Spring Fly Fishing on a Small Lake
I’m not sure about you but one of my very favorite things is to fly fish new water. Recently, in a very round-a-bout way I came across an opportunity to try out some new water. Once school was over I loaded up the truck and off I went. New water is like a big puzzle […]
