Taking your children fishing for the first time is one of the most important things you may ever do with your kids. You get to show them something you know, they get to show you their first fish. Everyone has a great time. Lessons are learned about nature and our place in it and indelible memories are created.

A few key strategies will make these first outings go much smoother. As I mentioned in "Fly Fishing with Children Part 1 - Getting Them Started", the days when you are teaching your children to fish are not about you fishing but about them learning to fish. Don't expect to present any flies of your own. If you start with this in mind the day will be so much more rewarding for both you and your miniature anglers. Break the sport into bite-sized pieces so you can explain key concepts and so they will be able to ask questions as they think of them. Don't get yourself in a hurry. Take a breath and relax.

Create an opportunity for success: Pick water that you know is likely to yield as many opportunities as possible for catching fish. This may seem impossible these days but try to pick water that does not get over-fished. Go somewhere that contains a healthy population of fish and that is easily accessible. Mid-Summer is a great time for a first day on the water - the flows are down from run-off conditions, the bugs are thriving, the fish are settled in, what more could you want - everyone should be fishing!

Entomology: Take a minute at the start of the day to turn over some rocks and show your kiddos some great creepy-crawlies live and up-close. Squish a cased caddis out of it's shell so they can understand what's going on there. Just one, though. I don't think Mother Nature will mind. See if you can find some worms at the edges of the water under the rocks and dirt. Look for stone-fly husks on dry rocks and brush along the banks, they're very cool and dramatic examples of the diverse bug life on a creek or a river. Point out the tiny callibaetis larvae crawling around the bottoms of slimy upside-down rocks. Kids will roll bugs around their fingers all day if you let them.

Rigging: You will already have spent some time with your children in the park teaching them to cast, so now set them up with single-dry-fly-rigs that are easy to cast and don't tangle as much as multi-fly nymph rigs. Kids (or any other beginners, for that matter) do not need complicated and difficult to manage, much less cast, 2 or 3-fly "prospecting" rigs loaded with weight and strike indicators. Start them out with a nice parachute-style dry fly, like a Pale Morning Dun with a nice hi-vis post on it's back, a Royal Wulff, a Royal Humpy, a Royal Stimulator, a Parachute Adams - something they can keep an eye on as it drifts. Initially, the fishing is not as important as the comprehension of what they're trying to do.

Presentation: Talk to them about the presentation, hold a fly by the curve of the hook and imitate it's presentation and drift in front of their eyes - let them imitate the drift with their own fly and appreciate how handsome those hand-tied flies are in the bright Summer sun. Point out air bubbles in the currents and talk to them about keeping the rod tip moving at the same speed as the bubbles. Toss in a small stick and point out how it moves at the same speed as those bubbles - that's a good one. Discuss slack line and how it must be taken up so they can set the hook when they see a fish take the fly. Discuss the set, it should be gentle and easy, small but firm - so the presentation of the fly can continue down the stream if they miss the fish. This also helps develop good habits for the nymphing lesson they will get on another day.

Wading: We had a couple of rules when my kids were beginning to fish rivers and streams. They have always been great, competitive swimmers but they were only allowed to wade up to their knees. Any deeper and there were consequences. The other rule was that they had to remain upstream of me at all times. Simple, common-sense rules. They were broken regularly and consequences were handed out to match the "violation".

Finally: Let them fish. Now your job is to watch carefully for their safety as well as their frustration. Your job and your reward is to step to the rescue for those casting knots, snags, lost footings, and hopefully to help land a fish. You can fish on your own later.

Go enjoy your children!

Are you planning to go trout fishing? Well Trout Fishing can be very exciting. And it becomes even more exciting if you have never done it before. I don't know why maybe because of the fear of the unknown (lol). But ya fly fishing for Trout's is fun and exciting.

But you need to be well prepared before you venture into the waters to catch the fish. Because Smart Fish as the Trout's are known are very smart. They can become very difficult to catch if you have not done your home work.

And being a fisherman you must have got into a habit of studying the fish you are going to catch before you go out fishing right? If not then you need to. Studying the fish you are going to catch is very important because you need to know their feeding habits, their behavior in different conditions and various places they flock. That's when catching your fish will become easy.

Ok so let's get started. First of all you need to figure out where your target trout fish is. I mean you need to get the map if necessary and do a bit of research. Next you need to have the right equipment.

Trout's are known as 'Smart Fish' and they are known so for a reason, it's because they are very smart and they are strong. I mean they are very strong they can easily break your line when you try and pull them off from the water. If they break away then its bad news, not only for you but also for the trout because when they break the hook is still in them. And worst case scenario they might die off that injury.

So you might want to consider carry a hemostat which is a tool used to remove swallowed hook. Then of course you need proper vest and wader. And then put on a pair of waterproof (Ya I know its obvious) boots.

Then of course you need a good Fly rod and Fly reel. Well if you are just starting out and are trying out trout fishing for the first time then an inexpensive fly rod and fly reel will work just fine. But if you are quite experienced and or have some plans to become a serious trout fisherman then I strongly recommend you getting a good quality fly rod and fly reel.

The typical description for a good quality fly rod and fly reel would be the one which is ultra light, flexible, cast easier and makes it easy for you to feed a strike or a bite. Rods that are 6 - 6 ½ feet are good for casting and makes it easier to use float.

Well that much should prepare you for a good round of trout fishing. Trout fishing techniques are a topic of another whole article.

Discover the trout fishing techniques that experts never want you to know. Click here to start trout fishing right away.

Drag Fly Reel

How would you switch the drag side on a eagle claw brave eagle fly rod (fec10)?

I have recently bought a eagle claw brave eagle fly rod on ebay. When i opened it up and started to play with it i relieved that the way the drag was set was for a person that real with the right hand (odd). I throw with my right and reel with my left. Is there any way to switch it around. Thanks

Yes, there is- All reels have a way of switching from right to left hand retrive. Remove the spool and look inside the reel- does it have a simple click and pawl drag? (two triangles that click on a central gear) If thats all it is, then you can simply respool the line the opposite direction. If there is a clutch then it will have to be converted. There should be directions for how to switch it- either without tools or a few simple ones. If you still can't figure it out, check out Eagle claws website and ask for help, or take it to a fly shop they can help you figure it out.

P.S>- I looked at the reel on ebay, looks like its a single action click and pawl, so should be a simple matter of just respooling line the other way.

Good Luck

Anglers Fly
Fly Anglers..Here are a few questions for you?

Do you consider yourself a "Purist"? What is your definition of a purist? If you do, why is it important to you?
I'm gonna put this to vote in a couple days as I think that there can be no bad answer to this.

Kevin, that is a loaded question, but very interesting and I'm sure you'll get many different types of responses, here's mine:

When I think of purist, I harken back to "A River Runs Through It" -
Dry fly fishing only for trout, with integrity and a code of honor.

My belief is that an "absolute" purist only fishes dry flies during a hatch and matches the hatch (RE: no attractor or generic patterns, quill body
Catskill style flies only).

Now I'm sure that there are many anglers out there today due to geographical location don't have access to this type of fishing.
That doesn't mean they are not purists. Perhaps they pursue
bass, muskie, pike, bonefish, and other species with the same
type of ethics, that in my belief makes them purists.

It's my belief that the code of honor (fishing fairly) and ethics
(proper manners) are what makes you a purist.

Fishing Etiquette Take your a-line

Simple politeness dictates that you take your line out of the water for any angler with a fish line. This gives us plenty of space for the country of your fish. This rule is very important when fishing downstream youÂ're fisherman of others. Make sure you never step in the space of an angler who is releasing or landing a fish shore.

Fishing Etiquette - Silence

Always youÂ'll that youÂ're fly fishing should be as quiet the cane ... and that means letting your dog and the radio at home. There are two reasons you want to be as quiet as possible: (1) donÂ't you want to scare the fish, and (2) you donÂ't want to disrupt the progress of other fishermen. Many people enjoy fly fishing for peace and solitude it offers.

Fishing Etiquette a-Lending a helping hand

Always ready to help other fishermen. This can also be simple to help retrieve something floating downstream or loans to something they need, as the extra line. YouÂ're all that is there for a fun day fly fishing to help each other only lends to the experience.

Wading Safely

YouÂ're ford When you follow a few basic rules: (1) never fish by yourself on remote lakes, rivers or streams, (2) using a pair of wading boots, (3) use equipment wading product that is flexible, but solid, and (4) know the area where waders youÂ're. Wading is a great way to get access these places couldnÂ't achieve otherwise.

Tackle Boxes

Tackle boxes: A tackle box is a necessity for you can save all your "stuff" with you in an organized place. Some things to consider when use a tackle box and want to avoid excessive fill include:
 Keep your worms · soft plastic baits in a small bowl Other lures. This will keep the soft plastic lures from creating a chemical reaction with materials that other baits were made.
• A purchase two or more small fishing equipment to keep certain categories of lures. For example, buying a box bait to contain worms and another to celebrate their Spinnerbaits.
A season · Buy boxes that used to only certain times of the year. In spring, you can have a tackle box that contains models, plastic worms, head and draws. And fall May have a tackle box is filled to attract the fall, as topwaters and Crankbaits.

Keep your fishing vest organized

If you use a fishing vest to carry around your forehead and attract youÂ'll want to keep as organized as you can so that nobody youÂ're not groping for anything if needed. If it does not use something youÂ're leaves his house to get along just the essentials.

Make a wading staff

YouÂ're When fishing in water that is rough or unfamiliar you want perhaps make a wading staff to keep stable and provide better balance.

Wear Good Shoes

A good pair of wading shoes will let your grip the bottom youÂ're running. Choose shoes with rubber soles because they are ideal for funds that are made of mud, gravel, sand or soft sediment.

Wear sunscreen

Although you may seem a small tip to mention, taking along the sun block is something that you donÂ't want to forget. After standing in a creek eight hours of sun youÂ'll glad you remembered to bring some protection.

Using polarized glasses

Use Tinted glass is one of the best things you can do. YouÂ'll be able to see under water if you can keep an eye on your fish. DonÂ't forget a hat to reduce the amount of reflection of light of experience.

Discourage insects

To discourage insects youÂ'll want to avoid wearing clothes that are red, yellow, black, white or blue. These colors can attract black flies, horse flies, mosquitoes and gnats.

Selecting the first fly-fishing outfit is the most difficult step once you have decided to participate in fly-fishing. Five essential items make up a fishing outfit. They are the line, rod, leader, reel and the fly. It is essential that each item of the outfit works in an efficient manner and is comfortable for your use. When all these items work together efficiently, the outfit is considered as balanced. Success in fly-fishing depends on the outfit, and therefore it is important to select the right outfit suitable for you. Some basic tips on how to select each of these items is given below:

1. The fly fishing line:

The first item to select is the line. This is because the line weight is the important factor. There are many different types of lines available and it is essential to choose the right one. The line weight designation in the code should match the one on the rod, which will be used. Beginners in fly-fishing can select the double tapered line, which is most commonly used. The various types of lines include weight forward, level line, tapered line and shooting taper. The floating function should be chosen for your first line. A floating line would be suited to your needs for fly-fishing. The line weight would depend on where you will be going to fish.

2. Fly fishing rod:

The three key things to consider while choosing the fly fishing rod are its length, its action and the material it is made up of. Fly-fishing rods are usually made from bamboo, fiberglass, baron or graphite. Fiberglass is the cheapest material used for fishing rods, but it is not convenient in terms of diameter and weight. Bamboo or cane rods are usually handcrafted works of art and are very expensive. These require a lot of care compared to synthetic fly fishing rods. Graphite fly-fishing rods are lightweight and durable and enable the angler to perform any action easily. Therefore, these are the most popular fly fishing rods. Baron fishing rods are the most expensive among the synthetic rods.

3. The fly fishing Reel:

There are 3 types of fishing reels: single action, automatic and multiplier. The most basic of the three is the single action fly reel, which should be selected for a first fly-fishing outfit. Multiplier and automatic fishing reel are not practical for a beginner.

4. Fly leader:

The fly leader is a tiny portion of monofilament line used to fasten the end of the fly line to the fly. The power generated at the time of the cast must be transferred from the end of the fly line to the fly, therefore the correct leader must be chosen. Factors playing a role in the selection of a fly leader are whether the fly leader should be straight or tapered, whether it should be knotless or knotted. The tippet size and the weight of the lead should also be considered.

5. Fishing Fly:

Choosing the fly for your fly fishing outfit depends on factors like the kind of fish you will be targeting and where you will be fishing. It is also a matter of personal preference.

The 5 items of your balanced fly fishing out fit are now chosen. What are you waiting for? Go out there and cast your line to catch those fish and enjoy your adventure!

nope you want a long leader it is the iinvisible barier between the fly and yellow line aka fly line but if you are fishing quicker little rivers id use a 7 to 7.5 ft leader for lakes and larger rivers i would use a 9 ft and if you can find it some guys like a 10 or 12 ft for lakes but you dont need that

Most trout fishermen are familiar with the basic species they will encounter in their local streams t and lakes. Rainbow (the most commonly stocked fish), lake trout, brown trout, Brook trout and even the rarer Cutthroat and Apache all have their own fisheries and public education programs. However, anglers may not be aware of the rarer and prized hybrids that are produced by hatcheries or occur rarely in nature.

One of the more prized and certainly most dramatic trout hybrid species is the Tiger trout. Tiger trout are notable because of their markings and their voracious appetites, but what exactly are they? Tiger trout are the result of a cross or hybridization between the brook and the brown trout. Although this hybrid can be produced easily in a hatchery, it is extremely rare (though not unheard of) in the wild. Tiger trout have been stocked across the U.S. in the tens of thousands and provide an exciting alternative to normal fare. They are know for their aggressive feeding habits and stronger than average fighting ability. Also, because of their previously mentioned appetite, they can be used to control invasive species such as the Utah Chub. Adding to the benefit of stocking Tiger Trout is the fact that they are sterile. This allows them to skip the spawning stage and grow into their 4th and 5th year. The Tiger trout has a greenish “tint” under water that immediately makes it look unique. Its coloring pattern is almost leopard-like, with swirling stripes that give it the “tiger” name. Wild Tiger trouonly inhabit streams and lakes where Brook trout and Brown trout share habitat. Stocked Tiger trout can be found in any environment that can support Brook trout and will often be added by state fishery managers to attract anglers or provide variety.

Another, and more common, hybrid is the “Splake”. The Splake is a cross between the Brook trout and the Lake trout. Splake were first produced in Canada in the 1870s, but now are common in the Great lakes and northern fisheries. While a Splake may look like a Brook trout, it is usually much larger and has a slight fork in the tail. The advantages of establishing a Splake fishery make them very attractive for anglers and for fishery management. Splake grow at a faster rate than stocked Brook trout and live longer than stocked trout. Also, they feed on other fish that out-compete with Brook trout such as yellow and white perch. This makes them a good control element to introduce to marginal fisheries. Splake survived to older ages than stocked brook trout.

A third species, gaining popularity in the mid-Atlantic region, is the Golden Rainbow trout. These were originally bred in Petersburg, West Virginia back in 1954 and Petersburg now calls itself the Golden Rainbow trout capital of the world. Golden Rainbows are, for all intents and purposes, Rainbow trout and will usually be included in a Rainbow stocking for variety. Trophy GoldenÂ’s make for great mountings and conversation pieces.

So, if you ever find yourself holding one of these prizes you wonÂ’t have to wonder what youÂ’ve landed. The rare Tiger is sought after, the Golden Rainbow stands out like a nugget in the stream and the Splake is a sought after ice fishing target. As always, tight lines and leave no trace.

A lower weight rod <5wt. the reel should be nothing special so spend to much on it, its just for holding the line. Wich brings me to the line I have CV2 line from bass pro wich dose its job well. And for the fly all that veirys from river to river and from day to day so do the sizes of the flies. So before you hit the river check out wich flies and flie sizes are working for that time, don't forget to buy extras incase you lose the one thats working. As far as leaders and tippet, the size of trout you said you fish for are small so it should be ok to use a 7x tippet, but if you get a fisty one that wants to run with it let him or the line will break.
If you really want to improve your game learn to nymph if you haven't already, the last time I went fly fishing I caught 9 rainbows on nymph and 1 on a woolyburger so nymphing helped me there.

Scud Fly
What exactly is a scud?

Hi, in fly fishing, there is a fly called a 'scud'. there are lots of different ones, actually. i see them everywhere (in the stores I mean), but what do they immitate in the water? is there a thing called a scud in the water? are there spin fishing lures that imitate them...? do they catch fish? when would you use one????

they imitate fresh water shrimp, the real thing is hard to see but they are around, you'll usually find them in shallow water with little to no current and next to cover (weeds, reeds ect) in still water they will be suspended in the water in rivers they tend to be in the cover and toward the bottom. really more of a lake bug but they are in rivers too. scuds can actually pass for several other things if the fish aren't being to selective (uncased caddis, dobson fly).

I've used them when I've run out of caddis nymphs, usually clipped the legs off though. I use them is slow runs, usually suspended below an indicator next to weed beds, they'd be good for lakes and ponds but I don't really fish them very much, rivers are more my thing. and yes they catch fish as long as that is what the fish are eating and you present them correctly.

The river in southern Missouri is one of the most pristine and beautiful country. Winding through some of the most beautiful hills and valleys of the Ozarks has to offer attractive pastoral is evident. The river flows entirely through the Ozark National Park Scenic waterways, leading to the development of riverbeds limited access and the public good. It is a flow float most popular fish in the country.

And no wonder. COLD RIVER, clear water habitat is perfect for rainbow and brown trout. In fact, the river seems tailor-made for trout fishing. Settlers rushed understood and regular supply began in 1900. Although the habitat looks perfect, the trout have not been able reproduce well. Recently, with the new regulations, rather large population of rainbow trout in wild-born, but must still be provided to meet at the fisherman. Brown trout can not reproduce at all in the river, even if they are heavily dependent. The constant temperature water spring water allows the fish to keep healthy and active all year round, even in the heat of summer.

The river has several powerful Springs State Park in Montauk. When the river leaves Montauk, and enters the Ozark National Scenic Waterways, is under the regulations of the blue ribbon trout for next nine miles from Cedar Grove Bridge. Rules here allow the harvest of trout, and there is a 18 "minimum. Lures and flies only allowed. Approximately 10,000 brown trout are stocked in the area of the Blue Ribbon year, and many rainbows migrate to other parts of the River. "Number 400 trout per mile.

The first mile of Blue Ribbon trout water, Montauk Park As the access to the State VAT in May in the best water in the river ford, for fishermen. This water is too shallow to float, it acts as a sanctuary for fishermen Wade. Several rainbow, brown and some big here. Thousands of move Rainbow Montauk State Park in this area each year and usually relatively easy to catch some fish.

Another popular section of river we Tan VAT Baptist Camp Access. There is also a state-wide fishing Wade, although some boats may be found. There is an almost equal number of rainbow and brown trout in this stretch of river. This race is typical of sea trout with a few wrinkles impressive and pools. Fish tend to be a little more selective here as above. Tippet Delicate and small flies are often necessary.

The Blue Ribbon region extends below the 6.5 miles Camp Bautista. Wading is good access to Baptist Camp, Parker Hollow and Cedar Grove Bridge, but the fishing fleet is more popular. A day is a float of Cedar Grove Baptist Camp. Brown trout dominate and tend to become quite large. There are also some rainbow, which tend to stay in the water faster movement. Browns are in deep pools and rifles.

The area of White Ribbon begins in Cedar Grove, and extends 8 miles downstream. The Missouri Department of Conservation stocks the White Ribbon region every few weeks between March and October. Statewide trout regulations are in force, and no bait restrictions. Cafes are not stored at that location downstream, but many migrate upstream. Consequently, many more big brown river came to this area.

The area of White Ribbon can be divided into two distinct sections. The first section ISS 5 miles from Cedar Welch Spring Grove. The river here is relatively slow and shallow, and can get warm in summer. Temperatures on the site occasionally mid 70s. In general, trout are kept in spring and autumn. Some have more trout from year to year, but most fish are fresh from the incubator.

The situation changes drastically below the mouth of Welch Spring, 3 miles to Akers Ferry. Welch Spring is a major source of cold water and kept this part of the river never reach 70 degrees Celsius. For this reason, fish are stocked during the summer. Much more than trout, and some Real trophies are available here. While Akers Ferry, smallmouth bass begin to predominate, and the river becomes the country's best smallmouth streams below the spring round.

The fishing techniques in this are many and varied. This is a surprisingly good fishing fly dry. Trico is "the name of the great river" hatch. Every morning from mid-June to mid September, traps small tricos massive crash. These are small defects for serious, ranging from # 22 - # 30, and requires some skill to fish properly. Caddis also come during the warmer months, and # 16 - # 20 Elk Hair Caddis do well.

Nymphing can be a more popular method. All nymphs standard works well, even Prince, Hare's Ear, Pheasant Tail, the Copper Johns. The best year bet, however, is an imitation Scud # 16. Scud (shrimp freshwater small) are a source of food than any along the river, 365 days a year. They are the best fish around weeds.

Many other techniques have also fished in the creek. Egg imitation flies were more likely fish that all employers combined. Orange, pink, peach, white, and all are good. To San Juan, and coils of different jobs as well. The river also works well for spin fishermen. 1/16-1/32 oz spinners and spoons to almost any brand or color will always be fish. Models of Oz 1/32-1/128 Marabou work very well in black, brown, green and olive.

Whatever the technique you choose to use the river current flow is a big trout. With many miles of trout water, it will be difficult to find a better functioning in southern Missouri. With its beauty and excellent trout fishing is a stream that supports the interests of all fishermen.

The Ozarks is a magical place and is now one of the main reasons why.

Davdison Manning is an avid outdoorsman spending over 100 days per year pursuing his passion for fishing, many of them in the Ozarks of Missouri and Arkansas. He details many of his favorite spots on his website Family-Outdoors. His other pursuits include many days spent in the field camping and hunting. Davidson loves to share his knowledge of the outdoors in the hope of helping others to find their own connection to the outdoors.

Weight Fly

How do pilots who fly any type of commerial plane make sure the plane is below the maximum gross weight?

Do they even check?

Oh yeah. Pilots do a weight and balance check before each flight. Some are automated, and some use a form with all the weights and a flight envelope. Usually, the maximum takeoff weight is determined by the runway length and temperature that day. Sometimes they have to remove passengers or even fuel to make the proper weight. Hope that helps you a bit.

Jacket Simms
What are the pins that Jim Nantz and Phil Simms are wearing for the Steelers/Chargers Playoff game?

On each of their jackets towards the left they are wearing little pins. They appear to be football helmets, but unsure. Does anyone have more details on what these pins mean/are?

Probably the ones Fox had last week for Alzheimers. They wear them and then are auctioning them off for awareness and trying to find a cure.

Should I choose fly fishing vest or a chest pack to carry my fly fishing gear? This seems to be a common question that gets asked in many fly fishing forums and there are many opinions about this topic.

Both fly fishing vests and fly fishing chest packs have their pros and cons. It appears that everyone has their own specific reasons for choosing one style over the other and also a particular manufacturer.

There are several manufacturers like Simms, Colombia, Fishpond, Stearns and many others that offer good quality fishing vests and chest packs. Below is a list of things to take into consideration when making a decision between a vest and chest pack.

Fly Fishing Vests - Traditional or Mesh Vest?

Traditional vests are fine but can be too warm and uncomfortable to wear in hot weather. When fishing in warmer weather a mesh vest is a better choice because by design its breathable, will keep you cooler and more comfortable.

In the region were I fish, which has four seasons, I prefer a mesh over the traditional fly fishing vests because of its versatility. If you order a mesh vest one size up from the size you would normally wear you will be able to wear an extra layer of clothing underneath, like a wading jacket or rain gear. This will keep you more comfortable when fishing in colder or rainy weather conditions.

Other Basic Features to Consider When Looking For Fly Fishing Vest:

No matter what style fishing vest you decide on, an important feature to consider is does the vest have enough pockets to carry your flies, leaders, tippets, extra reels/spools, tools and other fly fishing tackle. Typically a vest should have at least 15-20 pockets and a variety of small, medium and large size pockets. Any more than that can add confusion in trying to figure out which pocket contains what you are looking for. Also the pockets should be designed so that they can easily be opened and closed with one hand.

Good quality fly fishing vests will also have things like D rings and rod loops are also great features to have. D rings are convenient for attaching a landing net, tools and other accessories, while rod loops will hold your fly rod and keep your hands free for tying line, releasing fish or rowing.

Fly Fishing Chest Packs

There are several different styles of chest packs available on the market today. Some chest packs have a single pouch in the front and there are others that have double pouches in the front.

Another style pack that is popular is the chest/back pack system. Some of these allow you to detach the vest part from the pack so you can use them separately if you choose to. This chest pack is great if you are planning a long day of fly fishing or even a weekend fishing trip. They have plenty of storage for all of your fly fishing gear, extra layers of clothing, water, food, and even a small stove.

Some things I have heard fly fishers complain about is that some fly fishing chest packs stick out too far in front of you and they prevent you from being able to see your feet or rocks when wading. Others like them because they claim that they are easy and more comfortable on their shoulders.

Summary: Consider this just a basic guide of things to consider that will best fit your needs when looking for a new fly fishing vest or fly fishing chest pack.
