Hi, I'm an avid fly fisher and tyer. Been fishing longer than I care to admit. However although I'm old in years I know I still have a lot to learn. Living in Central PA fairly close to Pittsburgh, I still haven't fished the area as much as I'd like, but willing to try new streams and techniques. So any advice will be most welcome.

Hi Barrie, I too am an avid fly fisherman, but a buyer not a tyer. Old,also,but not dead yet. I spend most of time chasing steelhead in Elk creek and the shoreline. Damn fish really spoil you for other types of fish!

I loved fly-fishing when I lived in Montana, which was for 35 yrs. great results but it is a art... Now I live in Falls City, Oregon and getting into surf fishing on the coast which is about 40 miles away, DePoe Bay, lots of whale watching. But I'm new to surf fishing & need all the help I can get, any suggestions, I have the gear just need the how's & where.
