Default So what’s your number?

How many species have you caught on fly gear is the question. I have been fortunate enough to catch 14

Not sure if Cuttbows and Athabows count as separate fish species from "Rainbow". If so, 10. I started fly fishing about 3 years ago, so I figure that is doing alright.

On my list for this summer is a nice bull and possibly a tiger.
