    Tom Rosenbauer you are truly an inspiration I’m 61 and just tried fly fishing for the first time I caught my first ever Brown on my first time fly fishing . My second trip out to the Kern River I pretty much donated flies to the trees. Your videos are so helpful I will be back at again this weekend practicing the roll cast. Thank you very much and yes thank you Orvis. (By the way my first fly rod purchase was an Orvis )

    started fly fishing last spring. Learning from YT and trail and error. It's a tough sport, but damn it's fun!!
    I enjoy these type of shows, so please keep them up.

      When using dry flies do you need to put a shot on line for easy casting or does that defeat the purpose

    • @thefirststrike
      @thefirststrike 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@davidhansen9665 When fly fishing you don't use shot for casting. The fly line is what carries your fly into the water. Shot is used to sink a nymph or streamer down into the water column. Putting shot on a line with a dry fly would indeed defeat the purpose, as a dry fly is supposed to rest on the top of the water.

    I laughed when you referred to the fast flowing river as a 'stream' ...... a stream in the UK would be about 6 - 10 feet wide... anything bigger would be a 'river'..... everything is BIGGER in the U.S.! Great video though - techniques are universal.... Thanks!

      Except in Arizona,, lol. I grew up in New Hampshire fishing/hunting NH & Maine. Where our Streams, Rivers, Ponds & Lakes are some of the clearest cleanest In US. I moved to Arizona 4 yrs ago asked everyone where do we go swimming, fishing etc. They brought me to this tiny dark brown creek saying here's one of our best rivers.. WTHeck.. I was so bummed out. Same with lakes here in Az are size of our ponds/bogs back east. I miss seeing 17' down watching trout swim around in my NH & Maine waters. Az water bites.. But they do have huge Elk, Bear, and some very strange Cryptid Sasquatch & Dogmen.. Yikes !!! Lol

      @@jamesgibbs8827 you're missing a good few great waters in AZ then! Lived there for a few years and the fishing is phenomenal. Try Payson area for some really great small creeks, the Colorado has some great trout fishing as well if you want bigger water, and there are some very large lakes there with Lake Pleasant, Havasu, and Roosevelt, and quite a few others. The fishing is definitely different, but great in it's own way. I even caught my largest rainbow in AZ at 24", with a lot of them coming close. Check out Will Jordan's 'Fly Fisher's Guide to Arizona' for lists of great waters along with access points and flies to use.

    What I find great about fishing, I don't care much for hurting the little things. They are all uncaring eaters, they all kill and eat fish shrimp and stuff alive and whole. Unlike deer... it always takes two or three tries to pull the trigger until I am sure I want to eat it.

  • @johnkendall6962

    There is a small stream near me, A good running leap will get you across it in places, It has one of the heaviest Yellow sulfer hatches I have ever seen . Just before dark there is so many flies floating down stream it's hard to keep track of your fly. The trout set up a rhythm that you can almost time. YOU have to present the fly in not only the right place with no drag but also in the right time in the rhythm . A perfect presentation is no good if not timed right. Because of the undercut banks under old sycamores some trout are much larger than you would ever think could be in such a small stream.

    • @newflyfisher
      @newflyfisher  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      depends upon the fly and the circumstances. swinging an emerger without movement works well but sometime you need to give it little twitches like it is struggling in the water. for dry flies, you usually left them float or drift in current

    Watching a pool for a while without casting is very productive as said in this video, I am reminded of a time many years ago when I was in a true trophy river I sat and watched a rise for about 20 min I worked out where the bigger fish were sitting and was almost ready to get into the water and make my cast when a boorish guy strides up between me and the river and makes a cast to the smaller splashy risers in close and hooks up to a nice 3lb rainbow which took him way downstream in the pool I walked forward and cast to the big girl at the far side and also hooked up that fish took me nearly 10 minutes to get to the net I weighed it in the net at just under 10lb this dude was yelling at me for taking so long as he wanted to get back in to catch a big one. By now it was dark and I never said a word to the guy but wandered over to my tent and sat down for a glass of wine by the fire with my wife. That fish remained in the river to the best of my knowledge.
    Sometimes its all about the fish and you have to ignore the bullshit to get there. By the way that fish was the family PB until my granddaughter at 6yrs old caught a 10.5lb monster on a nymph. Another family legend.

    Funny enough as a kid I started fly fishing with the dry fly. My dad reckoned I'd warm to it faster as it was much more visual. And I did. I've introduced a couple of friends to fly fishing and again I started them on the dry and they seemed to have the same experience. Others I've met down the years who started as most do(at least here in Ireland) by down stream wet fly fishing find the dry more difficult. I think a lot of it is the "high brow" perception of it, plus you can go years wet fly fishing and catching fish, with not so great casting and presentation skills. The current tends to smooth out bad technique. Thats harder to un-learn I think.
    Anyway great channel with great info. Subscribed. :)

      Scientists are divided about whether pinching down barbs helps protect fish, specifically trout. John Cooke at Carlton University in Ottawa Canada is doing research on this right now as there is NO actual proof scientifically that going barbless helps trout. As he likes to say, "it depends". So many important factors like size of hook and its shape, species of fish and size. Hopefully his study will be out soon to help everyone make better choices about barbed versus barbless.

    I fish a floating line always, I use just drennans sun surface leader that I cut about 10ft in length. When I tie on a dry fly it doesn’t stay on the surface it gets wet then sinks, do I need to apply a floatant to the leader and fly ?
