I'm so frustrated. I hate the Bow. I'm relatively new to fly fishing, but I've been out about 20 times in the past couple of months, and I've only caught 2 fish. I've gone out with others on several occasions who are more experienced, and I watch them catch fish, but I don't catch any. I popped into Fishtales this morning and everyone in there was talking about how great the river is, and how you can't NOT catch fish, so I went out to the Deerfoot Extention Bridge for a couple hours. All I did was lose a hook. Not even a nibble. I even used the set-up the guides there told me to use. Nothing. It just really makes me angry how I've spent so much time and money in the attempt to catch a few fish and all I do is lose equipment. Every time I walk into a fly shop I end up dropping around $50 in the hopes that this time it will work. Then it doesn't. Plus the intial set-up and the time away from home etc. So I hear I could shorten the learning curve if I get a guide. Yeah, another $500 to watch him catch fish, and I'll just wind up losing a few more hooks. I know this is a really negative post, especially for a first post, but that's just how I'm feeling right now. Royally Pissed. :$*%&:
