I have been fly fishing for about ten years. I taught myself in the Uintahs and have fished there exclusively since I started only getting out a few times a year. Now, I'm a little older and have the ability to get out more and the Uintahs are too far away for a semi regular afternoon visit.
I have only fished small (read: real small) streams and lakes only casting at what I can see swimming by. I have done well with this approach but now want to fish some bigger waters. I just don't know how.
I tried big cottonwood but felt like I was doing something wrong and left ashamed after only 45 minutes.
Tomorrow I'm going to try the Weber and would like some general pointers on the mechanics of fly fishing a river. I appreciate any comments. Thanks in advance.
Sanctified.
