Everything else is checkers. The Delaware is chess. Mike Bachkosy, a flyfishing treasure, loves to say this! the Delaware River has more secrets hidden in its languid flows than imaginable. Join guide and author Bob Lindquist on a tour of the seasons on the Delaware that reveals some of the subtle secrets that the Delaware offers the dedicated flyrodder. We will explore Spring trout and legendary hatches like the Hendricksons, Caddis, Golden Stones and Drakes. Next up is the shift into summer, dominated by sulfurs. Late Summer sees warmwater action explode and then caddis and olives are the centers of Autumn dry fly attention. Woven throughout the presentation is the history of the system, the character of the river and essential and proven techniques and flies for one of the greatest freshwater fisheries in the lower 48 states. This presentation focuses on illuminating Delaware River flyfishing opportunities with some fundamental skills included.
