I finally got out fly fishing for the first time. I don't have any big catches to report, so if that's what you're looking for, stop now.

I've been wanting to try fly fishing for some time, but finally moved back to my hometown, where my family is located still. I went out with my brother a couple weeks ago. We had no luck the first time--I chalked it up to learning how to cast, that sort of thing. We have since gone to some SW Washington fly-only waters 4 times. I have caught many little guys, but twice had decent sized trout on and once saw what I think was a steelhead jump. We were WAY out in the sticks, but it was a BIG fish and very colorful.

Anyway, I have to say I can't imagine going back to a spinning or baitcasting rod. My future trout fishing will be by fly rod.

I will still go after those steelhead on spinning rod. At least until I figure out how to stalk them on the fly...
