Fly Fishing a Small Stream
John's travels to fly fishing hot spots would make a air line pilot jealous. He's been all over the west fishing icy water in Colorado, Wyoming, and Idaho. He long ago recognized the allure fly fishing a small stream has on him.|

Take it from John. There are some things to keep in mind when planning your fly fishing trip. Especially if you'll be walking in. Here's a few tips. Pack light. You may end up hiking in to a remote stream. Limit what you take to only what you'll need. But do take what you'll need to be comfortable on the water. |
If you're walking in, how far will you be walking? Remember you'll be standing and walking in the stream too. So carefully weigh how far you want to walk in, since you'll also have to walk out?
In unfamiliar territory? In that case it's a good idea to head out before dark. It's too easy to bet disoriented or lost in the dark.
It wouldn't hurt to take a jacket even though you may not need it when fishing. After the sun goes down the temperatures can get cool pretty quickly.
If you're walking any distance it may be better to pack your waders for the walk in and out. Putting them on when you get to the stream.
It's always smart take matches and a working flashlight with you. You never know when either (or both) may come in handy.
Planning ahead with ideas like these will make any fly fishing a small stream experience that much more enjoyable.
