To all you fly fisherman, with my eyes not as good as once was, how do you see the eye of the fly. I tried for a while, a long while, and started again today. I finally finished and went to use it in the pond. My fish seem to be a bit larger, and very healthy. My first started with a 3lb bass, then a perch, then another bass 1lb. Then maybe 10 more perch, then the king of my pond. I couldn't pull him in using a 5weight rod. He got off without me seeing him. Then another bunch of perch. A good 45 minutes of pure fun.

I don't wear glasses, and I am using a magnifying glass, and still hard. BTW I did go out this morning, I had a few hits, hooked a bass, got off, then caught a 2lb bass. I don't take pictures to throwing them back. Only caught one this morning but didn't bring camera.
