 Let’s kick things off with some big news for the fly fishing community: USAngling is buzzing about the upcoming 2025 Youth & Ladies FIPS Mouche Fly Fishing World Championships, which are landing right in Idaho Falls next July. If you haven’t already scoped the Snake River, you’re missing out. Anglers from around the world will be descending to chase trout on these legendary waters, and the US women’s fly fishing team is fired up to host the globe. Picture the banks crowded with folks who can double-haul and tight-loop with the best of them. They’re calling it a celebration of angling skill and global fellowship, and who doesn’t love an excuse to mix line and stories with the best of the best from overseas?

On the regulatory front, New Hampshire fly anglers are pretty heated about a proposed rule shake-up. The state’s Fish and Game Department wants to slash the number of “fly fishing only” trout ponds from 27 down to just 5. That’d open up two dozen classic catch-and-release waters to spinning rods with artificials. Local fly flingers have packed out public meetings, arguing this could trash trophy trout potential and take a bite out of the local gear shops. If you’re one who likes their ponds quiet and full of wary rainbows, now’s the time to pipe up, because this one’s headed for a decision soon.

Meanwhile, in the Eastern Sierra, dry winter spells and low water are making for some slow, technical days, but the die-hards aren’t quitting. According to Golden Trout Guiding Co., the clinics for beginners are filling up fast, and there’s a waitlist already for spring. This summer, there’s another real treat: an epic Golden Trout Excursion, trekking into pure-strain golden country with pack mules and a bunch of fellow addicts. If you haven’t caught a golden on a dry in a backcountry trickle, you haven’t lived. Full disclosure—last year was so good, a handful of folks are coming back for round two.

While all that is going down, Michigan is gearing up for FFI Flyfest 2025 in Grand Rapids this September. Picture a festival vibe but for fishy people: casting clinics, gear demos, presentations on conservation, and of course, a full slate of pointers on how not to look like a complete rookie in front of the pros. Need new tricks? This is where you go to learn them, and the fishing scene around Grand Rapids is worth sticking around a few extra days for.

Some of you gear junkies might be thinking about what’s new in rods and reels. As reported by Angling Trade, big ticket rods aren’t flying off the shelves quite like they were during the pandemic rush, but travel—regional, road-trip, pack-the-dog kind of travel—is still up. Folks who can’t drop cash on a Seychelles trip are piling into pickups and hunting new water close to home. It’s that “small water, big adventure” mentality, and record numbers of Texans showed up in Colorado over the summer to prove it.

That wraps up your fly fishing roundup for this week. If you’re headed out, check those state regs—lots of places have new size and bag limits this year, from bass to walleye and crappie. Thanks for tuning in, folks! Come back next week for more fishy news and locals-only stories. This has been a Quiet Please production, and for more about me or the show, check out Quiet Please Dot A I. Tight lines!
