Guide and casting champion, Whitney Gould, teaches the basics of Trout Spey. This course is ideal for new anglers, but there are nuggets of information for anglers of all experience levels.
Been a trout spey addict for over a decade now in the PNW. When people ask me, "what's that?"; I'll tell them to watch this video. Great job!
Same here. It is a lot of fun, I also enjoy euro nymphing. I'm on both end of the spectrum
Thanks for the wise words pointing out major fly fishing mistakes; thinking about casting rather than fishing, damaging the fishery and/or yourself by inappropriate gear/techniques.
It's possible that she meant that the longer rod gives the angler more leverage against a fish because it has such a long two-handed handle. While it's true that a longer length above the handle gives the fish more leverage against the angler; if you place one hand high on the handle and plant the rod butt against your stomach, the angler can increase his leverage against the fish.
Excellent clear presentation.
I find my 6 wt 10-6 Pieroway renegade is perfect . Rigged up with opst commando head and 40 wt lazar line to be most efficient. Both double and single hand casting . I’m in south central Alaska .
Longer levers (rod) equals less leverage. That's one of the reasons offshore rods are short. Tight lines
Agreed - just posted the same before I read all comments!
Longer rods are worse leverage on fish, not better. That’s simple physics.
Awesome
awesome!
A longer rod does not give you a leverage advantage. Imagine lifting a 10lb weight... now imagine lifting a 10lb pole but its 20ft long and you can only grab it by the end.
Dunno why it seems people universally make this mistake.
Ace!
Never realized there was a 16' scandi line....
Whitney - with a longer rod the fish gets more leverage on YOU, not the other way round.
The most efficient leverage would be no rod at all...
