Fish early, and release is too long.
Cheers for this Dan, Il'' l blog site it tomorrow. Thanks for revealing the flies your using.Some genuine meaty looking buggers which is motivating to see.
@h20syotoku Huh?
@charbcbc If you have any concerns I can assist you with, simply drop me a line. You are going to like spey casting.
Ever consider utilizing a sink idea with a compact skagit line? We cast huge weighted flies utilizing 6 and 7 weights utilizing skagit lines out west. The only issue I might see is if the fish are leader shy. I ask due to the fact that I'' m returning to Minnesota and am intending on utilizing my spey rod to go after some fish on the Mississippi above the cities.
@lyceumbrewingco No. I simply utilize a drifting line. I have actually explore sinking lines and sinking leaders. Like the drifting lines much better. Pike are not leader shy. Where in MN are you moving? It would be awsome to have another spey person around.
I have actually not fished that fly however it seems like a great one. The Trevor Morgan Spey line I am utilizing here has a head of 55 feet I think. It'' s a brief stubborn belly line. I like the line a lot. I have a 14' ' 9 wt. Thomas and Thomas I am putting a Trevor Morgan line.
Tight Lines, Dan
Extremely helpful video! I have a 12 feet spey quickly action in 8 weight. What type of products do you advise for my flies?
Synthetics like huge fly fiber, Deer hair, long hackle plumes although pike slice plumes up quite quickly. Anything huge. Little flies like Deer Hair clousers work actually well, and stll get big wheel.
they have drifting scagit heads. we fish them all the time. a scagit with a type 3 sinking leader and you will toss the greatest fly quickly!!!!!!! your fish more than a brief stomach line in this video. imo. thats completely the incorrect line. attempt an airflo scagit compact in the 600 gr area.and listen to that reel chirp in your hand.
