I was guilty for years!
I've heard this dozens of times, and this may be the first time with a good explanation of why. Thanks!
Glad it helped, thanks for watching!
so i love to wade fish the Sabine river between texas and louisiana. i have found that a strip hook set on smaller bass (8-11 inches) doesnt work as well. but i found myself lifting the rod tip and strip setting. a combo of 50% of each but man i have had a ton of luck with that. that and my green and black dedeaux poppers. God bless
Yes, the difference is incredible in solid hook ups. To this day I still have to fight it cause I do a LOT of trout fishing. I see guys strip in the salt but go back to trout set on bass. Great tip Alvin!
I still do a trout set every once in a while. 😂
So true when I’m messing around with bluegill and poppers I’ll some times do a trout set and sling those things right out of the water on to the bank probably because of using a 8W rod versus 3wt rod. Totally the opposite of missing a set, more like slinging a tuna. I’m definitely going to try a strip set. It sounds like you will also have a better connection with the strike oh and use a lighter rod when messing around with bluegill. 😁
Loved the tip and the presentation. Love your energy and love of the sport. Great job!
Thanks so much!!
Yeah Alvin, I strip strike all the time. Too slow lifting rod😂
I bet you catch a lot more fish.
Guilty, Been fishing for years and always lift the rod. I know about the strip set, but never used it much. Looks like it's time to practice up. Good video.
Good luck out there!
Thank you, Been wondering about the strip strike, you brought me up to speed.
Good luck!
Thank you for such great advice!
Thanks for watching!
Good shit man. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
New to fly fishing, never heard of this! What a great tip.
Oh, it can be a game changer. Good luck!
Thanks for the tip.
Thanks for watching!
Great advice ! Always glad to get some information from a great guy.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for your insights you just reduced my learning curve 😉
Happy to help!
Great tip Alvin. I also use 2 handed retrieve whenever I can, always in position to strike, and no way to yank the rod up when not holding it. Takes some getting used to but I’ve had good success with it..usually using one of Your flies. Works great for your popper also. Have a great week amigo. 👍👍👌🎣
Great tip!
Great video!
Thank you!
I went after redfish in south Texas last year and my guide said I get one trout set for free! After that I better have the strip set sorted out-- happy to say I landed some nice reds on spawning shrimp patterns. 🤙
I still find myself doing this sometimes but my short bass mojo rod helps me get away with it somewhat
I bet the shorter stiffer rod is an advantage. Never thought about that.
You have to strip strike with many species including carp. It's hard to remember sometimes!
True and true!
Strip striking requires discipline, especially on a big topwater strike.
Yes it does, took me a while.
My strip set is so good I bury barb into every log on the lake.
😂 Yeah it's good for that too!
Rookie question, but how much drag do set set on your fly reel? Or do you do it the same as if you was using a bait caster?
I usually just set it tight enough to not backlash when you give the line a good tug. You can always tighten it up while fighting a fish or just add some tension with the palm of your hand.
Redfish taught me that ;-)
Yep, they will do that.
Would you use the strip strike technique for bonefish? Thanks!
Yes for sure.
Bold of you to assume fish go for my fly
😂 my bad!
Am I the only one who had never heard it called a "strip strike?" I've only ever heard "strip set."
I think both work, but strip set is probably more correct.
What about the Jimmy Houston Hillbilly Yank-It is that ok?
I call it the bass masters world championship hook set. Works sometimes. 😂
I just bought an 8 weight fly rod. Can I use my 5 weight line until I am able to upgrade my fly line.
It's going to be really hard to load the rod, but it won't hurt anything.
@@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing I just bought a floating line in eight weight. The pond is small. The deepest part is ten feet deep. Lots of one to five feet. That’s where the bass seem to be. I figure I can use a weighted fly to go deep. Is my thinking right?
@@roywhl1 Yes you should be good.
@@AlvinDedeauxFlyFishing Thank you
