Fish Behavior (Rio Grande Cutthroat Trout)
The best to increase your success rate while fly fishing is often to simply stop and observe fish behavior, BEFORE making your first cast.
Slow down and note rising, territorial, or holding behaviors of fish, before making your initial presentation, and you may very well put more fish in the net as a result!

Переглядів 256Місяць тому
Practice attaching Tippet to Leader with the Double Surgeon's Loop - one of the most commonly used knots for fly fishing. Remember, always wet your knot before tightening!
How to Tie a Non-Slip Mono Loop
Переглядів 3402 місяці тому
We teach beginner fly anglers how to use the Hemostat Clinch Knot to attach their flies, because we want to reduce as much frustration and barrier to entry as possible for those just learning to fly fish. However, for those who feel ready for the next challenge, we recommend attaching your flies with a Non-Slip Mono Loop, aka "Lefty’s Loop." The Loop Knot is stronger than a Clinch, which means ...
How to Tie a Hemostat Clinch Knot
Переглядів 1,6 тис.2 місяці тому
The Clinch Knot is a classic and versatile fly fishing knot, perfect for beginners, and it can be made even easier with the use of a pair of hemostats! This knot is most commonly used for attaching flies to tippet, but it can also be used for attaching a dropper fly to the hook of an attractor or top water fly. This knot is also good for Tenkara anglers and can be used to connect tippet to a Te...

    Great how to video. And thanks for adding me to yesterday’s seminar. ✌️

    This fly is a killer! And don't feel like you have to stick with those earthy foam colors. I've caught fish with yellow and tan foam, black and purple, and orange and green! ... and with white legs, striped legs and orange legs! Flush cut works best in slow moving and slick water. Keep the hackle untrimmed and gunked up in faster pocket water. Drop 18 - 24 inches of tippet off the bend and add your favorite dropper ... DOUBLE KILLER!

    The last best place in the lower 48. 9:30 - 10:20 is some of the best live action outdoor filming I have seen. Blessings ... John 4:13-1

    Very interesting and educational. Thanks. If you are looking for subjects for your videos I would love to see your opinion for a Hill country Fly Box. What would be your essential flies to have to fish the creeks and rivers of the Texas hill country

    That was a beautifully done presentation. There are places such as this that should have no name, lest they be "loved to death". I enjoy different types of trout fishing. You treated this kind in the manner that it should be treated. Your assessment of the 'Living Magic' of a place is well understood.....by some.

    Can't wait to try this fly. Been looking for an easy popper to tie. Please leave this up on you tube. It's informative and entertaining unlike a lot of fly tying tutorials that are boring this is nice for a change of pace.

      That intro class is the single best thing I've done for fly fishing. It's helped me tremendously. After a few tweaks in just a few minutes, I added several yards to my cast.

    Great vid and visual. I use the snap hooks for bigger nymphs and streamers, leeches etc.. But not ideal for 14 or smaller due to the hook eye size. Will be using this whenever needed. First video that showed it clearly for me. Thanx!

    I was given a furled line. You hardly mention these. Is a furled line not great for a beginner?

    • @livingwatersflyfishing
      @livingwatersflyfishing 2 місяці тому

      Furled lines are often the most comfortable to cast, but the least practical for most of our anglers and situations. Furled lines generally do not sink, making it difficult to reach the depths required for much of our fishing. Additionally they can be easily snagged or cut, requiring more frequent replacement.

    Good info as always. Interesting comments on the Amago and Hane. I came to prefer the Ito over the Amago as well. It seemed just as capable and I like casting the Ito at both lengths and it handled a 12” sunfish I caught just fine. My Hane is the only one of my Tenkara rods I’ve broken and I’ve broken it twice but once was slipping and falling on a slick and muddy bank and another time I broke it against a tree.

    can you use squirle for this fly ?

    • @livingwatersflyfishing
      @livingwatersflyfishing 2 місяці тому

      The possum is a stiffer fiber, which holds the shape of the profile best and gives the proper color, but you could substitute with Pine Squirrel in a pinch. We have plenty of custom dyed Australian Possum available through the fly shop. You can call to order any time!
