Hooked on Flies - Fly Fishing Articles

Fly Fishing software.
Real World Fly Fishing from Pishtech.com.

A few months ago I received a request to try out a new piece of software on fly fishing. Of course I quickly agreed as I always enjoy a new challenge.

After a few emails, I received my download site and the necessary codes to unlock the software. It was late that night so I got the software downloaded and installed and unlocked with the key given but then headed off to bed.

Unfortunately, my work got really busy and I totally forgot about my new toy, as I was calling it.

Then about three weeks later I heard my kids (elementary aged) carrying on from the den and went in to see what all the commotion was about. Here they had found this forgotten gem and were playing the game and having a ball. I couldn't believe my eyes. Without saying a word, I sat down behind them and watched as they tried different flies and were actually catching trout. Yes, they did have a few questions about what flies to use but they figured out the casting all by themselves. I was astounded.

Now my interest was piqued and I had to give it a try. After about 30 minutes it was time for the kids to head off to bed and then it was my turn.

I spent about 5 minutes reading the "How to" information and then went to town myself. I remember thinking back to those early "Deer Hunter" days and wondering if anybody would really be able to pull something like that off for fly fishing. Well, I quickly had my answer.

Real World Fly Fishing by Pishtech.com has done it. The guide advice, the sounds of the running water, the fish rising, the variety of realistic streams and lakes, the fly selection, the varieties of trout, etc. It is so fun. But don't make the mistake of thinking it's just a game. No way. This is also a fun educational tool for beginners and novices alike. I'd recommend this software to fly fishermen of all levels.

To try Real World Fly Fishing for yourself, visit the Pishtech.com website and read more about it. The cost is just $39.95 and would also make a great gift idea.
