Wading Along

Another step in successful fly fishing is to move either up stream or down stream between casts. It's called "covering the pool." On occasion, one might also move forward of backward from the bank of the river - I had to do this often due to my casts not being long enough to reach the other bank. Obviously, a fisherman is not going to stand in one place for several hours at a time - funny how this little detail was not obvious to me at all until I actually saw how much water I would be fishing in Iceland. So, the waders are called waders because one wades along the river to fish and hopefully experience the joy of a "tight line."
