River Fly
Inflatable Pontoon Boats Improve the Fly Fishing Experience
For large numbers of people who fly fish, standing in a river or stream wearing waders and hoping to lure some big fish onto the fishing line is the most satisfying way to pass the day. Some rivers, though, are not easily accessible to fly fishermen who would normally wade out into the waters to fish. Rivers can be too deep for wading, or too wide. Consequently, the best spots for wading can become overrun with fly fishermen and overused. Another common problem fly fishermen face is the utter fatigue and discomfort that comes with wearing waders in quickly moving water for hours at a time. The constant rush of cold water around and between legs that are covered in saggy waterproof overalls can be extremely tiring. The solution for all these problems is to get out of the waders and into a boat. On a boat, it is easier to locate quieter, less populated fishing spots that are not easily accessible by wading fly fishermen. The best kind of boat for this purpose is a one-person inflatable pontoon boat.
One-person inflatable pontoon boats offer a variety of advantages over other fishing boats. The first of which is that they are lightweight. If fishing alone is your preference, you'll want a fishing boat that is easy to transport without assistance. The best inflatable pontoon boats even come equipped with an integrated transport wheel, making it a snap to move the boat from your vehicle to the water. The wheel stows away under the boat while you fish. Also, inflatable pontoon boats for one person make much less noise and are easier to control in the water. Finally, inflatable pontoon boats cost much less to own than hard-body boats; if well constructed, they can last for many years, making that initial, smaller investment even more rewarding.
Selecting the highest quality inflatable pontoon boat is vital so that you can count on its long life and your own satisfaction. The most important consideration is the quality of the materials used in the boat's construction. Opt for an inflatable boat that comes with ultra-strong pontoons made with abrasion-resistant PVC bottoms and durable nylon tops. Superior quality materials will be able to endure a variety of abuses. Also, for strength and stability, side pontoons should be supported by a sturdy steel frame.
A variety of features are available with different inflatable pontoon boats, so when deciding which boat to purchase, keep in mind what types of features you would most appreciate having on your fishing expeditions. Some of the available features include multiple storage pockets, removable gear bags, an adjustable anchor system, insulated drink holders, rod holders, multiple oar lock positions, a removable stripping basket, fly patches, and reel pockets. Keep comfort in mind, too; consider an inflatable pontoon boat with an adjustable padded seat and adjustable foot rests, especially if you plan to be out on the water for longer than a couple of hours. Also, if you think you might eventually add a motor to your inflatable pontoon boat, you may wish to choose one that comes with a motor mount.
Weight capacity and river rating are two final and vitally important characteristics that should be considered as you search for just the right inflatable pontoon boat. How much weight can the boat handle? The higher the weight capacity of an inflatable boat, the better. Consider your own weight, plus the weight of all of your equipment. For the highest level of performance and handling, you'll want an inflatable pontoon boat that can handle more weight than you would ever load it with. Also, before you purchase an inflatable pontoon boat, check its river rating and make sure that the rivers you plan to fish are not rated higher for whitewater. Most inflatable pontoon boats are appropriate only for Class I or Class II rivers.
Fly fishing in a one-person inflatable pontoon boat can take the most enthusiastic fly fisherman to pristine spots that are difficult for the wading fisherman to access. A boat also makes it possible for those who love to fish to enjoy many comfortable hours of fishing, which is not particularly easy while wearing waders. By choosing carefully and remembering the important tips discussed in this article, you will be sure to find the one-person inflatable pontoon boat that most appropriately meets your needs and that will bring you many years of fishing adventures on your favorite rivers.

Help with fly fishing the Truckee river?
I live on the Reno side of the Truckee and I want to take my daughter fly fishing for the first time this weekend. She is 13 and she has new wadeers and boots so wading is not an issue in slower water. Any suggestions on decent areas I can take her where she would have a decent chance at catching something? I can't take her any of the areas I might normally go because she is brand new and the water flows are kind of fast. Also fly suggestions?
give these guys a call there here in reno http://www.renoflyshop.com/
