Caught, cleaned and cooked my first trout today for lunch, and I don't think I would have been successful with out all the knowledge I've learned from you guys. I can't thank you all enough for one of the best lunches I've ever had. cheers!

[@maxtonjohan8064]

Pro tip : you can watch movies on flixzone. I've been using them for watching a lot of movies these days.

[@philldunagan9989]

The float idea works great fly fishing in lakes. It is just too difficult to get your fly out as far as you sometimes need to with a fly rod if you are fishing from a bank. So the spinning rod and float do dramatically increase your casting distance. One fly that works very well here in the southwest is a "pistol-pete" fly; simply a #10 wooly worm with a small propeller on the front. A slow steady retrieve is needed to keep the small propeller moving. I always enjoy your videos and especially the tips you give along the way.

[@Dreamlink91]

In my years of looking youtube fisherman, Carl and Alex have the best channel with great big fish and story BUT by far you are my nr.1 when It comes to guides, setups, tips. No cringe music and shit just straight to the point and thats it.

[@nanuq6752]

Thank you for the tips! Took my daughter fishing on her birthday, and she caught her first ever trout on this setup. Great memories, and good fun. Grateful.

[@crackerjack9120]

I learned to use flies on UL gear and pull behind my inflatable pontoon. Even on slow days I catch fish. On good days, I am catching two at a time. You gave me an idea with stopping the action for the fly to sink. Since I began pulling flies, I have not a one day without catching something. Large blue gilled are great fighters.

[@Texburrito03]

I love this setup with water- filled bubbles too. Great tutorial!

[@markwells8631]

South Carolina here, every chance I get my line wet, I'm casting for trout.

[@thecount1001]

this is great. fly fishing is so bloody complicated and nearly impossible to manage the rods and line from a canoe. this is a great alternative. keep it simple, why i love spinning set ups.

[@360fishingadventures8]

Last year I went to a small fork of a famous salmon river in the Olympic Mountains in washington. I only brought a spinning rod instead of the fly rod (don't even know why I fly fish all the time), and I ran into some GIANT picky wild rainbows. Found a fly box and used this exact technique and I caught a 24×19 inch massive rainbow. After that I proceeded to catch a 20×14 rainbow next cast. Used this exact technique. Most extraordinary thing in fishing I've ever done hands down. Next time I fish there I'm gonna fish the fly rod. Thanks for the video, brought back one of my favorite fishing memories! 🙂

[@colbymyers6278]

I fish flys under bobbers all the time. Its very effective.

@@rat-boi-zen5162 Oh really? Okay cool. Well I guess someday here in the upcoming summer I'll have to drive up there from Vancouver and go and look for it! I heard though that you have to pay there at that lake? Is that true? I heard it's a privately owned fishing spot where you pay to fish, but I'm not 100% on that. Do you know anything about that...? Thank you for your response man!

[@HungryH1951]

I discovered this way to fish a few decades back, almost by accident. I went hiking in the WA state mountains up to a remote lake & spent 3 days there. I tried everything I could think of to get the big rainbows to bite. Salmon eggs, spinners, spoons etc. Nothing would work, not a single bite. Then on the final day I was there, late afternoon, I had an idea come out of nowhere, I then removed a fly from a rooster tail type spinner, tied it on and put a big red & white bobber about 5 feet above it tossed it out there. Wham!! A nice trout right off the bat. Again. And again, trout after trout. In about 30 minutes I had 5 nice trout. Then the sun began to go down and fishing was done. I left next morning but never forgot about a bobber and fly. Lesson learned.

[@whyotdog3468]

I have learned a lot from you guys and appreciate all the extremely helpful information you post. Im a local here in Washington and would absolutely love to go fishing with you guys

[@frankiefernandez5252]

Green Wooly bugger is deadly. The bigger trout love em.

[@laurancespoo3429]

I love this video, nice to see I'm not the only one who does this.

[@paulcannell7188]

good info. nice low key style of presentation. Love the way your dog joined in.

[@bornhunter2885]

Good info dude, suggestion tip your rod to the 10 & 2 position to pull the fish away from the weeds. This is very effective when fighting a big fish, works great when using ultra light rods.

[@mousepudding]

Thanks, this was exactly the info I needed! Didn't even have to search. Just popped up. Now I just have to find the flies.

[@thomasflickinger1949]

Used a similar technique many a year ago, very effective. watching the vid reminds me of simpler days, a fly ,spinning rod and float. Sometimes had only two or three patterns. Caught a lot of trout. Again thank you for your tutorial. PS will try this with unweighted TM's.

[@Annie-zf7xi]

Never thought of using a fly on spin gear. Such a great idea. I have flys for days- so putting a box together will take minutes. I’ve learned so much here thanks guys!1😀👍🎣

[@A-R53]

Thank you body! Me as amateur in fishing wanted to know about how to fish trout. Your video is very helpful!

Thanks for showing this. I just don't have the patients to fly fish so it nice to learn about this option!

[@jerrybriseno6136]

I really enjoy your videos. Thank you so much for sharing. Can’t wait to get out on the lake and try this method of fishing 🎣

[@spencerpirzadeh5517]

Love the videos! When you refer to the lure type flies- would a pistol Pete be an example of what you’re talking about with that little propeller on it?

[@danielfrechette2938]

This was how I got my first limit of trout , thanks for the info man really helped

[@michaelbandeko3519]

I use this technique with the Addicted panfish float in the river or the lake.

[@Hi-di6fd]

I’m a fly fisherman. And I’m starting to look in the spinning gear because sometimes the wind is just too strong or places are too tight to do any kind of fly casting. Interesting to see how you can use flies with spinning gear. I don’t know why More Spinner guys don’t put a lot more positives in their retrieve. It’s almost like most people throw it out there and reel it in as fast as they can.

[@SometimesTurtle]

It's all I know so far, and it's amazing, I also am told by many that it's an old school strategy that is tried and true.

[@flav7634]

What a great info channel well done.

[@terribleatfishing]

awesome video, I will do this. I live in Klamath Falls and the trout are huge here. Thank you

[@felixpalmer407]

My favorite way to rig my line, I love your videos and I subscribed today! Also caught my first blueish rainbow trout that was around 15 inches with this type of rig. Used a grasshopper fly from south bend

[@NathanJackLouttit]

Just caught my first trout today about 8lbs I'm pumped my wife just cooked it what a cool animal

[@jasonpullan488]

Cool video, hey Jordan, look up Scotsman, Alexander Wanless, his books written in the 1940s and 50s, he pioneered the technique, interesting that his methods were banned on some Scottish salmon river s

[@OnRappel]

What purpose does the float serve? So the line doesn't weigh down the fly? Or maybe so you can cast futher?

[@kirostojkoski3684]

I love your videos, keep up the awesome work

[@wuquanchi]

one guy in the lake, super calm water no flow, using this setup and just casting and waiting, no action to lure at all, and crushed the fish!!! Damn, I used tons of lures, and cast and retrieve didnt work!!! I still cannot believe my eyes how productive this rig is!!!! and yes I caught tons of fish in that lake using the cast-and-retrieve method!

[@mixedmartialnutrition1746]

flies are great for many species the picky blue gill that dont bite plastics can attack flies.

Can you make a video of you studying the insects

[@edreis5502]

Really enjoy your videos. Do you have any videos on which type of braided line to use? Not only poundage but color. Thanks.

[@TopBananaMan]

I have a question, I'm fairly new to fishing and don't know alot about fly fishing however I think grasping the concept you're showing here quite well. My question is if I'm using this set up with a Wolly bugger or nymph (which to my knowledge are known as wet flys because they fall under the water) I use the technique you're showing here with the slow retrieve and rod jerks? And if I were to use a dry fly I would make my cast and just leave the fly sit for an extended period of time? Love the videos

[@jihohan6677]

How do you cast that thing out there? Does the fly have enough weight or is it the bobber you are using? Would trout magnet e-z float work? or do I need a weighted float?

[@AddictedFishing]

Jiho Han weighted floats or water bobbers work great!

[@bigeblunders]
