All About Fly Fishing Gone Fishing Conclusion and so, we have come to the end of this journey, but your wonderful foray in the highly enjoyable and addictive world of fly fishing is about to start. May you soon discover what millions around the world are already experiencing… the sheer exhilaration of the sport!

But with farewells, though bittersweet, come some parting words, and this book should not be an exception.

In fly fishing, learning is a mixture of reading, instructions, interactions, and discoveries: By these, we mean reading materials like books, modules, and magazines; instructions from an experienced fly angler; interactions with nature; and best of all – discoveries from actual experiences.

The legendary Jack Hemingway made his debut in fly fishing by means of discovery and imitation of what he always seen from his parents.

Joan Wulff and Simon Bain learned from instructions – Wulff, from her father, and Bain, from paid fly-fishing instructors.

It is good that these days, resources are easily accessible, and information about this great pastime is a click of the button away.

However, I believe that you cannot achieve the kind of “perfection” we have discussed in the previous chapters by just learning. What I mean is, the brain can absorb the needed knowledge to know how fly fishing works technically, but it is the heart that can endure and conquer the difficulties along the way.

The point in fly fishing is that you must have a good proportion of one to one (1:1) – knowledge must always be equal with passion.

On another note, fly fishing is truly a superbly gratifying activity, but we must be responsible enough to make it last a long, long time.

The biggest factor that can contribute to the long existence of fly fishing is a good and healthy environment.

Nature has provided us with a world that gives us sustenance and joyful recreational opportunities. Human beings, by design, should take care of what is provided.

Personally, I practice, and delight in, fly fishing at an exceedingly small stream on our 2-hectare farm.

ALL ABOUT FLY-FISHING

Whenever the tranquil rhythm of the craft penetrates my soul, I begin to feel like I am the center of the universe. That is how liberating and empowering fly fishing can be.

Many would agree with me in this illusion, and this I believe is why many anglers have grown obsessed with fly fishing.

To repay nature for what she has given, many fly fishers, including myself, have adopted the catch-and-release method, that is, once a game fish is caught, the hook should slowly be removed from its mouth, and it should be released back into the water.

Some would think that it is a waste of time, to catch a fish and release it in the end, but for many resolute anglers, it is not just about the catch.

It is about feeling the heartbeat of a fish and realizing that its precious life is in your hands. You could easily end its existence, but you choose to bring it back to its natural habitat to live and reproduce.

Call it melodrama, but many fly fishers the world over observe this practice. It is their way of giving back what fly fishing has blessed them with: natural thrill from nature’s bounties.

And this will ensure that our children and grandchildren will also enjoy this glorious activity that we have come to love so much.

Best Wishes, Coyalita

HAPPY FLY FISHING!
