So crucial. Negative attitude will kill a day on the water when "things just aren't going right" you need to positive attitude to be able to sit back and reassess.

All the factors you mentioned in your post are spot on when it comes to being a better fly fisherman or woman. I work at improving my fly fishing skills on every outing and with the help of individuals like yourself and other fly fishing buddies online I am making progress. I really enjoyed this post, thanks for sharing<br />Bill Trussellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15351692272817692157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934936932021151476.post-3774039500972667802013-09-09T12:53:49.613-06:002013-09-09T12:53:49.613-06:00Owlie!

Fishers (the new proper way of saying fisherman/woman) like you, me, and a host of the others we know, have the right attitude. Now when I say attitude, all I'm referring to is that when we go on the water we don't think "I'd like to catch a fish today". Our thinking is that "The fish are out there and just waiting for our presentation". Positive attitude catches fish every time.
