3 Sets of 3 for the New Year

One of my top fish of 2023…

Happy New Year from Casting Across!

As per usual, I don’t exert myself too much when putting holiday articles together. That said, what you’ll find below is worth a few minutes of your time.

Because it is lists. And everyone on the internet loves lists.

This list of lists includes  a few things that you will enjoy. One is personal. I list my top 3 fish of 2023. Then, I lay out three “resolutions” that you might add to your fly fishing in 2024. Finally, I share the top three articles of the prior year. They’re all pretty good… but #3 is excellent.

So here they are: 3 sets of 3 for the New Year.

Top 3 Fish

  1. The first Letort brown trout on my Ed Shenk Flea.
  2. My son’s giant bass on a late summer evening.
  3. A sub-6″ brookie from a trickle in suburbia.

Top 3 Resolution Recommendations

  1. Purposefully pursue a new species. Even if it is something small and quirky, try your hand at a “fresh” fish.
  2. Read more. Add a fly fishing book each month or quarter.
  3. Take someone fishing. Learn how you teach; then learn to teach better.

Top 3  Articles in 2023

  1. Best of Show, According to You  What was shown off and what impressed at The Fly Fishing Show last year?
  2. Don’t Step Past Bootfoot Waders   Sure, everyone uses stockingfoot waders. But what if…
  3. Ed, a Flea, & Me – part 1 It was a rod I thought I’d never own.
