Summary

This week I have been asked to narrow my fly selection to three nymphs, dries, emergers, and streamers with one hand tied behind my back because the guy who wrote the question said I couldn’t use any of the old standbys (and he even specified them, most of which I would have picked). So I dug deep and also asked my fishing buddy and co-worker Bill Reed to come in and discuss his favorites to see how our lists match. Also in the fly box this week are questions about spotting fish in the water, how to keep a trout on the line once you have hooked it, how to spend $1500 wisely after your first year of fly fishing, and fly line color. In addition, we have a couple great letters from listeners offering suggestions on eye safety and fishing the UK chalk streams on a budget.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Orvis Fly Fishing Guide podcast with Tom Rosenbauer,
0:07.0	bringing you tips, tricks and techniques to help you get the most of your time on the water. Here's your host, acclaimed fly fishing
0:15.3	author and lifelong fly fishing enthusiast Tom Rosenberg.
0:19.5	Hi and welcome to the Orvis Fly Fishing Guide Podcast. This
0:26.3	podcast is being recorded on April 3rd 2015 and I just wanted to tell you a little bit about what I'm planning
0:40.2	and doing in the podcast for the foreseeable future.
0:45.0	A lot of people have suggested that I go across country and
0:50.0	podcasts from all the great fishing waters in the United States and Canada and Central America.

1:03.0	But we can do the next best thing,
1:06.0	and we can do podcast across U.S. and Canada
1:11.0	and talk to guides and local experts and talk to them about what their
1:17.8	particular favorite techniques are, what the season is like in their area and so on.
1:22.4	So I think that will be, I think that will be a lot of fun and we'll still probably throw in
1:26.9	some basic technique podcasts here and there, but starting next podcast next week not this one I'm going to do this one on my own
1:38.5	we're going to be interviewing guides from around the country and I'll try to keep them seasonal so we'll be
1:45.0	interviewing a guide when the fishing is really good at his or her
