[cool][font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3]We always hear about the positive aspects of fly fishing. There are zillions of How To books, articles, DVDs etc on ways to improve one’s fly fishing skills. I don’t care what one’s skill level is, for everyone should be afforded the opportunity to enjoy their day on the water. Which brings me to the subject of etiquette? [/size][/green][/font] [ul] [li][font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3]Don’t crowd out other fisherman. I try to leave a space of 50 to 100 yards between me and the next person on the water.[/size][/green][/font][/li] [li][font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3]When moving behind someone fishing for a better location move slowly so as not to disturb the water. Kicking submerged rocks creates enough noise to send the fish to a more secure location.[/size][/green][/font][/li] [li][font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3]If float tubing give space to those around you.[/size][/green][/font][/li] [li][font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3]When replacing a leader that has seen better days, be sure to dispose of it properly when returning to shore. I store mine in a plastic sandwich bag in my vest[/size][/green][/font][/li][/ul]
