I think Pennsylvania is the only state left that still has a flintlock deer season for a week. I would like to do that that one day. Muzzleloading season isn’t what it was intended to be in my opinion anymore, with inline rifles with scopes. I believe at one time to hunt the primitive weapon season in some states your muzzleloader could not be rifled, just smoothbore.

Fly fishing becomes addictive when you stick with it just long enough to experience some success. I also like the simplicity of it. When I go striped bass fishing in Rhode Island, I leave the house with my fly rod and that’s it. If I lose the fly that’s already tied on I come home. I am usually using a fly I tied as well. I think fly fishing is more effective where I go and have out fished guys with spinning gear casting huge plugs.

However, I like ultra-light spinning rods as well for fresh and saltwater. I think the most important thing is just to get out there.

Oh, and I do have a few dozen fly rods, like Parkers it’s addicting…
