fly fishing shop - whats happening about the scenes

Been a rough little period weather wise, strong NW winds with heavy rain in the mountains plus a good dose from the south too has seen all rivers rise and become dirty. Local fishermen will be heading for the vast array of lakes we have locally, then there's the newly reopened spring creeks which stay clear and fishable most of the time. The wind makes it difficult regardless, so finding a sheltered spot on the leeward shore of a lake helps, but for the spring creeks you need to pick your day as they have little shelter. Heard of a few salmon seen in the Rakaia Gorge! That's good news and apparently some have been caught in the lower river, if that is the case people are keeping quiet about any successes so far... River will be out of action for a while with more rain up the back today, but once it comes right I'd suggest it would be worth a look A pretty Spring Creek Rainbow Xmas is getting closer so a good chance to get stuck into the Xmas shopping, and I know just the

Missing Strikes - Fly Fishing Tips

A recent question: I have noticed that I am missing a few strikes lately. Am i striking to hard???? Or maybe too slow?? And it sometimes goes like that and you can miss strikes for no apparent reason. Sometime the hook just doesn't connect, or doesn't connect with anything very solid and pull free. If you’re using an indicator strike as quickly as possible because it dips when the fish has the fly in it's mouth and any delay gives it time to reject the fly. But an indicator isn't fool proof, for instance if a fish turns and follows the nymph downstream then takes it, the indicator won’t necessarily ‘indicate’ immediately because everything is traveling in the same direction downstream, likewise the nymph can land downstream of the indicator so in effect there’s slack in the tippet between nymph and indicator so there’s a delay before the indicator ‘indicates’ as the slack is taken up. In both situations it gives the fish time to reject the fly.... At other times
