Q4 Proposal

For the Quarter 4 I want to once again fish. Fishing has become a new hobby of mine. my knowledge of fishing has increased as well as the amount of fish i have been catching.

Tod holding a fish on his fly rod and me catching a fish on a spin cast rod.

A lot has happened since i have began my fishing career. I have progressed from catching 1-2 fish in a day to 10-12. Fishing has become increasingly more fun now that i have the hang of it. I also bought another type of fishing rod. I bought a fly fishing rod over break with Todd Bracket. Fly fishing is different than regular fishing because fly fishing emulates the bugs in the water, as apposed to critters or fish in the water that are represented by spin cast fishing. Fly fishing is more technical than spin cast fishing but the rewards pay off. Fly fishing is also used in different types of water. Fly fishing is usually done in rivers where as spin casting is usually done in ponds or lakes. Fly fishing to me is way more entertaining, you do not just reel in fish like you do with a spin cast rod. when fly fishing you have to tug on the line every once and awhile to emulate the movement of a big either on top of the water or under the water depending on the type of fly you are using.

Another thing about fishing that is unlike any other sport is that when you talk to someone about fishing you always exchange information. You exchange story's and spots to fish. Todd showed me old wayland reservoir on rice road in Wayland. The fishing here is fun and allows you to catch many small fish through the day. We had been fishing for 2 hours and each caught 12 fish. This place i will not forget and i will make sure that i show anyone learning to fish this spot.
