    Beads above hook?

    SS I don't own a float setup since it is not a common method of fishing here in NS. My plan is to swing and drift flies but if that is not working i may explore the bead technique......to each their own.

    Beads above hook?

    I see a lot of people using beads which appear to be tied 1-2" above the hook. Why is this versus closer to the hook?.....and does anyone use this setup when fly fishing? I am New to this style of fishing and will be visiting in mid October from NS.

    Fly Tying Photo Thread

    I will settle for anything that will give me a tight line :) I am a C and R fisher so not going to kill anything. Just looking to get some fly fishing therapy while visiting the inlaws.

    Flies to use on East Rivers in Mid October?

    I will be visiting from NS in mid October and will be staying in Oakville. Based on what I have been told there will be some salmon around as well as browns and bows. I am bringing some egg sucking leaches, buggers and nymphs but I also heard egg patterns are productive as well. My question...

    Creek Talk

    Coming from the east coast and fishing the Credit and Bronte last year I witnessed some of the situations being described here and was a bit in shock. You guys have a great fishery already but it could be epic if the salmon were not to be killed just for the roe. Seeing these fish float down...

    Last Year Bronte Creek First Salmon

    Thanks Rybak! I use big foam mice for the Browns in Nova Scotia. Think they would work on the Salmon or Trout in mid October?

    Last Year Bronte Creek First Salmon

    Any Fly recommendations for Chinooks, Browns, COHO, Steelies? Will swinging work or should other techniques like nyphming be used?

    Last Year Bronte Creek First Salmon

    Margaree is a magical place in October fishing for Atlantics in the Fall colours of the Margaree Valley! Blue Charms are great flies for them all year round :) Hooking a 20lbs Atlantic would have been a battle ... Hope you get to come back and try again. Browns are my fish of choice when the...

    Flying Chinnies

    I tried Pier fishing with my fly rod last week while i was around a West trib. They were jumping like crazy and it was amazing to see but none were hooked when I was there. When I see Atlantic Salmon doing this in NS they are trying to get the sea lice off but probably not the case in Lake...

    Atlantic and Pacific Salmon

    The Gapse is a great spot for Atlantics but there is a lot of private water and people pay big money for it. There is some public sections as well but i personally have never fished for them in Quebec.

    Atlantic and Pacific Salmon

    It does have similar features of a Brown but Atlantics in the fall turn this color after they have been in the fresh water for a few weeks. There are several distinct differences between an Atlantic Salmon and a Brown though such as fins, mouth, spots etc. Google will provide the differences in...
