plan on expanding that this season with trips to Beaver Lake Tailwaters, Crane Creek and maybe a few more places, along with more trips to RRSP. My first trip this year will probably be meeting up with Badkarma at RRSP on his trip, March 7th - 9th. Since most trout waters are 2+ hours away from me, I have to wait for the water to soften around here before I do any fishing. Fly tying has been an interesting/learning experience for me. Kept it pretty simple so far, some wooly buggers, some PT nymphs, some scuds, and a few others. I might start trying my hand at some smaller dry's next. Who knows.... Anyway, Glad to be here and I hope everybody has a great 2009. Tight Lines, Warlock
DD'sMC Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Welcome aboard. Keep you eye out for the fly swaps. Great way to perfect your patterns and to get a variety of new patterns from others to try yourself. We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. The two best times to go fishing? When it is raining and when it is not.
BadKarma Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Well, there goes the neighborhood! I've known Warlock for almost 10 years. Can't wait to hookup at RR, should be a ton of fun. Welcome aboard my brother. Lee Don't worry about life, your not going to survive it anyway. Go fishing instead.
