  • # Spring 2025: What's Buzzing in the Fly Fishing World

    Hey there, fellow fly angler! As the dogwoods bloom and waters warm up across the country, the 2025 fishing season is kicking into high gear. Here's what's making waves in our community right now:

    ## New Gear Hitting the Water

    The 2025 spring lineup has tackle shops buzzing with over 60 new products hitting shelves. Among the standouts, Airlites rods are finally making their U.S. debut thanks to industry veterans Jeff Wagner and Gareth Jones under the Mayfly umbrella[1]. If you've been saving your pennies after tax season, now might be the time to treat yourself to some fresh equipment. The Fly Fisherman's Gear Guide has already awarded their top picks for the year, highlighting the best of what's available[2].

    ## Trout Stocking Season in Full Swing

    Just this past week, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service completed their annual rainbow trout stocking at Fort McCoy, releasing more than 15,000 fish into local waterways. The timing couldn't be better with the fishing season opening on May 3rd. The folks at Genoa National Fish Hatchery even threw in some larger specimens to give anglers a shot at trophy fish. Previous surveys have found stocked rainbows growing to over 20 inches in these waters—definitely something to get excited about![4]

    ## Travel Boom Continues

    If you've been dreaming about destination fishing, you're not alone. The recent Denver Fly Fishing Show revealed that travel is perhaps the hottest trend in fly fishing right now. More anglers than ever are checking off bucket-list locations, with strong interest in nearby destinations like Canada and Mexico, as well as exotic South American adventures. Companies like Untamed Angling are pioneering jungle fishing experiences that rival the great African safaris of yesteryear. And don't think the domestic scene will be any quieter—Montana's prime season is expected to be even busier than usual[5].

    ## Regional Action Heating Up

    Depending on where you're wetting a line, there's action to be had. Appalachian brook trout are active as the redbuds bloom, and the Driftless area through the Upper Peninsula is warming nicely. If carp are your thing, keep an eye out as the big ones move into the shallows along the Snake River Plain. Gulf Coast anglers are finding redfish and speckled trout in the backwaters, with the first migrating tarpon showing up. And if you're lucky enough to be in the Caribbean, you've already had a couple months of prime fishing[1].

    Tight lines and bent rods to you this season!
