Now that wasn’t so hard! Thanks for keeping it simple!

Hello, greetings, is there a way to listen to it in Spanish?
Thanks for the tips!! I’m in Canada, surprisingly hard to find other young fly anglers up this way so it’s hard to learn this stuff
Funny and informative! My issue is calling a fly reel a "line keeper"! Please STOP perpetuating this myth! Trying to "strip" a large fish in is just asking for a break off cause you are holding the line too tight and the fish makes a sudden run and pop there goes the fly. Having the fish on the reel with a good drag system ensures more fish in the net by softening the runs, head shakes and jumps. Teach beginners to get the fish on the reel as soon as possible so they develop muscle memory and correct technique even if they just using their hand to supply drag on a cheap reel.
Appreciate your sense of humor, very easy to watch, thanks 🙂
what size of rod is best for fishes weighing between 2 and 4 pounds ? wanna hop onto fly fishing but dont wanna get a too big nor too small of a rod. thanks
Curious on the starter kit you have. How does that rod compare to a TFO one I’m looking at? Also do you recommend a bag over a vest?

As a lawn care employee I feel like walking on uneven ground would be the least of my worries but anyone have any wader boot combos that are effective and won’t break the bank?
Two floatant. Gel and powder. If only one powder.
Hat….what about that…gorgeous, ridiculous, crooked hat? Is it a must have…just saying
Gidday guys. As yet I don’t own any fly fishing gear, this video is real helpful. Thanks.
thank you
Dude, watching you is amazing. I’ve never fly fishes before but am wanting to get into it. Even outside fly fishing, you’re one of my favorite YouTubers. Commentary is top notch
1966, (I was 15) my dad bought me a 7wt rod with I don’t know what line, no backer, and the reel is spring loaded so you can pull a lever and it reels in the line by itself. Neither of us knew anything about fly fishing, but I had won 6 doz. flies in a contest advertised in Outdoor Life (1st 100 to send in a fishing story gets 72 assorted flies). I still have the rod (busted tip) and most of the flies, but still don’t know anything. Do you know anything about the spring loaded reel, and is it useful in a practical sense?
Word! And that stealthy Great Blue Heron around 6:45 mark is excellent film making 💪🏻
That was way more than 10. But thank you, that was helpful. My husband is going to wish I was only shopping for accessories to go with a dress.
i’ve always been told that a 6wt rod is the all around rod? i live in finland tho so it’s probably because of that
I’m offended!!! As a woman.. the only accessories I’ve ever spent $1000 on is fishing gear!!! 😂
Thx
Whats the weirdest fly name youve heard
Good guide! I’ve always been confused about different poles, what is the difference between a fast and slow action rod?
Just bought the Essential Collection (40 pack) as a thanks for putting this series together. I’ve been out on my own and with guides but still consider myself ‘new’ and have enjoyed the videos in this series. Much appreciated!
"questionable meat" was my nickname in college
Is this near Abiqui in New Mexico?
exactly what i needed! thank you!
I’m extremely grateful for this video! I watched bunch of other videos and read a lot of forums but no one explained everything about fly fishing as simple as you did. Thank you!
Can I fish nymphs drys and streamers with a 6 wt that’s what I got
This is great!!! simple, clear and fun!
Thanks
I just joined your podcast, thanks guys
Awesome thanks as I’m just starting out
Love this one, I know a few people that are interested in starting up, and I will send them your videos
Definitely ordering y’all’s pack on the 1st! I want to get into fly fishing so bad!! And this is the year I’m starting!
