Fluorocarbon fishing line!! Fluorocarbon fishing line!!
I have tryed some of the new berkley vanish Fluorocarbon fishing line the stuff works great it is almost 100 invisible and very low memory..
I only use a section about 12 - 14 inches on a lindey live bait setup ..+with a leech.. The reason i used this line was the water was very clear and seriously i out fished my friend 2:1 on Walleyes that day more bites more action
Try the Berkley vanish when using live bait when still fishing or even trolling a bottom bouncer
You wont be sorry see how much more bites you get compaired to oridinary line..
THE FINEST LINE YOU CANT GET FOR LIVE BAIT APPLICATIONS>>

METAL and all,,, I was surfing the web and i came across a article called ice flys. It was very interesting read about how the dedicated fly fishing anglers in their spare time in the winter months tie up some flys for just ice fishing.... They say if you tried some of those flys you never woudl use bait again!,, Think of all the cash you wpuld save on minnows.... If i see it that article again i will post a link for you all ..

Ok here it goes
I was wondering if anyone know which fly pattern to use for carp?? [/u]any advise would be appreshiated .. Why im asking is right now at my local fishing spot i see what i think is a lot of Carp fins breaking the surface in the current near the shore edge. And wouldnt mind landing into a few of them on the fly rod.
Thanks Sage.

Fly Fishing For Fun by: Sammy Salmon
Fly fishing is very different than fishing with a lure or worm type baits. The fly fisherman uses a artificial fly consisting of bites of feathers, foam, hide, fur, yarn, and other materials to be tried on to a hook that make it appealing to the type of fish you are catching. Every fly fisherman has his own type of flies he like to use some purchase them and then some of us like to tie our own. Fly tying is more of an art with basic training which most people can learn over a short period of time.
Dry fly fishing is the best classic form of fishing. The artificial fly is cast so that it floats on the surface of the water. As the fly passes over the fish it will rise to the surface and strike or take the fly.
With the fly rod you will attempt to stop the fish from spitting out the fly and get it tired enough so you can land it in your net. With fly fishing you will see all the action as you cast the fly and play the fish for a strike. The fly is very visible on the surface to the fish. You will see the fish take the fly on the surface however trout and other fish tend to feed under water so if you see the fish rising to the surface it is time to use a dry fly.
Wet flies will sink under the surface of the water an may be passed in front of the fish there bye causing the fish too strike at the fly,
Nymph fishing is very popular after the flies lay eggs on lakes or in streams and they hatch out as nymphs. As the nymphs make their way to the surface the fish will take them. When they get to the surface they will hatch into a flies.
When nymph fishing the imitation nymphs you us will be weighted to stay below the surface of the water. This will be far more of a challenge for you as the action all take place under the surface of the water and you will not be able to see if a fish is about to strike.
Most fish can be caught on a fly but the most common are trout, salmon, chars, and most game fish. In most areas the trout are the most popular and you will find them feeding mostly on small insects in shallow water. If you live on the coast you find salmon fishing with a fly rod a very rewarding challenge. Hooking a 30 or 40 pound salmon on a fly rod will give you a work out running up and down the beach trying to play the fish out to land it .
The fly fishing sport has gained ever increasing popularity over the years. Most will agree it just not about catching the fish but in the delivery of the fly and the skill and knowledge in the pursuit.
Some fly fisherman regard fly fishing as the holy grail of fishing. It is more relaxing and some say a better past time than golf. The sport of fly fishing see people from all walks of life. Some say it is more environmentally friends than the other type of fishing because it does less harm to the fish then other styles of fishing.
The art of fly fishing will get in to your blood and you will peruse the quite of the streams or the solitude of the ocean beaches to capture you prey. Most anglers will catch and release if they are fly fishing.

Oh geez jigger dont use corn it kills the trout!!
They cant break it down well digest it..
It does work but bad for the trout !! Some states in the USA banned corn..
hope this helps ...
If you want a killer bait for trout try using a chartuese green or pink tear drop or moon drop hook tipped with a few magots "spikes" Or mealy worms..
It will out fish Corn anyday and it wont kill the trout..
