You are moving forward to soon. You have to wait for the line to load your rod before moving forward.

That is an absolutely awesome story!! I cannot wait to get more into bass-fly fishing. I have been putting it off, but think I might have to "pull the trigger" on some new gear soon.

Congratulations man!!

Congrats!

But man, you put me to shame on Fork!

I need to go fish with some boys that know that lake cause you caught more with your fly rod in one day than I have in 4 trips!


Hook sets are still free, right?!?!

That's awesome man. Congrats. I keep saying I'm gonna try fly fishing but have yet to pull the trigger. Fly fishing is somewhat cost prohibitive.

The fly rod and reel I use is $500. Vangaurd 8# & 270 reel with floating line. I used 12 lb berkley big game as a leader, 7 ft, connected str8 to my fly line. No tapered leader needed while throwing big stuff.

But u can get a cheaper rod and reel @ $150 bucks and ur good to go. Flies r cheap if you tie them urself. Cranks baits are $6-15. Flies are $0.50 to make at home. Wind is not your friend while fly fishing. I spooked a couple doz fish when the wind would bash my fly line in the water.
