I have the 9ft 5/6wt Scientific Anglers pack and its an excellent rod for me to learn on; very forgiving, yet heavy enough to get things moving.
I’m looking at making the step up from a combo to a better rod specifically for bass in the lower price ranges and I’m looking at the Ross Flystik. Its 6 or 8 weight, mod/fast and 7’11″. I’m not entering any tournaments, but accuracy is a big deal for me, bank fishing and coves from small boats.
Any input? I’m still pretty new to it.
Use glases!!! or do you wanna end up blind!!??
I am fishing for smallmouth right now and if u have any for carp that would be cool
what are u trying to fly fish 4
Alright im interested that’d be awesome cuz right now im clueless on what kind of flies to use
yes, there are a kagillian flies out there, but for something that works on smallies, use clousers (chartrues/white/red eyes are best) and wooly buggers (purple w/bead head are the best, then brown, black, & olive), but all colors will work. white foam spiders are good for surface. i’ll try to make some videos on how to tie some smallmouth bass flies & post them if people are interested.
Thank you that’s what i bought and is there special kinds of flies for small mouth or are fly poppers good?
hey jag,
i like fly fishing more than regular fishing.
1st u dont need to buy an expensive fly rod and all that junk. go online or to wal-mart and buy a scientific angler kit. they’re really good and its just as good as anything out there.
fly fishing kit, 9ft 5/6wt rod and floating fly line, all comes in the kit,its about $75. a must learn to cast. “the new fly fishing basics” best DVD out there. hope this helps you start off jag. dont let people make you think its an expensive sport.
I’m starting fly fishing for the first time this year. Looks like so much fun! Anyone have any tips for me? Could use’em.
somedude down there said it was a clouser
what kind of fly were you using
how do you make a fly rod?
cool, yea i agree that the price of the rod does not make it good. I have not built a rod before, how hard is it to do.
i’m using a 6wt 9ft med-fast st croix fly rod, but i usually use a home made fly rod and catch tons. just goes to show you don’t always need an $800 fly rod. a $40 pacbay blank from ebay is just as good. basically it comes down to the casting and the rewards of catching fish on homemade stuff.
by the way what weight rod were you using?
nice video. I love bass on flies!
awesome fishing looks so relaxing … ur clouser looks like a huge grasshopper or somethin at the end ha. great video
hey thanks strpkers14
