Fly fishing the Big East River Fly fishing the Big East River Photo - Bill Anderson

I was doing something thinking about my limited fly fishing ability...

 

 

“I think the learned fly fisherman (or woman) who can cast well is half magician and half physicist. They can take a length of flexible mono-filament tubing and change it to a fluid state with a simple movement of their arm.

 

As for me, I am part rookie and magician. How my fly gets from behind me to the water’s surface is a magical feat of ‘awkwardness’ and luck.

 

Yet, the physicist could be right around the next river bend…”

 

 

Photo is of my friend Craig pulling off the 'Magician' on the Big East River, Huntsville.
