Another day on the New River

August 21, 2010


Today, I went out on the river again with Dr. Kovacich. He was very impressed with my improvement on regular and long casting. We fished for about 7 hours today (from 9 am to 4pm), and I caught 10 smallmouth bass. We used a different, custom made, fly today and it worked beautifully.
I have found that fishing next to the shore and in calm pools provides the most fish. I have a new-found hate for the wind; it makes fly fishing nearly impossible. If the wind is approximately 15 mph or higher, your back cast is ruined. I used Dr. Kovacich's equipment again today but I plan to buy a new rod soon.
