    Loved all these videos 6 years ago, after a year of watching these, I just had to get out there and do it, haven’t watched tutorials since. Had I not watched, probably would have just learned everything naturally. I used to think I could only catch fish in the creeks and shallow rivers but I decided to venture out into lakes, deep big rivers and brackish water in the bay and out in the sound and been catching fish everywhere. Turns out, even on a horrible presentation and sloppy cast, if you give it a minute, the fish will forget and take that presented fly as well!!

    When ibgave my kids my fky rods they caught so many fish because they would work the line without even realizing it. it was so fantastic to watch... My daughter was 3 and caught a hige trout, she then drops my rod and runs to get a big rock to to bonk it on the head.... I did a head dive to save my rod! ❤❤❤ She caught a gorgeous rainbow!

    putting upwards or downwards mends jn the line is critical when river fishing.
    it works on still waters if there's high wind.

    I cast upstream sometimes, so that my fly floats ALL the way down the stream past me. Keeping slack in the tippet. The more natural the better.
