    Normally there is someone who will help you out and the dock has some nice bass boats for rent.

    By the time it gets here we'll have you hooked up. There's a couple of places close that I ususally go before we head to Dale to dust the cobwebs off "Green Teeth and Big Molly"(My F-n-F rods)..LOL!!!!
    I ususally start at the 1st of November when the water temps fall down into the mid 50's. The creek temps go up and down so fast it gives you a few opportunities to catch some fish on the fly while the bigger lakes acclimate.

    That sounds great Billy, consider me ready and waiting. Between now and then like i said i will be getting some equipment. I'm sure one of the reels that i already have that wouldn't use in the winter would be fine.. a 2500 shimao... loaded with 6lb mono? and im looking right now at a 9ft B&M f-n-f rod with the TN handle... or maybe the 8ft with the balnace system in the back... possibly a BPS rod? any suggestions on the rods would be appreciated.

    If you'll do a search on F-n-F on this site or www.floatandfly.com you'll have hours of reading.

    I have 2 bps micro-lites 9ft and like them, but i haven't used any others. By the way they're cheap 30-40 bucks.

    I have never done any float and fly fishing, but it sounds like something I would love. Can you use a fly rod with spinning gear on it? I have two really good fly rods (both 9', 6weight) that I have not used since I moved to Western Ky. over a year ago. I hate to buy new gear, when I could get by, and get some use out of what I have.
