Buck Bug Magic:
Catch More Atlantic Salmon
Fly-fishing is an exhilarating and challenging activity that requires patience and skill. Time and practice are required to become proficient. As an experienced fly fisherman with helpful tricks and tips, I would like to share some originals that I would like to share to make sure your next Atlantic salmon excursion is a huge success.
Surface fly presentations are used to catch more Atlantic salmon. Throughout my book, attention is given to techniques like recognizing the position of the sun which is crucial; if the sun is downstream your fly is in highlight mode and attractive to Atlantic salmon, if the sun is upstream your fly is in silhouette mode and less attractive to Atlantic salmon. Why? For more information see fishing tips on this website and page 62 in my book. Some of you may already have fly fishing equipment. Here is a list of equipment you may need: single down eye hooks with adequate size barbs, buck bug flies tied with deer hair sufficient to displace water cause the fly to wake the water’s surface, you will need floating and non-floating leaders plus Floating lines. Proper knots are important. So make sure to get the book 'Practical Fishing Knots' by Mark Sosin and Lefty Kreh, The Lyons Press. Trust me, you don’t want to lose a good fish because of poor knots. Always have for example leaders prepared with loops ready for loop to loop connection in different weights such as: 12,8, or even 4 pounds. I bought most of my fly fishing equipment from W.W. Doak (doak.com) located on the Miramichi River near Doaktown, New Brunswick, Canada."
