I've been watching your fly line welding/ making videos I'm new to fly fishing and made mistakes when buying fly lines 🤣 but now the possibilitys are endless...welding shooting sinking heads to double taper floters ect..ect..Great channel thank you all the best 👍😁
Oh man I wish you had this video like a year ago. I bought a loop to loop system for coho fishing in the Pacific NW. Lots of places the river isn't even 40ft across. So lots of close in fishing and common to have coho chase the fly within a foot or two of the shore. It was just a real hassle making short quick casts and stripping flies in close. Making the switch to an integrated system was just sooo much more enjoyable.
Any line with a short, blunt front taper will do the job. We need turnover force to turnover the indicator and the weight. Any nymph (indicator) or bass bug line should do the job.
Thank you so much for this video. I wish I had seen it before I bought all the tips. I recently bought a R8 7wt switch rod for overhead casting from my flats boat. My aging shoulder's were reminding me to much double hauling. So I have gotten an integrated line on a marage 10wt to try. So often here on the Chesapeake bay the fish bite as you take the fly out of the water. With all the eroding shoreline wear people put tires, blocks, piles rocks 50 years ago or more. Now at hightide might be 3 feet underwater. If you get around to doing a overhead casting video from boat on stripes I'm all N
I fish a Loomis NRX+ 8 wt. at the Cape for stripers with a variety of floaters, intermediates and sinkers - all Airflo lines, some of them as old as 18 years. I don't have an particular line for trout as I use whatever works for the situation.
Great information! Rod parallel to the surf is 🤯 so easy, low hanging fruit, will use that!

Awesome info!
Yeah that's correct
What would you suggest for Stillwater fishing with an indicator?

What is your go to full line when fishing a R8 switch 7wt for striped bass up to 32 inches and spec trout around 25 inches?
