Have you ever been told that you HAVE to get a perfect, drag-free drift if you want to catch fish on dry flies? What about the need to keep your rod tip sky-high when you're fighting a fish? Or that you'll catch big fish if you're using big flies?
These may sound like they're rules, but there are actually NO RULES in fly fishing. There are only guidelines, and just a few at that.
On this episode of Untangled, you'll learn about some of the "rules" in fly fishing, and WHY and WHEN you should break them.
You'll also learn about:
- Fishing for fish other than trout on a fly rod
- How sunscreen impacts trout, and what sunscreen you should use
- Some insight about spring creeks and freestone streams
- What to do when fish swallow your flies
