Hi all,
My first post this, but must admit to looking in without registering for quite some time I only really started swff about two years ago, and have really surprised myself by how much I have grown to love it. Being a freshwater angler since a boy the cross over to the ocean has been a very big step. I was however, fly fishing for pike long before it became fashionable so was already used to 9 weight lines and rods which has helped me enormously. I am yet to set the world alight with my catches and my progress is slow, but I am a quick learner so I hope to do much better this year. Location is what I struggle with. There are times when I know I have fished well and at the right times, I have simply not been in the right place! Here in Ireland I see that as the biggest problem, I see very few other anglers on my travels and definitely no other saltwater fly fishers (maybe they are all fishing the right places!). So sharing info and tactics is a non starter. In some ways it makes it more enjoyable, but frustratingly slow going for someone who fishes alone. So hence me getting involved on this forum.
Thought I would just introduce myself, looking forward to joining in on the forum in the future
