monette arkansas 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.

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... eric

Helena Montana Posts: 112	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.

Lagrangeville, NY 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.

Mountain Home, Ar Posts: 2	Thank you all for the welcome, for those of you who have not fished our waters, you might want to take a look at our Forum once in a while. www.flyfisharkansas.com. We have alot of wonderful Flyfishers here. I have only been flyfishing 4 yrs and just learning to tie, have a great teacher in Davy Wooten as far as my casting, he says that I am a lost cause, LOL Just tryng to learn as much as I can
