Holiday Fly-Tie

Posted By on December 8, 2008

Come on out for some good cheer and tie-one-on! Texas Flycaster.com is hosting a fly-tying event this Saturday evening at Fuzzy’s Taco Shop in Denton (three blocks east of the square on Industrial). Things kick off around 7:00pm and we’ll stay until we get kicked out or the place closes. Bring your tying stuff or just come hang-out and shoot the bull.
If you have not been to Fuzzy’s yet (the original is in Ft. Worth), you’re in for a treat! Look for us hunched over vises (or a Negro Modelo) at a table in the back.
See you there!

North Texas Fly Fishing Adventures with Joel Hays

Imagine wading through ten inches of clear water,trying to be as quiet as possible. Fifty feet ahead is a pod of large fish "tailing" on the flat. You strip out fly line, make the cast, and pull your fly in front of the lead fish. After agonizing seconds the fish spots the fly, rushes forward for a quick grab, and feels the hook. The silence is broken as the fish accelerates across the flat, quickly exposing backing on your screaming reel. Sounds like a great day on the coast, or even an exotic bonefish flat, right? Actually it's a great description of the usual day my clients have fishing for Carp on the flats of Lake Ray Roberts where many clients are blown away by the water clarity and the actual ability to sight cast along miles of flats. Big spooky fish in shallow water. They fight and tail like Redfish and can sometimes rival Bonefish in nervousness. This is an EXCELLENT WAY to hone your flats fishing skills and test your "eyes" where it's more about stalking the fish than simply stumbling upon them. You will be a better flats angler!
