Friday Five: 12/22/2017

Just a few of my favorite ornaments on the tree: a carp, Father Christmas, and a jumping trout.
Did you ever finish that Christmas shopping? Congratulations – we knew you could do it! If you need some last minute gifts, your local fly shop is always a great place to check out (our are TCO State College, Flyfisher’s Paradise, and The Feathered Hook if you’re near Coburn). This week we have some podcasts, two tying videos, and some tips on how to choose nymphs.
Enjoy the selection this week, and have a Merry Christmas and happy holiday season!

It’s starting to get cold. Really cold. But that’s okay, because it’s November. There’s nothing wrong with that at all!
We have a good lineup for you today, ranging from tips on selecting fly line, tying your own leaders, wild edibles, beads on nymphs, and an entertaining video to close it out. Grab your coffee, pull up a chair, and enjoy!
Friday Five: 10/27/2017
It’s hard to believe that we’re on the doorstep to the end of October – and it’s finally starting to consistently feel like fall! Now we just need a few solid days of steady rain to help get some stream levels up. For now though, enjoy this week’s Friday Five.
Friday Five: 10/13/2017
It’s not the first Friday the 13th we’ve had this year, but it’s the first one that I thought about posting a song to accompany it. Who doesn’t like starting with a little Stevie Wonder on a Friday morning?
Get your groove on, then check out this week’s selection of articles (no videos this week!).
