Whats happened here on UA?
All of a sudden there have been a lot of threads on flyfishing.
Is it becasue the BEEG boat boys have flat batteries?
-

Everbody has moved into Fly mode , come summer and it will die down again .

Ziggy is is a good thing the boys have taken up fly rods, in the past, winter tended to be fighting season on the forum

there is no casting when Czech nymphing - in fact you dont even need a fly line. Apparently the technique was developed when anglers could not buy fly lines in the old eastern block countries, so they innovated and designed this technique

Hmmmmm, much to learn, you still have young paddawan...

This has been a very hot topic before and some pretty nasty things were said . ”Bird Brain “ , “Jou ma se …. “ , Dip sh@t” and and
For the purists Chech nymping is definitely not fly fishing in the traditional sense . But you are still landing a fish on fly !!!
So for the sake of peace , lets let this one go …

Fear not, the force is strong with you, young I-perceive-matter :corrct:

I was wondering when this fight was due.
I fish because I enjoy it and I use any technique that I enjoy and because I get to share a cold one with the boys - the next topic up for discussion is sliding whole mackies and occie legs for barble in the vaal...
Having mingled a little bit with "Fly fisherman" I have noticed that that there are 3 distinct goups
1. Absolute purists - will only fish with custom made rods/nets and only target wild trout. Does not mingle with the lower classes.
2. Somewhat Purist - will target most fish sometimes mingle with the masses.
3. Rabble - Will target any fish in any way he can, carries a supply of windhoek and does not give a rats a$$ about what the others think.
There are exceptions to the rules as well.

I are be a rabble!
As long as I can get a fish on the other end of the line and the fish ate wat ever was on/next to/ close to the hook. I'm happy! The fish could have eaten the fly out of hunger, shock, self defence or anger I do not give a rats furry behind!
Cheers :2m: :beer:

Lichia - thats a cop out response! Sounds like something I would say to my wife so as not to get into trouble (but would get inot trouble anyway!)

If I remember correctly the IGFA states that as long as the line carries the fly and not the other way round it's legit.

Winter on the Vaal is not for WOOSIES.
You blank 3 times out of 4 trips. BUT that 4th trip produces BIG fish ( + 3kg ) on a dry fly. :sreel:
Them there is also the opportunity of casting for LM, As far as I know Gerrit has the record this winter with a 20lb + Largie. :shk
Others have caught Largies in the 10 to 18 lb range on a regular basis.
My turn WILL come, it just takes days and days of effort.
No "easy" fishing for yellows on the Vaal in winter, unless you are Herman Botes. :blush:
( Who is definitely out of my league :-( )
