Can anyone date this box of shells?
Just getting started into this hobby, don't even know how to fly fish yet and don't have a fly rod. But an old friend is going to teach me and let me use his no. 2 fly rod in a couple of weeks on his private bass pond!

How to Dig a Bean Hole // By T. Edward Nickens Digging a bean hole has long been a storied tradition in the North Woods, but there’s no reason it can’t be done at a deer or fish camp anywhere. The combination of woodsmoke and molasses flavors in this bean dish can’t be duplicated any other way. Step 1: Dig a hole that’s twice as deep as and 1 foot in diameter larger than your Dutch oven. Toss a few rocks or a length of chain in the bottom. Fill the hole with hardwood, and burn it down until the hole is three-quarters full of hot coals. Step 2: Precook the beans by slow-boiling them for about 30 minutes. Drain. Step 3: Place salt pork in the Dutch oven, layer onions on top, and pour in beans, molasses, black pepper, and mustard. Slice butter and place on top. Add enough boiling water to cover beans by 1⁄2 to 1 inch. Cover the pot with aluminum foil and then the lid. Step 4: Shovel out about a third of the coals, and put the bean pot in the hole. Replace the coals around the sides of the oven and on top, and fill the rest of the hole with dirt. Cooking time varies, but give it a good 8 hours. Ingredients: 10 cups dried great Northern or yellow-eye beans 1 lb. salt pork, cut into 2-inch strips 2 large onions, diced 21⁄2 cups molasses 2 tsp. black pepper 4 tsp. dry hot mustard 1⁄2 cup butter Illustration by Dan Marsiglio
Use a Reach Cast for Fast-Water Fishing // By Kirk Deeter When there’s fast water between you and a target fish, don’t make a straight cast, because the current will grab your fly line and drag your fly. For a more natural presentation and a cleaner drift, you should make a reach cast—essentially mending your fly line in the air before it falls to the water. Here’s how to do it. Step 1: Measure out as much line as you think you need by false casting away from the target. It is difficult to shoot line and reach at the same time, so your distance should be extra precise. Step 2: As you cast, the line will turn over on the forward stroke (A). As soon as all of the line unfurls in front of you, reach your casting arm in the direction the current is coming from (B). Step 3: Make the reach with the rod tip still pointed at the 2 o’clock position (C). Not stopping the rod, or dropping the rod tip as you reach, defeats the purpose and fouls the presentation. Step 4: In ideal conditions, you want your casting plane to be a couple of feet above the water’s surface, so everything unfurls, the line moves upstream, and the fly falls gently on target.

Reader Tip: An effective way to chum for catfish, trout, and other species is to sling globs of chum with one of those “chuckers” designed to throw tennis balls for dogs. Just load up the cup—I use canned corn or cat food—and heave it. I can get chum out as far as 75 feet this way. —Mark Cerulli, Mashpee, Mass.
