Planning for the fishing trip of a life time, such as my trip last year to Arctic Lodges, Saskatchewan, visiting new waters on a family visit, or exploring someplace new near home is part of the fun of fishing. It sure is for me, as I find the preparation for the trip is half the fun, both the research where I learn about new fish species, methods to catch them, and a bit about the area I’ll soon be fishing. Good preparation goes a long way toward ensuring your dreams about the trip come to true.
We just activated a new article by Dan Swanson, Colorado Fish Explorer Field Editor, tournament angler, and guide, “Researching New Waters.” Dan provides great insight in how to go about researching and planning for your next fishing adventure. Give it a read. It will help you make your next trip to a new fishing spot everything you hoped for, maybe even a bit more.

About the Author
To say fly fishing is a passion for Dave is an understatement, he lives by the adage, �fly fishing isn�t a matter of life or death, it�s much more important than that.� Simply, if it�s a fish, then Dave�s willing to chase it on a fly. This includes making two or three trips a year out of state to places like Alaska, Canada, East and West Coasts to fly fish for salmon, northern pike and salt water species, such as redfish. The rest of the time Dave spends his time plying Colorado waters with a fly rod for everything the state has to offer such as bass, perch, crappie, bluegill, walleye, catfish, pike and yes even trout with a fly.
