The best advice about PFD's is to wear one. Most states require each person in a boat to have a PFD, which needs to be in good condition, proper size, and readily accessible. A proper fit will be snug, but still allow you some freedom of movement. Tip of the Day: Test your PFD annually and make sure they are in good working order. If not, it's money well spent to get a new one.

A vision for the Tight Lines and Bent Rods show: It's not just a fly fishing show, I will discuss other types of fishing too, and to bring attention to our majestic mountains, valleys, plateaus, rivers, and streams, and about how it's our responsibility to make sure they are properly maintained and available for our future generations. I will also be sharing some practical, helpful, and money-saving ideas relevant to fly fishing, and will be interviewing area specialists. The only expert I know is the fish, and the rest of us are still learning! I'll follow each show with a "Tip of the Day."
