Posts: 4		 Just wanted to say hello to everyone. This is my first post since finding this web site. I fish the Little Red, White and Spring Rivers here in Arkansas. We have good fishing here but I plan on branching out and fishing some new water someday. Maybe you guys can point me in a direction. Anyway good website and I hope to have alot of friends here.

Posts: 113		Welcome Vandy4,
I'm new to the forum myself and as such I have to say that you've found a treasure of a site. My home waters are the Rush and Kinnikinnick in Wisconsin and I'm always looking to branch out. ...home waters would be an interesting topic...without mentioning...those...

Posts: 115		Sadly there are no big fish streams here in Montana. Please do not believe the pictures, stories, or television shows. They are all a huge conspiracy theory put on by my states tourism board. However, I hear that the huge trout back east are suckers for just about any fly.

Posts: 115		Vandy4 thank you for pointing out another flaw with MT. the horrible flies for sale here. They are as big as terridactyls and scare any send any self-respecting fish swimming for the nearest logjam.

Posts: 119		Welcome,welcome, wherever you hail from. Our fishing is diverse as this great wide, wonderful world, yet we all share a common love of fly fishing. I have never fished in Arkansas myself. In fact outside of the east coast of the continental USA, where I have fished extensively, I've only been out to Yellowstone. Look forward to swapping some good yarns and practical fishing stuff too.
