For breathtaking scenery in remote landscapes try trout fishing and fly fishing. Since trout usually live in fast moving cold water streams, lakes, and rivers, fly fishing makes sense. An angler stands in the rippling chilled water for long periods of time with limited movement except for casting due to rapid currents, slippery rocks and the protective gear worn.
      Preventing hypothermia is achieved by waterproof, insulating “waders” and not just for the feet. Typical waders are chest high with over the shoulder straps and quick release design in case you lose your balance. Sporting goods stores carry a variety of waders and offer expert advice for the right choice, the ”rubber pants” are standard and recommended for most wading sport fishing. Of course today all are not constructed of rubber since other waterproof techniques and fabrics are available.
      Defining gear for the art of fly fishing includes rods, reels, lines, flies and casting skill. The size of fish, water conditions, and the type of fishing determine hardware. Lines and rods should match by weight because they are designed for flexibility and speed. Casting techniques should be practiced with the gear to be used. Don't forget the flies, which are a unique art craft of their own.
      Trout love various species of flies and angler artisans create imitations by size, type of trout, season, and dry or wet luring. Materials used are artificial or natural feathers with color and texture concentration. Fly ties are a sport of their own supported by contests and awards. Classic ties are given names like Adams or Grizzly.
