Thanks Devin, for your information. I just started my Fly Fishing experience one season ago. Last week I caught about 50 Trout in a heavily pressured location in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, over the weekend. Your videos helped me so much! I literally only fished 3 patterns (Lite bright, Walt's, Quilldigone) and a blow Torch variant (no hackle). Sizes were mostly #16-18 and mostly 6x & 7x. I was a spin caster for over 50 years but loving the fly now.

*I bought these and used them at the river where I get snags often they have done a **enjoyable.fishing** recommend great job of not breaking along with some strong line I purchased as well. They are super durable and easy to use.*

Wish there was more visuals showing the rig setup and tag. Just seems like a sponsor the umpqua leader

Great information but the visual aids didn't quite make it. I'm a visual learner. I couldn't really see what you were talking about. If I try to hook the rig up to regular, floating, weight forward line, I'm guessing, my line will all slide down the rod toward me in a sagging heap. So, without buying new fly line, can I do this?

Anyone that understands and can follow the first couple mins of this video doesn’t need this video…

It's odd how nonchalant people are about clipping off their tippet and just let it fall to the ground or water. I see it the same as hunting, "police your brass". On average it takes over 500 years for that material to break down. "Leave no trace" is the best way to treat the great outdoors we all love to fish, hunt, hike in.

Sorry not real impressed with that leader, way to long, to much room between flies. I have gone the opposite direction, useing a 51/2 leader a barrel swivel, 24” to the first fly 12/16” to second fly depending on depth of water 8” of 7 x to split shot. Easy to handle and and cast .
