Practice will atleast get the line in the water. I don't know if it's ever perfect, but fly fishing sure is fun. I like to do all sorts of fishing, but nothing compares to catching them on the fly when they are biting. Good luck this spring. Practice makes perfect, except in fly fishing.

Very nice. I went to Hagerman earlier this year so visit a friend and wow, you' aren't kidding about the trout farms there! Maybe next time I will take my fly rod and see if I can catch a trout or two behind the fences! As for the mountain lakes - been there and done that, but never with a fly. Matter of fact that snow can't melt fast enough up in the high country - I start wanting to hit those mountain lakes about now! John -

(We'll discuss the merits of "hill humpers" vs. Flatlanders later.) Perhaps you should go to Hagerman, and check out the trout farms. All kidding aside,There is no comparison to fly fishing a high mountain lak withoiut waders... Nothing beats having frozen, numb feet while you sweat buckets above the water. Nothing like having frostbite and a sunburn, and Heat exhaustion at the same time.... Dave Barry is Hilarious, even if he is a Flatlander from Florida.

I've had years where fly fishing was a complete bust, and then I've had years where everything went perfect and we landed a bunch of fish. Those times, though, no matter what, keep you coming back for more. You might as well give it a whirl. Who knows what could happen. And I'll ignore the Easterners comment for now:) I completely understand.

It is full of history where the two states were confused with each other. The last page even has a copy of a letter from the White House addressed to Pocatello, Iowa. I didn't think this still happened in real life but here is the proof. I can't think of to many ways the two states are alike, so why do they get confused.
