Fishing Flies Assortment

Fishing Flies Assortment
What is a good Fly kit/assortment to buy for freshwater fishing for an 8wt rod?

mainly for bass, peacock bass and some smaller fish like bluegill and cichlids.

I hate to be a "spoil sport" but purchasing "Fly kits" is never a good idea.

Why?

Usually, in a kit that has 6-8 Flys only 3 will end up "working".

In much larger kits, (like the ones Cabela's & Bass Pro Shop sell), you will find more that "work" but not enough for the kit to be a "bargain".

Here is a set of Flys that would be perfect for South Florida, Freshwater, Flyfishing:

1. Woolly Grubber- http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat380003&id=0030363310297a&navCount=2&podId=0030363310297&parentId=cat380003&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=9IS&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat601233&hasJS=true

2.

3. Rainys Inshore Pop- http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat400007&id=0030135320608a&navCount=15&podId=0030135320608&parentId=cat400007&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=9IS&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat601233&hasJS=true

4. Clouser Minnow- http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=MainCatcat20431-cat400007&id=0030135310302a&navCount=17&podId=0030135310302&parentId=cat400007&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=9IS&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat601233&hasJS=true

5. Rainys Tsunami Fly- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_97650_175002003_175000000_175002000?cmCat=CROSSSELL_SEARCH

If you purchase 2-3 of each of the above Flys you would have one HECK of a nice Bass, Peacock, Cichlid, Bluegill kit!

And I know (for a fact) that each one of these Flys will work consistently.......(I've used them before). If you don't trust my recommendations please read the reviews of the flys I've suggested.

Bottomline- Would you rather have 4 Flys that work or 8 that "kinda" work, (or don't work at all).

Hope this helps ya? Good luck fishing!

There are several types of bait that can be used for trout fishing, both live and synthetic, but it is the best? In this article I will use my twenty years plus experience trout fishing to answer this question. Although it is impossible to say bait is the best, you may list the trout bait they have always been productive for me. Then you can try to determine what type of bait works best for you.

By day's end that is what the best fishing bait for trout (or any other type of fishing) is the bait that works best for you. Anyway, if you know what to use for trout, while the primers for then serve you well when fishing for colorful fish known as the trout. If you have or have not used any of these baits fishing for trout, I suggest you add to your portfolio sooner rather than later.

1. Spinners - Spinners are a lure to use for trout. Generally speaking, you want to stay with small spinners. If you are fishing for large trout spinners you can use really big, but as a rule rather small spinners for trout fishing, 1 / 16-3 / 8 Oz spinners are good steps to start. Having a variety of sizes available, and try to find the size is more productive for a given day. The same rule applies to color wheel. Experimentation is the key. Dark colors like black and Brown has always seemed to be most productive for me personally. I also prefer gold spinners. Some spinners of quality are achieved by the two-tailed rooster and Blue Fox
2. Salmon eggs - Salmon roe bait may be ideal for this type of fishing, especially in the spring of the year for rainbow trout. Most rainbow trout spawn - in spring and eat the eggs of others. This is a good time to use salmon eggs as bait. We will attack in a series of hooks and allow eggs to flow naturally with the current of a river or stream is a tactic of trout fishing.
3. Worms - Worms are a very good bait for trout fishing. Both worms live and synthetic (like Berkley Power worms) are very effective. In fact, I been situations where worms are the most energy efficient to live. The most effective way to handle a worm is a strip of hook and how effective to carry live worms while fishing for trout is a JRW Bait bag. The bag of bait means that worms are always at hand, instead of the jacket fishing somewhere. This is a enormous time savings. If you want to know what to use to fish for trout, worms are a good place to start.

As I said earlier in this article all these baits are effective when fishing for trout. Their job is to find what works best for you and for the area you tendency to fish for trout. I have all the baits above in my fishing vest, so you can switch from one to another as needed.
