Czech-style nymph
fishing techniques aren't new, but they are evolving and migrating
into new areas and new species. Jeremy Kurtz takes on a pair
of the new Cabela's technique-specific fly rods and finds they
hold as much promise in warm water as they do in cold. Not
only are these rods a great new addition to the sport, they're a
great value too!
Dave Votaw
explores the varied ways in which smallmouth bass use the length
of a river. Over the course of a season some fish will move
miles and others only yards!
In this essay, Joe
Cornwall shares his thoughts about the continuing place of

much to say today as it did when it was released. Best of
all, this is a trout fishing video that will help you with more
than trout!
Reed Curry is really

most predators, perceive the world very differently that do we.
What if they can see things we can't?
The Sage Smallmouth,
Scott Warm Water Special and St. Croix Clouser Signature all get

examines these four hot, new fly rods designed to cause trouble
for black bass everywhere!

"There's a phrase in
Hungarian, nincs miert, that means literally "there is no why."
Perhaps it's as futile and foolish, at this late date, to ask "why
fly fishing?" as it is to ask "why jazz?" As Fats Waller
said: "Lady, if you've got to ask, you'll never know."
