You would actually be suprised at the quality of people I consult with on many different levels of wisdom and knowledge.Being a Plumber just allows me to do it for free and in luxury.
? Southern Salmon /Steelheads ? seem to only be caught using a henweight pattern... That aside.... down here in the South the Cold water species are not abundant So I come up to the Great White North for my cold water fishing fixes. Most of what I fish for down here is Blue Catfish , Striper Bass , Small mouth and Large mouth bass. The lures for most of the fishing are commercial made baits and live bait for the Blue Cats. The closest I come to fly fishing is spinner with flies for smallmouth bass on the local rivers. Hellgramites are the choice of patterns.
