Fly Fishing

Fly Fishing is one of my passions in life. If I have the opportunity to go fly fishing anywhere, Ill take it. I like both stream and lake fishing. My favorite place of all to go fishing is Lake of the Woods. That is my favorite place to go in general. Besides that, locally my favorite fishing spot is the Scioto river right at 270 to about 1/2 mile north. The depth of the river is great for wading and there are fish to catch. The fish aren't very big, but there are fish - small mouth bass, crappie, and sun fish. I enjoy being there, listening to the water flowing, watching the wildlife, and casting my rod more than catching the fish so the small size of the fish doesn't bother me much.

This picture is looking north. On the left is Dublin road, on the right River Side drive. You can see the bottom of the stream - crystal clear and relatively shallow. Its just perfect.


This picture is looking back south at the same spot. The two bridges are Emerald Parkway (the close, stone-clad bridge) and I-270 (the far, taller one - the outer belt around the city of Columbus).
