I've been reading your blog since you were back east. Congrats that you keep at it - it's honest, real fishing stories . I skunk out all the time. I learn a lot more from somebody who honestly craps out than somebody who tells me about the 160 fish they caught! Keep me rolling in vicarious pleasure! Good fotos too!
If you are in Texas - why not go for fly rod bass? I miss bass! I live in East Europe!

Thanks for the comment! I really do the blog as a journal for my own use but am happy that someone finds it interesting enough to follow. I've now experienced 3 very different regions for fly fishing and like aspects of all of them.
I don't think I'll ever be a 160 fish day person. I'm just happy to be outside attempting to fly fish. It's a fun challenge for me.
I definitely plan to go for bass here in Texas. There are some monster bass in lakes in the area. Fishing for White Bass in the hill country is something I want to do soon too. I've read a lot about Carp fishing, but have only tried it once. There is even a guide in Houston that takes people out to the Bayou's in the city (sounds kinda nice, but they are really just big concrete runoff ravines) to fish for large carp. Last time I went, I had to try to stay away from people with nets trying to catch them. Not the best experience I have had.
What do you fish for in Eastern Europe? And where?

I just stumbled on your blog and like it. Bummer about your camera tho -- did it perhaps get wet at some point in the past?
I use a Pentax Optio waterproof camera for all the pictures I post on my Trout Underground blog, and since I've dropped it in the river several times, I think it was a good choice...
