Patience..... for sure a definite positive attribute in both.

Adapting, reading the table/waters. Every pool/table is a new set of variables. You mention current, temperature, levels..... all important to understand in fishing and of course in poker. Where is that fish laying? What branch/rock is going to snag me? Am I in position to cast/bet? Stealth. All variables that have to be conceived on every pre cast/hand.

Danger, bears, sharks, venomous plants and reptiles.... all come into play every step you take in either endeavor.

[B]Presentation[/B].... Presentation.... Presentation..... the all important presentation. You have made your reads, where do you cast to get the proper drift of the fly so that it will induce a strike? The take, the hookset. The reeling in. Dinner?

Yes, many commonalities in both poker and flyfishing. Ain't life grand?

Every time I step astream or sit at a table, I desire to learn something new. That does happen and that is a great thing. Oftentimes you come home fishless or get Ko'd out of the money. The important aspect is did you learn anything that you can apply next trip/session?

It appears to me you are grasping the variables well.... Good luck and Tight Lines....
