Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Looking to trade info/instruction/trips

Hey Pete - my best suggestion would be to just search, search, and search - especially on this forum for local trout tips - but more importantly, swing by the local fly shops in the area and just chat with the staff. I'm no trout expert by any means, but I know enough to get by and catch fish, so I'd be happy to help you out sometime.

I am a longtime tournament bass angler with the glitter boat and garage full of tackle to prove it. Despite the fact that I work in the fishing industry, I feared the fly rod and strategically avoided it for 30+ years. That changed on a recent trip to Montana, where my wife and I floated the Bitterroot for two days and fell in love with the sport.

While I had great mentors in the bass fishing arena, I don't know where to start when it comes to fly fishing. Would love to become reasonably proficient in time to take another trip out west next year and would appreciate any thoughts on the best way to get there, whether that be through casting lessons, a fishing club, etc. Also willing to trade bass fishing trips for trout instruction. In addition to local options, I work for an outfitter on the best bass lake in Mexico and have some flexibility to trade out trips there.
