I’ll have to make a trip to New York as well I guess!

Thanks for the comment. I have no doubt that I’ll live in Maine for the rest of my days. What I was referring to in this particular post was more the active fly fishing culture out west. In Maine we really lack that core group of young people in fly fishing. I’ve fished all over the state, been to a bunch of Film Tour stops, and the scene here is largely dominated by much older crowds. Most of my friends fish, but the interest just isn’t here like it is out West….the fishing however, is nothing to complain about.

Tight Lines!

I grew up in Maine, moved out to Oregon and fished steelhead for a few years and guided up in AK. With al the nice steelhead and giant rainbows i’ve caught out there I’ve found nothing comes close to maine. In december I moved back to Maine and am happy to live in rangeley. The grass isn’t always greener. Plus, it took me a year and a half for hard winter steelhead fishing in oregon to land my first wild steelhead. dont expect to go out there and catch a lot of fish. go to new york!

Darren,

Not a problem at all. Thats exactly what I was thinking, this looks like the perfect outfit for creek fishing, at a price point this is more than reasonable.

Nice to see you poking around the site!

-Ben

When you head west, plan to make a stop in Montana.

Looks like a good pattern. I’ll have to whip some up and try them on some Montana trout when I get back up there.
