The Global FlyFisher has recently been updated to a new publishing system, and there may be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.

As well as being an avid angler, he is also an avid reader of salmon angling books and does book reviews for GFF.
As LR himself puts it:
"Hopefully I can suggest some worthy titles to the readers of the GFF".

Mr. Dyer's review of Bodo's book refers to MSW fish on the Kedgwick River. Can you explain what that means, thanks. I fished the Kedgwick a few times and I don't believe we have met, but I would be interested in swapping tales.

My experience as a class 1 guide, is the only fish that will come up for a fly that is hitched are the
earlier fish!. but then again these fish will also take dry fly's.If you want real success, in the earlier
fish, June, July& part of August, is to tie a buck bug of your choice,Carter Bug style, in a meduim
flow of current , holding the rod tip up a little so the fly is half submerged , & not riding up on the
surface .Thi makes a nice " Buldge " in the water.

I have fished alantic salmon for 35 years & use 1/2 hitch all the time,from my experince I tie the 1/2 hitch behind the head & under the throut & add another 1/2 hitch behind the first because playing big fish the first hitch has on rare occassion pop off with a lost off a trophy fish.

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
