For many of us we begin our fly angling careers in our local rivers, lakes or even the neighborhood pond.
As our skills grow and our horizons broaden, it's not long before we begin thinking about bringing the fly rod along on the next family vacation to Mexico. Soon after we find ourselves perusing a glossy Fly Water Travel catalog and the pull of a dedicated saltwater fishing trip that may pit your fly angling skills against a bonefish, tarpon, permit or redfish becomes irresistible. The thrill of seeing a fish as long as your leg swimming within range and presenting a well-placed fly in front of its nose is mind-bending and addictive. It can also be a bit daunting as the time and financial investment in your first saltwater trip can be substantial. You may find yourself wondering, where should I go? When should I go there? What do I need to purchase, and do I actually have a chance for success given my skills? This is where Fly Water Travel comes in and answering these questions is our bread and butter.
