{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Monthly Newbie Questions Thread — August

Hello:

Thanks for the invite to participate, I'll bite....Solar-lunar tables or sunrise/sunset? 

Sunrise has been good for me recently, but the tables are pointing to the afternoon this week as one of the best times. If you could only do one - sunrise or the afternoon peak according to the tables --  which would you pick for bass/snakeheads?

New to fly fishing? New to TPFR? Or have a question you've been slightly too embarrassed to ask?

This thread is for you.

Ask anything: choosing a first rod, leaders and tippet, knots, flies, casting, reading water, where to fish, what gear you actually need, fish handling, etiquette, or why the hell your leader keeps turning into a bird's nest.

There are no dumb questions here.

If you're one of our more experienced anglers, check in occasionally and help somebody out. We all started somewhere, and one of the best things TPFR can offer is access to anglers who have already made the mistakes you're about to make.

And you don't have to be a newbie to ask a newbie question. Sometimes the supposedly obvious stuff is exactly what we never learned properly.

Drop your questions below. 

Cordially yours,
 
Michael "Misha" Gill
