outta curiousity how many of you use an mp3/ipod when fishing. im kinda 50/50 on this. when nymphing and moving i like to jam out, when dry fly fishing i prefer to hear things in nature. how bout you?

I don't think that I would even want to try it. I love my gadgets and love my fishing, but wouldn't even attempt to blend the 2.

Interesting----many years ago afriend bought me a walkman --figuring I'd use it while fishing. However,as much as I like music I like the sounds of nature and hearing and watching things around me. I think the tunes would get in the way or endup in the river.

I'll be rockin all the way home though--------as Van Zant says-turn it up. TZ

If I can't hear the water I can't feel her mood and flow. It would mess up my whole game...

I talk to myself too much when I fish alone; if I had tunes with me they would be "oldies" and I wouldn't be albe to hear myself talk.........I like the sounds of nature as related by others and I'm also listening for my friend the red-winged blackbird...........worst case my singing along would scare the fish and all wildlife within hearing range......

fish on.....

Slow and deep....... Try some "Floyd" and slow it down. Slipknot/Mushroom Head for streamers :wink: . On the way to your spot or between beats to keep the morale up......totally turn it up!!!!!!!

Rather have the sounds of nature when I fish but it might be a good idea on some of the stretches of the East Branch of the Croton. Would rather listen to the Eagles than the ambulances, car horns and motorcycles roaring up Rt 100.
