Reed's Sports on Mille Lacs

So I went to the new Reed's Family Outdoor Outfitters store today on Mille Lacs, and since they have everything you would ever need to do anything outdoors, especially fish, I could not resist a parting question regarding fly rods. " Do you have any?" I asked. "Nope." I got em on that one.

I know it's not trout country around here, but it sure is a great and efficient way to catch panfish in any of our area lakes. Bass too. You get right in there w/ the fish and you don't have to keep baiting your hook. Dock, boat, or shore. If you haven't done it, it's a whole new way of fishing and it will really get you thinking.

Fly fishing is really a primitive cave man style of fishing. A stick and a line with an imitation bug on the end. You cast the line rather than the lure or the bait. A real bug works, too.
