Calvary Outfitters - Tips for April

OK, I'm going to cheat -but just a little. This month all three tips are links. And all three links are to the same fly fishing newsletter. BUT, all three are very timely for April.

1. A Basic Selection of Dry Flies by Lefty Kreh: Great article by one of the true legends of Fly Fishing. Especially useful if you're just building your dry fly box or throwing out the junk like I do every other year.

2. Long Live the Bead Head by David Knapp: An interesting article about the advantages of the beloved bead head fly

3. Observations from the Tailwaters by David Perry: Interesting commentary on fishing the Tennessee tailwaters.

As I mentioned all three of these articles came from the Little River Outfitters Journal. Little River Outfitters is located in Townsend, TN and are helping/hosting Troutfest in May. Great shop with lots of toys.
