olympus stylus 790sw, there is one with bigger numbrs now i think. instructions to wash are "rinse under the tap" . good to snorkel with too i think

Does anybody know of any stores or peoples putting on beginner classes this time of year? Got some basics down, and caught a couple fish, but still cast like a retard, and get skunked 50:50.

still no luck yet. think i had the setup right, maybe it was a little dirty out tonight, maybe loose vcard this weekend

Thanks everyone, lots of that advice really pulls it all together. I think the problem for me before was mostly setup, making my fly look retarded in the water. Got more appropriate leaders, strike indicator too, and some advice at the store, so hopefully with luck I'll catch at least 1 next time, and put stop my jerk friends from laughing at how many they are catching right beside me on jigs.

I suck so bad, super new to stream flyfishing. Good at spin casting, hundreds on jigs, spoons ect., know where to fish, just can't get my first fish on my flyrod that isnt in a kiddie pond or stocked lake. Does anyone have any idea on how I can get my hook where fish in the bow will bite, how to present it, ect. Do you let flys float, or move them? super confused. Also, I have no idea of any terminology (ie mending??) ect, so any help would help.
