Sometimes Fishing Should Be Simple

McFly Angler Guide 3 days ago

Description

Earlier this week I challenged myself to answer one question:

If I could only fish five panfish fly patterns for the rest of my life... which five would they be?

The truth is, none of us are ever going to limit ourselves to only five flies.

But exercises like this help you figure out what really matters when you're limited.
And when it comes to panfish...

I think it's all about having fun.
Simple flies.
Durable flies.
Quick flies to tie.
And flies that are just plain fun to fish.

Sometimes it's nice to stop overthinking things, grab a fly rod, and just enjoy catching fish.

The full video is now live on my YouTube channel if you'd like to see the five flies that made my box and why they earned their place.
