I used to fish for bream a lot when I was younger, but I haven't been in a while. That was fun. Now when I go, it's mostly for bass.

This year im going to be targeting Dolly Varden up in the Skagit Valley area.
These are good fighters, & large fish. Averag weight is around 3 to 4 lbs.
But can get up to 8lbs
They like to be deep in the river where the water is calm. So imust use sink line to get to them.
Should be a good challenge

Dont let the first few times get ya down. I still lose flys that get caught on branches etc.
And the casting isnt all that tough, make sure you have at least 2 rod lengths of float line out on the ground.
What you want to do is " load up " the rod with line as you back cast & go forward. Keep your casting arm strait out casting & over your head on the back cast, that will help you from putting the line on the ground, & it gets your rod loaded so you can cast more line. Once you get that " feel " it gets easyer every time you cast. Ask me anything if you like, & i'll try to help ya out

And your thumb is skinned up.
Speaking of, I need to go fishing. Unfortunately, my weekends are booked for a while. Maybe after I start college, I can sneak away on a free weekend.
