New Zealand is the El Dorado of fly-fishing destinations in the world and the Nevis River is the pinnacle, according to a fly-fishing guide. The tribunal is considering an amendment - a Water Conservation Order which would prohibit damming on the Nevis River or diverting the flow. He had been a recreational angler for about 50 years, worked for the New Zealand Wildlife Service and Department of Conservation for 20 years, and as a fishing guide for 14 years. Queensland scientist Tobias Bickel completed a survey on brown trout migration in the Nevis in 2007 and said the fishery was largely isolated and self-contained.

After my pitch for the up-coming Alouette Lake Fishing Derby last week, I started beating the bushes in an effort to roust a fly fishing contingent. You do not need to use a fly rod and fly line to fly fish. Technically, a person fishing a fly with anything from a hand line, to a cable and winch is fly fishing. While deepwater fly fishing is commonly done with a fly rod and a Type 4 to 6 fast sinking, deep water fly line; trolling using a down rigger, spinning rod and monofilament line is also effective. Another option for deep water fly presentation (getting the fly down to the fish), is to use a spinning rod, single action trolling reel, and a lead core dacron main line. read more

A fantastical scene of green, yellow, pink and blue kites dancing in the air opens as Michael Banks finally gets his chance to fly a huge, red kite. Even the young actors who play Michael needed a little bit of kite-flying assistance behind the scenes, said Jimmie Lee Smith, stage manager of Chicago’s production of the hit Broadway musical. The other four suspended kites are rigged a bit more simply because they don’t have to travel from one side of the stage to another like the larger, red kite, Smith said.

To have any chance at all, he said, we would need to track down Vic Gaspeny, a canny guide who once held the world record for bonefish caught on a fly rod—a 14-pound, 6-ounce specimen taken on the flats off Panhandle Key. These days, he is celebrated in the world of saltwater sport fishing for having devised a way to catch broadbill swordfish during daylight hours (something anglers for decades thought was impossible). Gaspeny runs his guide business from Bud n’ Mary’s Marina in Islamorada, a two-hour drive from Miami. Bud n’ Mary Stapleton, who started the boat rental business in 1944, are long gone (their ashes are scattered in the boat basin), but the dock that carries their name remains a kind of Lourdes for fishermen. When the great Ted Williams , who could fish as well as he could hit a baseball, became an enthusiastic client of Albright’s, it put Bud n’ Mary’s on the map. read more

Suzanne Judy of Asheville, a non-angler, would normally have paid little attention to the newspaper announcement about an upcoming fishing event. However, a couple of key words in the title quickly caught her attention and stirred some deep emotions for this newcomer to western North Carolina.

I was able to fish in winter because the fish and game commission voted to open Hot Creek and several other streams in the eastern Sierra to year-round catch-and-release fishing in 2007. The fish were there — a survey by the Fish and Game Department last fall found that there were more than 10,000 trout per mile in some sections of Hot Creek, and the average density was more than 8,000 fish per mile. The hot springs also form a fish barrier, part of the reason there are so many fish in Hot Creek. Hot Creek fish have a reputation for being hard to catch — some fly fishers swear that the trout have a Ph. read more

I needed turkey tail feathers for fly-tying, and couldnāt find them amid the other packages of feathers, furs, duck wings, deer tails, yarn, tinsel, thread, hooks and all the rest of the tying materials on display. Jack disappeared for a moment, then returned and set before me a big cardboard box brimming with unpackaged turkey tail feathers. At Brookwood and then for the next dozen years or so as manager of the fishing department at Goldstockās Sporting Goods on Freemanās Bridge Road, Jack shared with bewildered newbies and grizzled veterans alike, the wisdom he accumulated in a lifetime of high-level fly-fishing. From his post behind the counter-topped glass cabinet full of fly reels, Jack was the undisputed fly-fishing guru of the Capital Region, chatting with fly addicts about what patterns were taking brown trout on the Delaware River or striped bass along the Massachusetts coast. Last Saturday, just days after stepping down to part-time status at Goldstockās to make more time for teaching and playing music, Jack died suddenly at age 57. It was, in fact, Jack who suggested back in 1997 that I start writing a column on fly-fishing for the Gazette. read more
