Internet's Fly Fishing Authority
Fly fishing is one of the kinds fishing experience. One of the fishing for sports, fly fishing take an important role. If you’re new to fly fishing, let’s have a look at some suggestions that can be suitable for beginner fly fishing.

So says Charlie Bisharat, inventor of one of the most revolutionary flies in recent memory, the Pole Dancer.
Born of Charlie’s “love for topwater stripers”, the Pole Dancer was designed to imitate the action of conventional lures like the Zara Spook and the Lunker Plunker. As experienced bass and striper anglers know, this zig-zag, ‘walk-the-dog’ action mimics the movement of a wounded baitfish, and is far more enticing to big-shouldered fish than any ordinary in-line retrieve.
The Pole Dancer fly achieves this unique action in large part thanks to its molded foam head, which builds water pressure on one side of the fly when retrieved with sharp stripping motions and causes the fly to veer from left to right and back again.
For the Pole Dancer to achieve this action, everything about the fly must be in balance. To ensure this, the head is held neutral by weight placed toward the back of the shank, and tail materials are kept evenly distributed by a beefy monofilament anti-fouling guard.
Beyond these functional design attributes, the Pole Dancer has a few nice touches that are characteristic of almost any fly that’s successful with predatory fish: big eyes and a red ‘bleeding’ gill slit add a level of realism that help seal the deal.
Though it was first developed for stripers on the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta system, the Pole Dancer fly has done very well in tropical settings, particularly in Baja, for roosterfish and sierra mackerel. Just like Mr. Bisharat’s other pattern, Charlie’s Airhead, the Pole Dancer makes an outstanding go-to topwater fly in any scenario. For optimum fishability, fish the Pole Dancer with Rio’s Outbound line, which is ideal for turning over big saltwater flies.

Having fished the Pole Dancer firsthand on the Delta with Charlie himself, the Leland Team can only guess at all the applications and venues where this fly will prove invaluable. As you might imagine, Leland is thrilled to be one of the first shops to bring the Pole Dancer to market.

Leland’s Keith Westra fished a day back in April with our buddy Matt “Gilligan” Koles. He’s not only a fun guy to fish with, but knows the Truckee like no other. Book a trip with him and you’ll not only be saying “dude” for the rest of the day, you’ll learn how to stick fish on the Truckee.

Pursuing muskies with flies has become a lifestyle for us here in the northwoods, and weve developed a close-knit tribe of fishing brothers as a result. The Musky Chronicles is a very fitting testament to a season of putting it all together and bringing our game to another level, and not only did he make sure that he got it done, but our boy Lee Church did it with style and all while paying homage to the legendary anglers that blazed the trail.
