- New Ed Ward Video is up! In todays "Wise Words From Ed Ward", Ed shows us an effective alternative to the simple pull-back mend, a method that shows the fish the broadside of the fly slowly, giving the fish the fly's maximum profile. This technique works well for both steelhead and trout spey applications. Check it out!

I’d love to spend a day on the water with this guy. Just an encyclopedia of fishing knowledge. I’ve learned countless things from his videos over the years. And it all works!
Thanks for watching!
Stoked to see Ed hook some fish 🤙🏽 Will be putting this in my quiver as well ☀️
I've been doing this mend almost exclusively since I started 2 handing lol. Not because I am good either but because I can't aerial mend and I suck at mending in water.
Love this. I was trying to figure out the "pull back" after hearing about it on a podcast with Jerry and this was a great demonstration Ed!
Thanks!
That was absolutely amazing!! Now that I’m here in the Great Lakes I’m gonna try this mend method on the Midwest coast chrome domes!!
Love watching & listening to this guy :) All American fun with a classic style .... great ambassador for the sport ..!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome!!!! More more more more more please
Excellent camera angle
That was epic. Great tip, I learned a lot from the master sharing his secrets. Much appreciated.
Thanks!
Goran Andersson I know sense 1980 we meet at our home river here in Sweden 🇸🇪
He did invent the underhand cast in late 1950s the day we meet he fish a half Sentificanglers wet cel sink 3 that's how he did it before the Scandinavian lines came. For the one who not know!
Best regards from Sweden 🇸🇪
Thanks for the info!
Nice cast!
Could you guys make a video on how to slow down/speed up your swing?
Finally caught one
Right? We get it done every now and then during tutorials....
@@OPSkagit Bet you've had more success in tutorials than I do on my active fishing swings. Still learnin. And the tutorials are mucho appreciated. Prost.
@@flyfishingguide1991 We hope this mend will be a game changer for you!
What line weight of your Pure Skagit rods do you recommend for pike fishing 6 to 8 inch streamers? Usually I´m using #9 and #10 single hand rods. Thanks guys!
Depending on the length of the rod, the 9wt would take a 300-325grn Commando and the 10wt a 325-350grn.
@@OPSkagit Ah ok. So my SH 9 weight is a 350 grn rod so I have to take the 10wt rod in your line up to be able casting the same streamer I usually fish on my 9 weight (350grn line SA Titan taper line) right?
Which river is this? It is spectacular!
It's Ed's home water. The Skagit.
why cast to 5 or 7 o'clock and then pull back line only to lose distance gained? cast to 3 or 9, where it's not immediately under tension, to give it sink time...w/o loss of distance
It's a setup process prior to getting into the "zone".
