Flyfishing Board

[pondpro08]

I see most boards seem to be represented and there is a Jig Tying/Jig Making board. May I propose Multi-species Flyfishing board ?

OK by me.

I have caught many crappie on a white wet fly at night near lighted docks in Illinois.
Lake Mingo in Kennekuk County Preserve near Henning, Illinois, which is near Danville, Illinois. I'm sure under the same conditions it would work elsewhere.

as I don't believe we really want to get too far into specializing or polarizing our boards. We can't have a seperate board for every single aspect of panfishing, and we certainly don't want to get into the habit of dividing our members into cliques (anymore than already in place).
That being said, and being "my" opinion alone ... if you want to pursue the matter ... then PM the owner, Ed Moes (member name "Slab"), and ask his opinion/permission. Someone would have to be designated as Moderator of that forum. Ed is the only person that can add a forum to the site.

I love fly fishing. But the main reason jig tying got it's own forum is because it was a huge chunk of the main forum. Fly fishing only gets a thread or two a week. I'm sure if it ever becomes a daily thing, or 15-20% of the threads are about fly fishing, you won't have to ask Ed. But until then, the main forum is probably the best place for it. Keep posting about it, and maybe it's popularity will grow.

It doesn't look like there's enough interest to warrant one.

FAOL (www.flyanglersonline.com) is a good resource for anybody who's interested. They have a great warmwater FF board that covers bass, bluegill, crappie, catfish and carp.
