    Ay Dios mío…!!!
    I’ll take days like this over any hatchery blitz on trophy fish. Pure hunt , you are not fishing anymore, you are honoring the game Tim.
    Hope more sport fish quality keeps improving and more guys follow your hunting approach with a fly rod in hand.
    Absolutely awesome 👏👏

      thanks Mag! Trying to spread the gospel. Fly fishing is the ultimate way to target striped bass. I appreciate the kind words... I always love reading your comments. Happy fishing!

      Thanks Jerry! I believe it was my friend Stephen Lobosco who coined the name. Too clever not to make it official =D

      Thanks Scott! I love fishing alone, but it always helps with the content to have a friend nearby. Glad you enjoyed it!

    Do you know if there is a tying vid or info for the Holy Moley?! Great vid 🤘🏼

      That's for a jig head. Couple important differences between the two:
      for the fly, wrap lead wire around the shank. Use a bunch, but leave enough space for lead eyes near the hook's eye. With the hook (vs. jig), you can use a small cylindrical pushing tool to push your hair forward after spinning it. Way better than using your fingers, like I did in my tying video.
      Good luck! Leave any questions in the comments, happy to answer.

    Oh hell yeah. What weight do u recommend for something like that bass?

    • @SouthForkSalt
      @SouthForkSalt  Рік тому

      I’d say at least a 9 weight. You want some backbone so the fight doesn’t last too long. Fight can be very tough at the end with anything less than a 9.

    Great vids Tim. Keep up the great work. Do you use a full float line?

    • @SouthForkSalt
      @SouthForkSalt  2 роки тому

      Yes I do. I'm down to add a sink tip, but I need to be able to mend, so I'm always running a floating line.

    Where can I get that fly ?

    • @SouthForkSalt
      @SouthForkSalt  Рік тому

      I tie them. They take a while to tie, so I haven't sold them. I think I'd have to charge too much to justify it.

    What line are you using?

    • @SouthForkSalt
      @SouthForkSalt  2 роки тому

      weight forward floating - 9 weight. Steve (in the video) loaned me the reel and line. It's likely Cortland line.
