I feel that things have changed since Haig-Brown wrote this or maybe it is just me, but I am not as hopeful as I used to be. 2015 has been a poor year for me - rivers have been closed due to high temperatures and low water, lake fishing has not followed the norms and my friends and I are in agreement that the insect hatches are not what they used to be, yet the fish are still there. One river in particular went catch and release many years ago but the bull trout which is treated as an endangered species in USA are now much more common and this has I believe affected the lies and habits of the wild rainbow trout, especially the juvenile trout. We now have to search for trout in different lies and places and not the familiar old spots.

"A recent study in 'Fisheries' magazine reports on various studies of ibuprofen( a popular over the counter inflammatory drug). Seventy to 80 percent of this drug is not used by our bodies and excreted. It has been detected in surface waters as well as in various fish tissues. Fish exposed to ibuprofen in the lab can have abnormal spine and bone growth.

In my book, I do my level best NOT to talk about the exact things they talk about, but it's hard not to , cause so many things overlap. I just really do think there is room for another bluegill book on the market..Don't get me wrong. The Wilson's is an AWESOME book. I just think that if Trout can have thousands of books, then a bluegill should be able to have at least two, specially since it is the MOST sought after fish species (at least freshwater) bar none. Thing is, there's not so many zillions of money in the latest and greatest (expensive) tackle lures, fly patterns etc as there are for other species to make all that money off of. And, I have wanted to write a book all my life, so it was a perfect fit. I was just waiting for a subject (cause all I wish to write is non fiction) that I felt strongly enough about to write a whole book, and that happened to be fly fishing/tying for bluegills (the working title is How to catch 100 Bluegills per day on a Fly Rod). Man, thing that slows me down is that I'm a redneck hillbilly trying to write a book without murdering the king's English too bad LOL. Plus, I get to put great pics of my kids and grandkids fly fishing (and catching bluegills) with me in the book, and that is a great feeling.

[VFB] Re: QFTD
This is absolutely true. Bluegills say, unlike bass who will see something, inhale it and taste it later. Ppl have told Me I don't fish for bluegills cause they are too easy to catch. The tiny butterbeans may be too easy to catch, but for the hubcaps that my book is about, they can be as picky as any fish that swims. They check out EVERY piece of food before taking it. 90% of the hits we get, we don't even realize they hit it cause it happens sooo fast. I am also one who believes that ounce for ounce, pound per pound, the bluegill fights as hard as any fish in the water. The reason is simple. Look at his body shape. ROUND. And when hooked, he don't jump out of the water like a trout or bass, but rather turns his flat, round body at a 90 degree angle to the anglers, making him the fightingest son of a gun in the water.

[VFB] Re: QFTD
It wasn't here, it was up on the Minnesota side of the Boundary Waters 30 years ago. I was flinging a beetle spin in top of lily pads dropping it into open water trying to catch dinner on a camping trip. I thought I had a northern until I got it close to the canoe. It was a little bigger than a dinner plate, 3 lbs 14 ozs according to the spring scale. Biggest I've caught on a fly rod was a pound 12 ozs, but still a lot of fun on a 5 wt.

[VFB] Re: QFTD
Since we have very few Tail Waters in the deep South and therefore few trout, I'd say Bluegills would be the most popular inshore fly rod species. I grew up in Alabama and fished the backwaters of Pickwick and Wilson Lakes. My first fishing was with Heddon fly rod that Dad got me for my 8th birthday. With it, I fished for every Alabama species imaginable, but especially the Bluegill. Tied my own flies with my Herter fly tying kit. There's nothing quite like hooking a 3/4 pound Bull Bluegill on a light weight fly rod. In late Spring when the Mayfly hatch comes, Bluegills by the hundreds will lie in wait under the branches of willows waiting for the fall. I witnessed this first hand many times. The most fun I ever had was my Dad and I catching over 100 Bluegills in a little over an hour. That was before C R, so we took all home and I cleaned them. BTW, the world record 4 pound 12 ounce Bluegill was caught April 9, 1950 in Keytona Lake, just outside of Birmingham, AL. Considering how hard even small Bluegills fight, imagine the battle that monster would put up on a fly rod. If you've never tried Bluegills, you're missing out on some really enjoyable fly rodding.

[VFB] Re: QFTD
Mark: Yeah, It's the first fly fishing/tying book I ever bought and I have read mine probably a dozen times. In my book, I do my level best NOT to talk about the exact things they talk about, but it's hard not to , cause so many things overlap. I just really do think there is room for another bluegill book on the market..Don't get me wrong. The Wilson's is an AWESOME book. I just think that if Trout can have thousands of books, then a bluegill should be able to have at least two, specially since it is the MOST sought after fish species (at least freshwater) bar none. Thing is, there's not so many zillions of money in the latest and greatest (expensive) tackle lures, fly patterns etc as there are for other species to make all that money off of. And, I have wanted to write a book all my life, so it was a perfect fit. I was just waiting for a subject (cause all I wish to write is non fiction) that I felt strongly enough about to write a whole book, and that happened to be fly fishing/tying for bluegills (the working title is How to catch 100 Bluegills per day on a Fly Rod). Man, thing that slows me down is that I'm a redneck hillbilly trying to write a book without murdering the king's English too bad LOL. Plus, I get to put great pics of my kids and grandkids fly fishing (and catching bluegills) with me in the book, and that is a great feeling. Good thing I have a great editor (Mr. Fish) who stays on my A$$. I think he has worn out about three red ink pens making corrections and the book is just over half finished LOLOL. Sorry for writing a book here LOL..

[VFB] Re: QFTD
I used to keep a journal, but I haven't had that kind of time for a while. IT was helpful when I tournament fished, but most of that info I keep in my head now. Sort of. Halfsheimers you know. If you fish long enough, like everything else you do long enough, a lot of that becomes ingrained. One way it would help fly fishing is matching the hatch w/out capturing; if you have enough data from the particular water, or type of water, weather conditions, time of year food sources for that location you'll have enough info to come close. Knowing the terrain is more helpful to me now.
