"How To Fish Spring Creeks" - Far Bank Fly Fishing School, Episode 14

This episode of the Far Bank Fly Fishing School series focuses on the utter delight and beauty that fishing a spring creek brings to the angler. For some, a spring creek provides a more technical way of fishing, a tougher prey to try and entice, and provides a great test of angling and casting skills. For others, it is the beautiful canvas that mother nature has painted - a place to slow down and savour the ambience and tranquility that spring creeks provide. Whatever the reason, fly fishing in spring creeks requires new skills, a more cautious approach than regular rivers, and a different approach when it comes to rigging. Before we get into the bones of this episode just remember that you must have the necessary licenses and permission to go fishing, and you shuold know the rules and regulations of the water you are fishing. So, with that out of the way let's slide into this episode and see just how to fly fish a spring creek.

I just started, self taught and on a small spring creek, I've had success and failures but I enjoy it because its forcing me to be more technical and really thinking through the process with it hopefully making me a better angler on the bigger rivers. Thank you for your tips, I will be putting them to use tomorrow and giving them a try.
