Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Fish Where You Are, Not Where You Ain't

We moved to a retirement community a few years ago. The pond here has some IMMENSE bluegills. And some very small ones.  All of them fight hard. Montana is out now because of the altitude, so the pond is our go-to.

Oh, and we sail model sailboats there too!

One of TPFR's core values is simple:

Fish where you are, not where you ain't.

It's easy to spend our time dreaming about Montana, Patagonia, Alaska, or wherever else we'd rather have a fly in the water.

This thread is about appreciating the fishing life that's actually around us.

Show us what that looks like for you.

A fish from your local creek. Your tying desk. A lunch-break fishing mission. The rod that lives in your truck. Your kid's first bluegill. A beautiful stretch of water. A skunked afternoon that was still worth getting outside for. Or just a story about something fishing-related that made your week better.

It doesn't have to be exotic. It doesn't have to be Instagram-worthy. And it definitely doesn't have to involve a trophy fish.

Show us how you're living the fishing life wherever you happen to be.

Cordially yours,
