Thanks for the advice Been freshwater fly fishing on LI and upstate for years Just bought a saltwater fly rod and a reel is on the way See you out there!!!
I notice that using a heavier action fly rod i dont snap the fly at all. If the rod flexes i snap the fly so much. I use a 10 weight for fish from bull reds, all the way down to speckled trout. Im definitely some unit.
@@SergioDiazFishing you are welcome. Nice operators and guides are available here also for FF in the Llanos-Amazon and Magdalena Medio in the center of the country. Crazy fishing on the Pacific Ocean in Bahia Solano. Check UA-cam videos. Regards.
I have tried both switch and spey rods, but for what I do a 9ft fly rod seems to be good enough, but I will try them again this fall when casting from the rocks, and it sounds like it could be a pretty cool video. Thanks!
Yes, you do. Fly lines are about 90 to 100 feet long, a good size fish like a striped bass, bluefish or false albacore can easily take more than that in a run. Backing extends your line and lets you play the fish. In most saltwater reels you can put 200+ yds of 20 - 30lb backing which for most situations is plenty. Good luck!
You gave a good video but i would never ever buy those outfits you show when there are outfits being sold by well known makers and that's what i did saving myself $500. on a super outfit. So yea show us the alternatives out there.
From my conversations, this is about 70% why most anglers will never bother to pick up fly fishing. In the mind, the prospective fly angler angler has to contemplate a couple of mortgage payments, when it is not so.
Always producing quality films. Well done Sergio! Very informative
Thank yo for the kind feedback!

Out of curiosity you ever considered a two handed rod not Spey overhead. Love the videos I’m sure it’s a ton of work but it’s amazing

@@SergioDiazFishing check out Beulah surf 9/10or tnt exocett surf those are the only two rods made for the north east fishery
Hey man I was just wondering if you needed backing for saltwater fly fishing
Yes, you do. Fly lines are about 90 to 100 feet long, a good size fish like a striped bass, bluefish or false albacore can easily take more than that in a run. Backing extends your line and lets you play the fish. In most saltwater reels you can put 200+ yds of 20 - 30lb backing which for most situations is plenty. Good luck!
