How to Plan a DIY Fishing Trip, with Joe Bibbo
Update: 2024-08-26
Description
Joe Bibbo [32:10 ] has a great back story and is a wonderful storyteller himself. He's done a lot of DIY fishing, mainly from his home in the East to the Rocky Mountains and has some great advice on where to go for information as you plan your trip. He also has some wonderful advice on what not to do, based on mistakes he's made over the years. I get many questions from listeners about DIY trips so I am sure this podcast will be a popular one.
In the Fly Box this week, I had no phone calls to answer (hint, hint) but some good e-mail questions, including:
- I get conflicting advice on how close I can get to fish when tightline nymphing. Can you give me some guidelines on how close I can approach them?
- Any tricks for seeing small flies in low light?
- I bought some Stimulators and see they have wire wraps on them. Can I fish these as wet flies?
- I struggle to get a bite from river smallmouth bass in July and August and I could consistently catch them in spring. Any suggestions?
- How can I avoid creek chubs in a small weedy stream when I want to target the larger brown trout?
- Would it be a good idea to put a small length of sighter material between my fly line and my leader?
- Any tips for solo fishing from a raft?
- I have been wading with old neoprene waders and Crocs as wading shoes. Do you think I would benefit from modern waders and wading shoes?
- I live in Great Lakes steelhead country but sometimes want to avoid the crowds during the winter and fish for smaller trout in inland streams. Do you have any advice for late fall and winter fishing in these streams?
