Son needs help with school project

[B Kar Ma]

My son has an assignment in Language Arts class, where he has to read a book and design a crossword puzzle (what happened to the old days where you had to do a book report?). He picked a flyfishing book (The Art of Flyfishing) and now needs to come up with some applicable words and definitions. Any help would be appreciated. For example: waders (waterproof overalls for fishing streams); creel (wicker basket for keeping trout, etc.

Thanks.

Hard Hat= Safety for those fishing with BKarma.
BobbleHead+ needed in case you forgot your hard hat.
Friends= Those that keep fishing with you no matter how many times you hit them in the head.
Ear plugs= your best friend if camping with flee.
We could come up with one heck of an NGTO crossword puzzle http://www.georgia-outdoors.com/ubbngto/smile.gif

B Kar Ma - try this link. They've got everything from Action to X diameter. For some reason, however, they fail to mention Tweed:

If your child is in Private school then you may wish to refer the Orvis dictionary instead. http://www.georgia-outdoors.com/ubbngto/wink.gif http://www.orvis.com/intro.asp?subject=178&cktst=true&bhcp=1
