kemo99 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 What were your key take away items? I'm not going to tye and fish more soft hackles, and on the lake side, I'm going to look into a side scanning depth finder. 1 Quote
DennisS Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I dido Dan & Ken. Going to use more flymphs & experiment with cdc with my soft hackles. and more Boobies lots more & a type 7 sink line. Tight Lines Always Dennis S Quote
Rainbow Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Knowing that even with all their knowledge, Chan and Hafele have slow days, so I plan to change flies, move, go smaller, be more observant on/near the water, etc. Can't wait for spring. Dan, I thought your key takeaway from the seminar was the TOM TOM! J Quote
phlygirl Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I don't even know where to start I learned so much! Thanks to Brian and Rick, along with everyone that helped make the Seminar a success! A couple of key things: SLOW DOWN and OBSERVE. I get tunnel vision if I'm alone on the water at times and both Rick and Brian really hammered home the need to slow things down as well as pay attention to my surroundings; not just because they're beautiful, but because particular observations can give me clues that will help my fishing. Last night I also thought about how grateful I am to everyone that has taken this beginner out fishing. Over and over again this weekend I heard and saw things that the people I've been out with have talked about. Was a pretty good feeling to know I'm in such good hands out there! HUGE thanks to all of you I know it's not easy having to teach and fish at the same time! Quote
Junior Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 You're right, Ken; soft hackles are no good, and you shouldn't bother with them. Particularly anytime we fish together. Quote
SnoWolf Posted January 23, 2013 Posted January 23, 2013 From Brian I learned..... From Rick I learned.... Thx to everyone involved for a great weekend... 1 Quote
