- Getting out and filming a fly fishing video is something ive been wanting to do for a while and as im new to fly fishing it was hard to get done. This is my first real day of fly fishing and by no means am i good, but i sure got the hang of it and was able to land a bunch of nice fish. Catching a fish on the fly is insane and very different from what im used to. Its an incredibly cool way to catch fish and i cant wait to do more of it.
Always wanted to give this a shot. Thanks for sharing, tight lines.
Thanks man, if you do try it i wish you luck!
The first two are bluegills and the crappies are all males, not females. Black Crappie males turn very dark during the spawn, and are responsible for making and guarding the nests. The females are lighter, lay their eggs, then go to deeper water.
Good for you to share you're new to fly fishing and you're learning. Enjoyed your video.
That combo rig is great to respool with #8 floating line and wing a hair mouse or largest size sneaky pete to largemouth and smallmouth bass.
Ryan, I agree with your comment about bluegill, sunfish or pumpkin seeds fighting ability! Their fight far exceeds their size!
I’m new to fly fishing as well and love it, I’m hooked and love catching big Gills
the combo looks like a Martin 3pc. 5-6 wt. inexpensive fly combo, one of the most fun ever. 29-39 bucks, 19.99 when it's on sale. comes with line and a leader already on it. crazy fun, there's no drag on the reel; it's all manual, the reel is just to house line. the rod is actually quite good.
if you go for big bass with this combo, try re-spooling with #8 line and put on fingerless gloves.
thanks for this fun angling video.
thannks for all the tips man, it sure is a fun set up
I own 2 of that same combo. I have one set for panfish and one for bass. I suggest to buy a better reel. One with at least drag built in.
Looks like your reel is set up for left hand retrieve. We slay pan fish down in Texas on wooly buggers, all leach patterns, and all ant patterns... Great video!!!
Do you fish the ants dry? I did for trout, but I'll be going after my first bass/sunfish/crappie tomorrow, so just curious. All I have right now is a couple of clouser minnows. Hopefully they'll work. 40 years of fly fishing and I've fished wet maybe 20 times, mostly from my caddis getting too wet rofl
Awesome...the best thing I like about this vid...is your organisatinal skill!!!!
Thanks man i appreciate that
He sounds like Bob from Bob's burgers
If you like the fight on a western fly rod, you should try Tenkara fly fishing. Every bluegill feels like a tournament bass. There's no reel. Just a rod, level line, tippet, and fly. It's crazy fun!
they are bluegill or in the southern U.S. brim.
Logger John.
thanks man!
That first fish where I’m from in Louisiana we call them bream
BTW the male is the fish that sits on the spawn bed and protects the babies. He drives the female away because she wants to eat her young. This is true with bass and crappies and blue gill. Good video!
I have never done any fly fishing but it does look fun.
its alot of fun especially because im just getting into it, if you ever have the oppportunity to try it i reccomend it!
I know this has been awhile since the video was put out or this comment was commented but if you still haven't gotten a fly setup I would suggest going on eBay and getting a maxcatch 3wt for panfish but if you're going for bass or pike I'd get a 8wt so you could throw larger flies. I purchased my 3wt for around 70 dollars and I've caught atleast two hundred fish over the past two summers. Anything from bluegill crappie perch to smallmouth largies and small pike. But pike aren't too shy so if you're going for pike tie a mono leader about 7 foot and to that a two foot section of about 15 pound test braid the braid should suffice and it's alot easier to throw than a wire leader.
@@ryankiesow2127 dude, great stuff. I wanna get into fly fishing, and this comment helps me out a lot
Absolutely beautiful fish!
Anyone have a count of how many times he says "on the fly"?
Finally a deeper voice than Jon B
SGB Fishing I don’t know exactly why but this comment made me actually laugh out loud!
He does kinda sound like Jon now that I think of it.
Lol
his vids are good though
Go with a nail knot for your fly line / leader connection. For leader to tippet I prefer a blood knot or double surgeons knot. For tying on a fly you can’t go wrong with a Davies knot or improved clinch knot.
this fish is similar to our "tilapia rendalli" we found here in Brazil....
You had a tube jig for the first black crappie
I'm also new to the sport I'm just gonna share some stuff I've learned but you need to choke up on the rod or get as high up on the rod as you can
I know the ideal way to bring in a fish is to drag your line in by hand but I think it's a lot more fun to reel them in. Cool vid. I love fly fishing for panfish.
What you need now is a good pair of waders you will love wading and fly fishing.nice vid
Thank you! ill have to look into getting waders
I just got into fly fishing. It is so fun. How long should the leader line Be?
Approximately the length of your rod. Just keep adding tippet to the length of your rod.
That's so situational. Tomorrow will be my first time going after bass/pan fish, but I've gone as long as 15' for trout.
Nice vid love the fly fishing. Keep making great vids.
Thanks man, hope you enjoy em
the first two were bluegill
That was my first fly rod and reel combo. She was a trooper haha
she does the job!
Thank for the vid.
I have a bunch of equipment.
I haven't used it yet, hopefully soon.
Nice fish, try fishing two flies at the same time. So much fun!
The one with all the orange was a pre spawn male blue gill .
Just a word of advice - always have forceps, nippers on you when you fish. That way you can make the decision right there when you land it if the hook can be removed safely or you need to cut the line off. Even though they are panfish, limit the amount of time the fish is out of the water unless you plan on keeping it.
Home Brew right? Dudes holding thr fish, 2 feet from the water while worrying about a thorn in his shoe. All to capture the release on video... knob
I have that same fly rod
What type of flies were u using.
Bluegill love flies!
Nice work. Keep Flyfishing, it will only further enrich your life.
I got that same fly rod
yo we got the same rod the martin pan fish rod. i haven't gone fly fishing before but i hope to do some practicing soon. how had the rod, reel, and line held up? do you have any other tips you could share?
yeah the rod is great the reel is a little annoying because it has no drag but if you palm it itll work just fine, its an awesome kit to start fly fishing! hope you enjoy it.
SWEET VIDEO!
thank you!
Get some chest waders. Opens that water up so much more.
i have em just didnt feel like putting them on, plus its about 5 feet deep a few feet offf shore here lol
I have to agree with Ryan. People don't typically wade in ponds/lakes. For one, a fair amount of places don't let you wade in Stillwater. Secondly, unless it's a gravel/rock bed - you may be stepping into to feet of muck and may get stuck or not be able to wade out that far - so what would be the advantage?
I have the same exact fly pole I got it for $40 at big 5 lol
i paid 35 for it! its a great beginner one
I got it for 26 on amazon
@@theredwhiteandbrown3852 $21 now.
Anybody wanna tell me the brand?
@@MrJoJoH95 Martin fly rod combo
Dude, sooo fun to see you starting out. My first Rod/Reel combo was from cigarettes "proof of purchase" seals, and I DON'T SMOKE!! I literally would buy you cigarettes so I could get the Seal.
I went the other direction and caught only trout for the first 20 years of Fly Fishing, then I went with my Club to a lake for Bass and panfish and it was GAME ON!!
BEST FUN I'VE EVER HAD N I'M A MARRIED MAN!!
it's really cool watching you make a million mistakes, you'll get the hang of things soon enough.
I don't know where you live or finances but that pond/lake your at would be a lot easier if you had a float tube or kayak...
P.S. LEARN YOUR KNOTS!! Critical!
Fish on Brother.
That first one was a blue gill
you never caught a crappie on a fly, that was a lure that can be used on any rod... don't say you're fly fishing just because you use a fly rod you basically are just using a rod with a string... you are not fly fishing
I thought flies were attracted to crappy not the other way around
Barry Bennett crappies love bugs
you didnt get the joke...
🤣🤣
I live in Buffalo NY
thats about 4 hours from me.
Btw the crappie was not on a fly 8s was a jig
3:52 'Holy Crappie"
Why do you edit the casting part ?
Should release wher you catch so they can go back to ther nest and guard ther eggs for more latter....
all thee fish I this vid besides the bass and crappie, were bluegill. sunfish have distinctive bright blue line going from there bottom lip to there gill plate and are usually brighter and more beautiful than your standard bluegill. also you can tell the gender of a bluegill by the color, a female is usually the larger, and paler in color, while the male is dark purple and black back, and less aggressive.
thats awesome thanks for the insight man!
Keep up the good work😁
The first fish u cought was a bluegill
Hey whats a good beginner fly fishing rod/pole?
You look a little like soar tenser
what lol
You aren't H. Jon Benjamin's son by chance are you?
Using that Martin beginner fly combo😂👌🏽 30$😱
nothing but the best lol
Same bro
Me too 😁
Also the $50 pflueger combo is great it comes with tippet (floating ish) and leader and I think a few flies
Fishnfreak04 And it has a drag!
When are you going to fish in your big boat?
I have been out on it a few times but havent gotten any good video
Ryan F. X it's all good. By the way it's awesome
Learn your fish bro. And don’t forget your pliers.
That a martin brand fly combo? I got the same one. Great video.
I just got mine last week and love it...30 bux for a starter works just fine.
like the beginners kit? i bought one today but i dont know if its good
What do you have for setup, and is this a combo?
yeah its a martin beginner combo lol
@dbassing the martin and pfluger combos are super cheap and a great way to get into fly fishing! they are anywhere from 25-45 bucks
thank god finally someone who says crappie right
lol yes i hear ya on that one dude lol
You two are joking right?
honestly he says both right in a row
It’s pronounced Craw pee
“Craw pee” not “crap pee”
biggyrat57 its spelled crappie kinda funny huuu....
@@alexblair9047 here we say crop- pee. We never say sunfish , they are bream. Jus depends on where ya live brother . :)
Riverside Country Club or maybe perch or Sun perch we say crawpee in TX.
Bum
What’s ur setup
RedneckHunter Outdoors it is a begginer entry level martin fly combo. they are 25-45 bucks depending on store or sale. great begginer set to get you flinging flies
cool video dude, im trying to get into fly fishing myself, what would you say is the best fly fishing combo on a budget?
i bought my first fly rod reel combo with the line for 40 bucks lol just shop around youll find something.
BassFishing tv don't skimp on a rod sure you can get a cheap one but 100 is probably the minimum I'd spend. A decent rod will last just about forever.
i have the same reel and i'm not sure how to tighten the drag, do you know how?
Jonas McGuckin there actually is no drag on it. I bought a new one with drag for that reason
It's a bluegill
Your not even using a fly HMU on Instagram rem.miller and I’ll send you some
Lmao bro you're using the wrong hand looks like
im a Lefty
same here, you should be able to flip the handedness on the reel. nice work.
If you were actually using flies it might be easier to cast
B O R D E R L I N E - A R T I S T I C
nice "crappy"..... lol
That is a bream....pronounced "brim."
There are actually no Bream here where im at in New York
Ryan F.
Bream or Brim is a colloquial term in the South used to refer to some members of the Centrarchidae family. Typically bluegill, pumpkinseed, and sunfish. Not to be confused with the actually fish called "bream". It's a confusing nickname.
if i were you i would get a better fly rod because i have that same martin rod its a pretty bad rod. you should get a cheap $100 outfit
Yeah the rod is pretty bad i just got it to get into fly fishing, I now have a nice fly reel and will be looking to get a nicer rod this year.
8:40 dont do that on fly rods
bro its not fly fishing if your using a tube jig not even a fly
Streamers on a fly rod = fly fishing.
First looked like a wooley bugger to me, or similar. Second was some sort of bead head nymph. Not sure which as I've only fly fished for trout and almost exclusively used dries. So he was definitely fly fishing. When I was doing it 3-4 days a week I could have made decent casts where he was, but just starting out and in that cover he was doing a lot of plunking, but I think that's acceptable under the circumstances. I've fly fished for 40+ years and I'm going after bass/pan fish for the first time in the morning. I'm sure I will have a lot to learn.
Nice vid Ryan. Like the fly fishing theme. It so much fun I have been doing it for some time and it is amwesome
I'm just getting into it, today was my first real day of fly fishing and i loved it! Definitely something I'm going to enjoy for a long time
