    So in what order did you apply the colors? Tan base then army green then olive then black, or what? That boat turned out BAD ASS!

    • @Eric.Estrada
      @Eric.Estrada 8 днів тому

      Yes sir. Start with the lightest color and work your way to the darkest. That’s how you crate the depth in the pattern. 🤙🏼

  • @WilliamKiene
    @WilliamKiene 10 днів тому

    You need a shorter fly rod, floating line with a shorter head, shorter front taper, and shorter leader for "bushwhacking." Quarter above the boat and cast to the shoreline to cut them off. When there are this many fish, just keep the fly above the boat and strip smoothly and slowly.

    • @Eric.Estrada
      @Eric.Estrada 10 днів тому

      We were definitely not prepared for this situation. Originally intended to fish the flats, but the wind and storms had other plans, so we had to seek shelter and stumbled upon all these snook. I normally fish a shorter rod regularly for most of my fishing in canals.

  • @michaelkelly1685
    @michaelkelly1685 10 днів тому

    Can you use intermediate line for reds? Or is floating preferred?

    • @Eric.Estrada
      @Eric.Estrada 9 днів тому

      you can, if they're feeding in deeper water. But I personally wouldn't. If I was to have a setup for it I would probably use a sink tip line. But honestly, I've caught thousands of redfish all on floating line, in every scenario possible. I'd say floating line is definitely preferred.

  • @darkregions
    @darkregions 11 днів тому

    I don't think fish can tell the difference between rods... it's all about the bait/lure and angler's technique in fooling the fish to take a bite.

    • @Eric.Estrada
      @Eric.Estrada 9 днів тому

      That is definitely true, but a rod can make a huge difference in being able to present the fly where it needs to be, when it needs to be there in order to fool that fish. a skilled angler can pretty much get it done with any fly rod, but having a good rod can really make it easier and more enjoyable.

  • @stanwright8583

    You can't move a fly too fast for a peacock... If it chases Do Not Stop... move the fly faster, take it away from him.

    • @Eric.Estrada
      @Eric.Estrada 18 днів тому

      That's not true for big fish. I actually fish it a lot slower for big fish and get the 5-7lbers to take the fly better with a slow, but rapid jerk. I move the fly slowly, then twitch the rod tip and it jerks the fly past them, then stops. do that a couple times and they'll actually eat it, eliminating a lot of the short strikes and misses.

      Most just 5-10 seconds out of the water. The longest were 20-30 seconds, feels like a long time but they swam off strong. if you see the cuts in the video, we put the fish back in the water with the net to situate the boat.

      @Eric.Estrada Місяць тому

      You can, that is what is called a "homeboy leader". But they aren't as effective. The taper allows the fly to turn over easily, avoids it landing harshly on the water surface. Some times If I am in a frenzy and there are fish everywhere and I break off I might tie one on. Or for peacock bass where it isn't important.
