Fly Fishing is the art of attaching a fake bug to a line and relying on the appropriate manipulation of the rod to deceive the fish into eating a sharp steel hook covered with feathers and fur.

Fished there once, and I wish I had a pair of those pants to.:-"

I need the tin man suit before I would consider fishing there and that might not be enough for me.
