This flyfisher recognized me from social media because of my magband from @Lid Rig . We had a nice talk while catching fish. I gave him a magband. It actually came in handy moments later after he caught a trout that had a fly already in its mouth. And this is how you become great fishing buddies. #flyfishing #flyfishdelawhere #troutfly #lidrig #douglasflyfishing #simms #simmsflyfishing #troutfishing #fishingbuddies #tightlines #magband #wetnets
If its raining, use a squirmy wormy. Unless of course you dont want to catch trout. Oh, its called the magband, and its a flyfisher’s best friend on the water. #flyfishing #flyfishdelawhere #lidrig #magband #simms #douglasflyfishing #troutfly #squirmywormy #matchthehatch #worm #troutflyfishingtips #tightlines
Honestly, if you’re catching trout respectively, they shouldn’t die. Lots of delayed harvest creeks being stocked. If you treat the trout with respect, you’ll be able to catch them all season. Try not to use treble hooks if you’re spin fishing. This trout’s mouth was destroyed. If you’re fly fishing, take the time to net the fish. Keep them in the water as much as possible. They can handle being held for some pictures, but take the time to revive them. #flyfishing #flyfishdelawhere #trout #troutflyfishing #palominotrout #goldentrout
If there is one trigger word for a flyfisher, it’s bobber. My youngest son has figured that out and he chirps at me every chance he gets. This was a great jab by him for sure. #flyfishdelawhere #fishing #flyfisher #bobber #simms #simmsflyfishing #troutfishing #lidrig #fishinglife #fishingbuddy #troutflyfishing #orvis #orvisflyfishing #tightlines
I learned raising my tip immediately after the fly starts to sink from troutbitten. I also learned the Dacron backing sighter trick. He is full of insane flyfishing knowledge. I’m using a 10’ 3wt LRS from @Douglas Fly Fishing . The magic fly I’m drifting is a Daniel’s UV euro jig tied by George Daniel and can be bought from @Fulling_Mill. Maybe this tip will come in handy as you head out for trout season this week.

Fishing the rise is one of the best times to fish for trout. Throw on some rain gear and be a foul whether fly fisher, you’ll thank me. #flyfishing #flyfishdelawhere #matchthehatch #simms #simmsflyfishing #douglasflyrods #lidrig #flyfishinglife #douglasflyfishing #squirmywormy #trout #troutfly
Using a fly called a rossenhopper as my indicator (tied by Tom Rosenbauer). You can purchase from @Fulling_Mill. It’s my go to indicator, even in the rain, you just might need a little floatant. #flyfishing #flyfishdelawhere #fullingmill #orvis #orvisflyfishing #lidrig

Replying to @TikTok User its a magnetic wristband that holds your flies. Makes you more effecient on the water. @Lid Rig #flyfishdelawhere #lidrig #flyfishing #flyfishinggear
Everyone has their way of connecting two lines together. Most of the time I do a surgeons knot. But recently I learned this really easy blood knot. The advantage of a blood knot is that it’s a tapered knot on either side, so it slides through the eyelets on the rods better & with less friction. Not to mention it’s a really strong knot. #bloodknot #easyknot #flyfishingknots #flyfishdelawhere
Find a bridge and chances are there is a good hole upstream or downstream to it. Find that hole. Find fish. #flyfishing #flyfish #flyfishdelawhere #bridgefishing #flyfishingtrout #simms #simmsflyfishing #lidrig #douglasflyfishing
From the words of my buddy Brian Gross “That was born and raised right there in WC, and has seen more flies than any other fish in the creek. Honestly, that’s better than some stockie that was bread to eat…” He makes a fair point. Using my fishing shades called catchems from @WaterLandCo to sight fish. I thought they were trout, they were not. Got this fall fish on a Daniel’s UB black jig. Tied by @georgedanieloutside bought via @Fulling_Mill . #flyfishing #lidrig #douglasflyfishing #waterlandco #flyfishdelawhere #fallfish #fullingmill #simms #simmsflyfishing #flyfisher #flyfishingaddict
“Holy jebeavers” sometimes drifting flies isnt the best technique for all holes. Thats why inakways carry a euro combo to do some euro jigging. Dont forget, larger trout, larger prey. Doesnt mean that larger trout wont hit your size 18 midge, they will, but your odds of instinctually getting them to hit something moving are increased during the day. #flyfishing #simms #lidrig #troutflyfishing #flyfishdelawhere #flyfishinglife
If you don’t know Sam, you don’t know flyfishing in Delaware. Sam is one of the legends. So friendly and always catching trout. #flyfishing #rainbowtrout #troutfishing #flyfishdelawhere #simms #simmsflyfishing #lidrig #fishingpicture #flyfishonly #tightlines #wetnets #bradyshandmadenets
You gotta read holes like a book. Think like a trout, and you will teach yourself where the trout are. I’ve read so much about trout behavior and feeding habits. It teaches you how to predict where the trout are. This video will explain my thought process. #flyfishing #flyfishdelawhere #troutfishing #fishinglife #simms #simmsflyfishing #douglasflyrods #lidrig #flyfishingtips #fishingtips #wetnets #tightlines #troutflies #fullingmill #troutonthefly #rainbowtrout #rainbowtroutflyfishing #orvis #orvisflyfishing
Sometimes you gotta convince the fish that what you’re drifting is real.#flyfishing #flyfishdelawhere #fish #flyfishingnation #troutfishing #howtocatchatrout #flyfishingtips #fishinglife #lidrig #wetnets
My buddy and I call this hole the latte bend! If you see a nice frothy layer of foam next to faster flowing water, you better toss a fly in there. Trout use the foam for protection and food. Bugs also get caught in the foam thinking they can land on it, and the trout easily pick them off as they sink through the foam. The only issue is you can’t see under it, so there might be a stump that steals your fly! #flyfishing #flyfishdelawhere #fishing #troutfly #troutflyfishing #simms #simmsflyfishing #lidrig #douglasflyfishing #foamishome #euronymphing #catchandrelease #tightlines #wetnets #fisherman #fisherwoman #troutflies #troutbum #rainbowtrout #rainbowtroutflyfishing #flyfishingonly
