[quote flygoddess]Pack, speaking for myself and people I fish with, being a FLY FISHER, we try to down size. Vest, fanny pack, sling, whatever...we put what we need in there.
We can't imagine walking up and down a river with a stringer. Sure a creel would be an option, but again, down sizing.
I know several spin fishers that feel the same, so not just a FF thing.
I agree- I try and fish naked- [
]---- OK naked as far as excess equipement but , and this is mainly on rivers- we are sometimes our own worst enemy- we need to make the effort to kill every once in awhile- even if you have to fill out the papers to give it to your neighbor ( covered myself there I hope) My whole thought wave is to get as many people as possible to take the time to try to understand the biology/ecology of the waters they fish.
There are so many more people fishing now than in the 60's and more are concentrated on certain waters that every little bit of knowledge helps the over - all picture.
