Interest in a fly fishing forum section?

[Treeratslayer]

As an avid hunter and avid fly fisher, it pains me rokslide doesn’t have a fishing section. The reality is no one out there is even close to the interaction day to day that rokslide brings. I’m on several fishing forums, but a post may go days, if not weeks or months, without so much as a view.

Anyway, I’d love to see something like that get added here. Maybe I’m barking up the wrong tree, but if a bunch of guys that would rather die than share a hunting spot can make a forum this active, surely we could keep a fishing one going as well.

Alas, I step off my soap box.

PNW Flyfishing is fairly active, but if you're not from the PNW fairly irrelevant as well

I would be interested.
I used to be active on PNW Flyfishing but since moved to Montana.
The Bitterroot River is walking distance from my house...

I think there would be more discussion about whether the black/yellow panther martins catch more fish or if the yeller/orange ones take the cake.

Yeah I’m an eastern boy so the PNW one is pretty well useless to me. I try to get out west to fish as often as I can, but that forum leaves a lot of the country under appreciated.

Clearly it’s black and yellow. Everyone knows that!

I feel it would be a great addition. Anytime I go out west on a hunt, my flyrod comes with me.

I would love a fishing subforum, but I honestly doubt we will get one.

I just got into fly fishing this year as I had some extra days to spend in the mountains after filling my tag earlier than expected, and caught my first rainbow. Similar to @ArcherAdam I plan on taking my fly rod with me every time I go into the mountains from here forward.

In fact I just finished reading a book about fly fishing and plan to read more. A sub-forum on the topic would be grest as I’d love to learn from others on here much the way I have for hunting.

Ive a pile of those. Dont think I have ever caught anything with one though. Seems IIRC they need a faster retrieve than the panthermartins do?

Yessir sure them in creeks and streams Reeling them up current they give some good action, real killer is those baby raps though, caught my biggest and best rainbows and browns on them. Fly fish is fun and all …. But when the fish on the front range have seen 90000 flies, show them a flashy lure and catch them

I will say the handy tackle boxes are all made for them elite fly fisher dudes ....

I absolutely love to fly fish, a long with any kind of fishing. I see no need or attraction to a fly fishing sub forum. Many of us enjoy small game hunting and trapping, see how well that’s doing.

Plus, everyone above has it wrong, blue fox catches way more trout than any of the subpar lures mentioned

 

[MTtrout]

If Rokslide is open to more forums, can we also add: where should I move, what’s the best western state to hunt, I’m visiting the west and really want my kid to catch a fish,…

Isnt bluefox the walmart brand?

 

[MTtrout]

You tell me. I don’t shop there

 

[cnelk]

I can only imagine all the pics of Subarus with fly rod cases on top there would be if there was a fly fishing section

 

[Stache Attack]

Great addition! Better than turkeys that’s forsure, love grasshoppers in July and August and big browns. For spinners black and yellow with silver spoon on cloudy days.
