      @@nathantidwell3197 Holding a fish by the jaw ("lipping") can damage or deform the jaw, especially if you hold it out horizontally. It's okay to lift it vertically to land it but support it underneath if you want to hold it out flat. Thanks for asking.

    My favorite outfit for fly fishing for bass is my old 8 foot 6 inch Fenwick HMG with an 8 weight bass bug taper fly line, 6 to 8 feet of 20 lb. test leader and my old Pfluger Medalist. This outfit has caught literally hundreds of bass, and I see no reason to change.

  • @gray1738

      @@fairviewhomestead I keep my flies on the smaller side. (Those worm flies being an exception) I stay away from the huge bass bugs and mostly throw the smaller streamers like Woolly Buggers, etc. I feel like the 6 weight is fine but I do sometimes think a 7 would have been the best compromise.

      Put 9 wt. line on your 8 wt. rod ......a 9' ft leader , ( 4' of 50 lb. ) ( 2'ft.40lb.) ( 1'ft. of 25 lb. ) and ( 2' ft. of 15 lb tippet ) .Thats what I use for Smallies or large mouth Bass .....The heavier fly line will shoot out fast and long on your cast ..... and if you double haul even farther casting .

    One handed for bass is fine. Just keep them vertical. I'd rather see a one handed lipper than one held like huge fly fisherman did in the intro. I think he needs to stick to trout. Certainly not as well versed in the bass category. Only on top for bass? Sounds like a high school fishing team member whos dad dont own the boat. Fishing for all species is pretty much the same? Try catching those smallmouths up top in the summer. Try catching those smallmouths anytime with consistency on top.
