It’s a #3 Echo Shadow euro rod. It throws a 5 weight scientific anglers Anadro line extremely well. And the 10-10.5 foot length is ideal for lakes. It’s my favorite all-around rod. Great for dry-dropper rigs as well.
The right leader set up makes a HUGE difference. I like to start with a tapered leader and only use the first 2-3’ of the thick end as the butt section of my leader. Then I tie on a tippet ring (or micro-swivel). From that point, I typically attach a 10-15’ piece of level tippet, usually 10-12 lb. On the end of that, I attach another tippet ring or swivel. From that second tippet ring or swivel, I attach two pieces of my lighter tippet, usually 5-8 pound, and then my flies. I have a video of this which I made specifically for pyramid lake, but it’s basically the same setup I use while nymphing any stillwater.
Looks like a ton of fun! Can’t believe how many fish you caught in such a short time
Dude seriously. The craziest part was it was like that every time we hit the reservoir for the entire time we were there.
You are more than a legend
Bro, you’re too nice. We need to do a collab video soon!
Bummed I missed it! I spent hours on that shoreline last year with only a few suckers to show. Love the content! Keep it up!
Missed ya, brother! You know what they say.. a sucker in the hand is worth two in the drink.
11:04 “yeah that’s a nice sucker” is what I live for.
😩💦
Utah ?
SoggySleeves is all that is man!!!
Nice video. What rod are you using?

What size leeches you using? Your an awesome fisher! Nice video.
Pretty big. Bigger than I usually use. They were tied on size 10-8 jig hooks. About 2.5 inches in length from bead to tail.
Kool thanks man!
@@wayneroberts7852 you bet!
How do you set up a nymph if rod for still water? Never really got it correct for nymph if still water

I know you can’t use a tapered leader
I wish I can fish like u. I would go fishing more often. Fishing is so hard. Only caught one with spinner. Not yet with fly fishing. It’s sad
I didn’t know fish would eat flies, nymph, streamer, or dry
