Is your fly fishing chest pack loaded down with gear, causing you neck pains, lower back pains, or creating raw spots on your skin where it rubs against it excessively? If it is, you're going to want to start ditching some the of gear, and take your fly fishing chest pack back to the basics. Chances are, you're going to have a much better time on the water, instead of having to deal with rashes, back aches, and neck aches every time you head out.
Pliers / Long Forceps
Your pliers and long forceps are essential when you are fishing, especially while you are fishing on protected or stocked waters. You are going to want to do the least amount of damage to the fish as possible, and using barbless hooks, with a quality set of forceps to remove the hooks is a great way to conserve the fishery.
Extra Leaders & Tippets
On slow days, you may never need to break out a new leader or tippet. However, on those fast moving, heavy hitting days where you can't seem to keep your fly in the water long enough to strip it away from the cover you aimed it at before the fish are taking it, you will need plenty of line and leader. If you leave these at home, you could end up cutting your day short when you run out of leader on the line.
Fly Floatant
Some days fish are only in the mood to take insects off the top of the water. If you leave your fly floatant at home, you are going to have problems keeping the dry flies on top of the waters surface. The flies will end up sinking, being presented to the fish in an unrealistic way. In order to keep them dry, you have to carry a small tube of fly floatant or dessicant.
Lanyard & Accessories
Your landyard is crucial to keeping the little amount of gear that you have carried with you organized. The lanyard helps keep your tools right in front of you, on your chest so that they are within reach when you need them quickly.
Small Fly Box & Extra Flies
When it comes to your fly box, you only need to carry 1 box in order to stay proficient and catch fish in a wide range of situations. If you take the time to learn about what flies are working well in your home waters during that particular time of the year, you do not need more than 1. 1 lightweight box goes a long way towards reducing the weight of your chest pack.

Fishing Bamboo (Paperback) $25.76 Once an angler masters a graphite rod, his interests often move on to the original fly rod, pliant bamboo. Until the mid-twentieth century, nearly all fly rods were bamboo. By the 1970s, fiberglass and graphite changed the world of fly-fishing. But more and more anglers are seeing bamboo rods in retail outlets, and want to give them a try. With this book, John Gierach, one of the nation`s top fly-fishing writers, provides a philosophical guide to the angler who seeks this new "old" method. Gierach discusses how bamboo rods are built, how they differ from graphite rods, and how using one will change a fly fisher`s approach to the sport. Fishing bamboo might be the pinnacle of fly-casting skill, and this book will help take you there.John Geirach is a master fly fisherman who lives in Lyons, Colorado. |
