Still really anticipating your book on leaders, Brian!!! This was a great video, but your book would be a true treasure to have as a resource!!! Please finish it for those of us who could really use it!!! 🙏

I don't think one can ever get enough of these.

Thank you for this video. So many “experts” out there spreading misinformation. This is very logical and professional. Thank you.

Brian. I’m a Aussie new to fly fishing and I can’t stop watching your videos. Absolutely love them. You are so well spoken and informative and not one bit boring, and I have never skipped forward. Thankyou for everything you have done. Really appreciate it.

I'm a beginner fly fisherman and this video taught me a lot about leaders. Thank you for being one. You're a class act fly fishing teacher.

Excellent instructional vid. I can’t tell you how long I did NOT understand all this. Especially the part about double tippeting.

[chrismiller]

I really hope Brian is paid commensurate with his value. These are among the best fly fishing videos available.

[DouglasJohnston-oy]

Ive learned more from these vids than any other so far. Simple hands on instructions.

[neverhomeguideservice]

I paid a lot of money for some knowledge and you just nailed it for free. Thanks !

[chadvollmer]

I've been fly fishing for the last 3 years and I have watched every single video of Mad River Outfitters you have on it, ,I'm a Trout Fishing guy in small streams along the Simcoe County area here up North Ontario Canada and I have taken all the advise Brian has implemented on fly fishing even telling myself if it looks like food and acts like food the fish are probably gunna eat it, ,,Brian I love all your videos and all the best Advise about Fly Fishing any where, ,,,Here on You Tube, ,Absolutely Hands Down My Biggest Mentor is you, ,,Thank you for teaching me on the best way on how to fish

I noticed the analogy changed to plumbing rather than kids pushing each other up hill. Tell me Brian isnt going PC. Lol. Great video. Your leader/ tippet videos have helped immensely!

[kevinshufran]

I struggled understanding leaders for 30 years, then I watched this video. My fishing improved almost immediately.

As much as I like to support local guys, I owe y’all a purchase from all the info you’ve blessed us with. Can’t wait to call you dudes when I’m ready to buy a new rod.

[bradhome]

Love the whiteboard, makes it so much easier to understand. Great for me as a beginner, and I now know I've been double tippeting a bunch!

[TheLymanDiamond]

Learned more in less than 30 mins than I have the whole time fly fishing. Thank you friend.

[jamescooper]

Leaders and knots are my special interest point in fly fishing. Thanks for doing these videos, I have learned so much from your channel. MRO is the only place from which I get my fly fishing gear.

[jamescgreerjr]

Another great one! Thanks! Next time I'm in town will be sure to drop by the shop!

[ericholloway]

Well done. Keep putting these out in this level of detail. This is important stuff to know to take flyfishing beyond the beginner level. Good decision to keep Euro leaders out of this discussion. I think that is a whole different conversation. I'll have to go back through your videos and find some good formulas for dry and nymph leaders.
