Fly Fishing - Morgan - 22 May 2012 This is my preferred method of fishing, you don't need much kit for starters, always a bonus and what you do need is light-weight and easy to carry. Any opinions on this over coarse fishing as the ideal method for survival/prep? RE: Fly Fishing - bigpaul - 22 May 2012 cant help much as i have only done sea fishing( off rocks and jetties) in the past, i have a survival fishing kit in my GHB. RE: Fly Fishing - Morgan - 22 May 2012 Sea fishing, I have done, but not much of and I have no kit for it, but if you live close to the coast, then it's the only type you really need to consider. RE: Fly Fishing - bigpaul - 22 May 2012 we are inland, too far from the sea for it to be worthwhile, i did all my sea fishing when i lived in Plymouth(we left there in 1999), i still have some rods and reels and floats and bits and pieces but dont go anymore...for the above reason. RE: Fly Fishing - NorthernRaider - 22 May 2012 I used to have a book on Fly Fishing, now who was the author again, oh yes I remember Fly Fishing by J R Hartley RE: Fly Fishing - Morgan - 22 May 2012 Used to work in a specialist fishing and shooting book shop, we had loads of J R Bloody Hartley's book. RE: Fly Fishing - The Local Ned - 22 May 2012 Fly fishing isnt the easiest way to catch fish , in any situation. Using lures , spinners , spoons , tobys etc is far easier and more effective way I think , and I use both methods currently. Best way of catching fish cometh the time - is by netting. RE: Fly Fishing - Lightspeed - 30 September 2013 Tried weighted nymph "fly" fishing for the first time this weekend. It was brilliantly effective. No complicated floats, flies etc., no complex casting. Just a rod and reel, monofilament line and of course a big box of weighted nymphs. I'll be adding the necessary equipment to our preps as soon as cash permits. RE: Fly Fishing - Midnitemo - 30 September 2013 not keen on fish myself but i'll eat anything if i'm hungry but i know my party do so its something i need to consider , BIN and BOL close to our primary rivers on the wirral , both estuaries so sea fishing/saltwater for me when i get round to it. RE: Fly Fishing - Grumpy Grandpa - 1 October 2013 My apologies if this is slightly off the thread on fly fishing but sea fishing has already come into the conversation and there is a question that's been bothering me for a wee while now... I live on the coast of North Ayrshire and seafood would seem an ideal source of food for anyone living here but I have the recurring thought that post an event, there would be a huge increase in the volume of effluent entering coastal waters, with treatment stations being under/unmanned or not maintained. Does anyone know if this would be likely to pose a significantly increased heath risk? |
