I would love to see a fly fishing tutorial with a fly rod!! There's a fancy lake up near Carson called goose lake. Amazing fly fishing!! Keep up the great videos y'all.

[@loraxeellogs1248]

Smashed!

[@brianoutdoorspnw6867]

Loving the trout vids. As a new fisherman (who is also newly addicted) I was wondering about Trout behavior throughout the seasons. Should I be switching up my tactics as the seasons change or is it cool to just stay the same? What about time of day? Could be a good video!

[@hedvigjenson4902]

Thank you! My husband was an expert fisherman and I have countless fond memories us taking fishing vacations in British Columbia, Idaho, and Washington State. Of course, he always did my setup for lakes or rivers. I was lazy and never asked why he would use a fly, spinner, or plain ole worm! It has been many years now, I’ve retired, and would like to get back out there with my sons and younger members of my family. And now that I’ve found your channel, I can learn and show my sons Mom just might not need any help! 😁

[@THEDIZSAYS]

The past 2 days I have been trout fishing with my normal minnows and power bait and nothing. I see them jumping but nothing on the line. After watching your video lastnight I went to the bait shop and got the set up you used in your video. It took 15 min before I had my limit. Amazing! Just goes to show you can always learn something new. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Dinner Time.

[@dianamcanally5515]

Years ago I used to watch an older fella come down to the lake in late afternoon, first get his stringer ready, then begin to fish this method, catching a limit in short order. He taught me how to set it up and I've been doing this ever since. Now I'm the older "gal" catching limits and teaching others. Favorite fly is the light Spruce Fly streamer.

[@coryturner9140]

I’ve caught a lot of trout in high mountain, backcountry lakes with this setup. When nobody else was catching fish, I was. It’s deadly

[@dougglez16]

Gotta love that feeling when you’ve “hacked” the fish for the day. You feel like the rockstar at the lake. Haha

[@puprilla]

Same 😆

[@Walker82kg]

Why did it work better the fly or casting distance

[@coryturner9140]

@@Walker82kg both. You can really cast it out there, the fly is a natural lure and those fish love food on the surface it seems.

[@jf8468]

Hax!

[@mortenthenorwegian2875]

Hi! A little greeting from Norway. I really like the way you make videos. This is my favorite way to fish. Sometimes the fly hangs up in the line when landing. This can be solved by stopping the reel a few feet before it lands. But you probably already knew that.

[@ericfreeman5795]

Really good setup. If I may suggest another. I usually fly fish in the south of Chile, but one day there was just too much wind. I grabbed my spinning rod (always take it when conditions aren't right to flyfish) and I made a Carolina Rig. A sliding egg sinker, from 1/8 to 1/4 oz., above a small barrel swivel and about 60 cm (about 24 inches) of 2X tippet for a leader. Then I'd tie on a wooly bugger or large nymph. Cast out then retrieve with an alternating retrieve-jigging motion to give the fly some movement. Caught several trout in spite of the wind. Just a suggestion.

[@rylanherrick5660]

Keen to try this set up!

[@mikemillerstate]

This is easily one of the best fishing tutorials I've watched. Super informative without getting long-winded.

[@michaelkingsbury1385]

Great tutorial. I’m a late in life fisherman. (51 so some great fishing to go). I love to keep it simple sitting at the bank of a river or lake with my telescoping rod. I had no idea you could use flys on traditional pole. This has really upped my game. I honestly love doing the setup. Thanks! More like this would be great!

[@noone6454]

Gets better when you use big flies too

[@philhildebrand9266]

I have also done this for salmon off the bank using streamer flies...killer trick for thos that want to join the fly fishing game without spending on the fly gear.

[@rockytalkndawoods3057]

I love this method cause I'm poor and only have a spinning rod. I was using that technique and a fly Fisherman made fun of me... I caught fish and he didn't, that's fishing karma lol.

[@Headtrons]

You definitely just made that story up but, fly rods can be equally as inexpensive as spin gear. Or, equally as expensive.

[@rockytalkndawoods3057]

@@Headtrons when you already have a rod another rod that requires completely different gear gets expensive. If I had started with only a fly rod and gear it would be a costly investment to go to a spinning rod, etc. As for the fisherman story, it's all true. Their are way too many arrogant fisherman out there. More often then not while combat fishing the guys that talk the most trash get skunked, while humble folks walk away with dinner. 😂🤷‍♂️ Even my photo pic was taken after plunking when the guys around me said that technique never works. The only thing I might lie about is the 45lb bass in this icon picture.😉

[@tombie8763]

You hear a lot of fishing stories when fishing and most are just stories from my experience. Last week some guy try to tell me that he caught a 9lbs calico bass after I just caught a 5lbs calico and I said I'm sure you have a picture to show me? He chuckled and walked away... Lol

[@kenjihojyo717]

a 9lb calico would be a treat to get on a fly rod!! on the other hand, I've seen a lot of good grade calicos come out of Ensenada, you should give that a try

[@derekhallman9770]

I take em both out with me for steelhead - borrowed from another angler, I refer to them as the 'starvation stick' and the 'meat stick'. Take your guess which is which.

[@garyjpilcher]

Thank you Jordan for taking the time to make this video, I really appreciate the equipment and technique tips for this set up - which I am trying for the first time tomorrow. Subscribed!

[@joesmo2840]

One of the most effective technique I’ve ever used with dry fly misquote pattern casting with water bobber with slow steady retrieve

[@paulvalvo9101]

Probably the best tutorial on the surgeon's knot I have ever watched. The toothpick wedge (unlike using a swivel) allows you to easily adjust the depth of the fly. Aweome video. Thank you.

[@Matt-sj5vp]

Man I love watching your guy's content. It's great seeing videos on how to fish all the local lakes I go to!

[@sitbone3]

Nice video. I don’t want to carry two rigs when I’m backpacking. With this setup I can fish wet or dry flies. Easy to switch back to lures. Good fishing, and crimp your barbs.

[@TheEZGZ]

Thanks! 70 years old and picked up a few good tips Thanks again.

[@INFRNL1]

I've been using this method for around 40 yrs... it's one of my favorites. Otherwise just lure fishing. Great video and i like the tip about using a toothpick. I learned a different way to tie the float/ bobber on. I have been using the torpedos with surgical tubing that you twist to hold the line more often though. Both work great. Love your videos and can benefit from some of your tips, thanks and keep up the great work👍

[@johnsurf509]

I headed to Idaho so Im watching all your videos!!Very good information!!

[@pedropaccollazo2039]

I'm 2 videos into your channel. I love the way you give credit to the old ways of fishing. The old writers aren't given credit by these new book writers/video vloggers promoting their books and DVDs series. Thanks again

[@caseymyers1868]

First learned that I could use a fly on a spinning rod about 5 years ago. Had moments where I was laughed at by other anglers but my set up worked (sometimes). Only ever used a red white bobber with this set up as I never knew how to work a water bobber. This vid just gave me a leg up with an old trick that dropped some new knowledge for me. Thanks guys, keep it up!!!!

[@fishertech]

Red white bobbers make too much splash on retrieval

[@EParkFishing]

Awesome video! Deadly technique! I like to use a nice sized jig nymph with a smaller nymph under it and a tiny nymph at the bottom. Usually they hit the tiniest fly but the jig nymph acts as a weight and gets it down to a good depth.

[@fishnhunt3488]

Love this!! I've had some success from a kayak using a small fly fishing float with dry and wet flies but never thought about using a water bobber for weight from shore. I'll be trying this tomorrow! Love your content and am definitely an addict!

[@drumbassandbass]

I wish more KZbin tutorial videos were as good as this one! Nice and informative and clearly explained without any confusion. Thanks! Cant wait to try this technique this coming Spring!

[@roydunmaus6934]

I've been watching trout too feed and scratching my head! Thank you so much for making these tutorials for those of us who don't necessarily have the educated community members to learn from.

[@leonthesickone1873]

Been googling hours and hours for bobbers + fly fishing on a spinner. This video gave me more info than all thoose hours. Best channel for fishing ever

[@pelewads]

This is exactly How I was taught. I didn't know about fly rods until my late teens. But I used flies all the time. There's little that works better for trout.

[@navycop0270]

I was taught that technique when I moved to CO in 1992. I tie a swivel where the bllod knot is. Great tutorial, subbed.

[@raptorpilot8727]

I use a swivel as well to prevent the bubble from sliding down the line, but it can move up the line. That allows a trout to pull the line out without dragging the bubble around. Not sure it matters, but just have always done it that way. One thing I have never heard of is using a dry fly with this technique. Pretty cool...

[@TopBananaMan]

If I were to fish nymphs with this set up do you need to still give it a bit of movement like you would the wolly buggers and streamers?

[@williamb1791]

Have fished this way since I started, from high mountain lakes to stocked lowland lakes. Usually fish 4lb test with 3lb leader. Varied retrieves until you see what working that day on that lake, steady, stop and go, cast and leave. Colors, size and patterns make a huge difference to. Love the take on a fly. Great eps. Guys!!!

[@TJDawgs72]

Learned this when I was 13 fishing a farm pond in eastern Washington state...worked great!

[@philhildebrand9266]

You can substitute the fly with a #6 or #8 baid hook and a power worm. Let it sink and just slowly twitch it back. Just give it enough time to sink. I have also added a swivel with avout a 6ft leader so it can have some added weight to balance the worms boyancy.

[@fishertech]

that double uni looks so much simpler than looping each side at a time like in other tutorials!

[@MtnManJack]

I love this setup! I took my kiddo to a small lake today and used our usual power eggs, no such luck. Threw this setup on and was able to finally catch a handful of rainbow trout.

[@Bobbyc719]

Thats awesome bro. My buddy showed me this a long time ago. I ran into a guy today doing it near Vail Colorado with his help and your video I'm pumped to try this new setup. P.S. love how you are doing the video in the rain like a champ! Lol.

[@TralfazConstruction]

Somewhat forgotten is the tiny propeller-headed Rooster Tail lure from the early-'70s. Decades ago, in my nascent trout fishing career, these were my preferred spinning lure. My buddies and I once spent an entire day chasing all over Bucks County, Pennsylvania, visiting multiple small bait and tackle shops to secure as many #1 and #2 Rooster Tails as we could for an upcoming fishing trip upstate. Good times.

[@indyranga]

Try anything that's unconventional, often on my brook trout streams i'll fish with red worms using my fly rods in the spring months. I'm an avid fly fisherman 51 yrs now and my dad & grandfather always said live natural bait is the best thing to use. Have fun and be safe out there.

[@blairtheageese5269]

Thank you great job teaching us , I m 80 yr young F , who loves to fish ,

[@mountain-milk]

Love this setup. Use it all the time except I don’t stuff a toothpick in the bubble. Instead of tying a surgeons knot, put the bubble on the main line and tie a swivel to the end of the line. Then tie your leader to the other end of the swivel this way when you reel in, the swivel catches the bubble and naturally pulls it. Hope that makes sense. Toothpick is a bad idea... it could come loose but even worse is when it breaks off in there and you can’t get it out making your bubble an unusable piece of trash.

[@patriciadault8983]

That is the way I was tought 30 years ago..works really well.

[@williamizzo3802]

Great video, I’ve been trying to use these bobbers for carp. It came with a bobber stop and bead and you were supposed to first feed the bobber stop and bead through the line. Then put the float on and add a sinker to stop it from moving to the hook. This made no sense to me because and egg sinker would sink to the bottom and an split shot would be weighed down to the hook. Would the bobber stop and bead be under the float or over. Any help would be appreciated

[@russellkeeling4387]

I've done this from the beginning of my fishing life. I never imagined everyone didn't do this. You can use the same method for light lures in order to cast them further. 10 pound test line is very heavy for trout, even large ones.

[@ubethejudge69]

wow i have been doing the fisherman's knot slightly different, your way is faster, I was taught to go threw the eye but then bring that end back through the loop you just made then tighten it down. interesting!

I've long used bubble n' fly in the back country lakes. Deadly!

[@dallaswood4117]

In high mountain lakes this technique is awesome sauce for trout

[@seizedcarcass8440]

My singles favorite style of bobber for this technique is a torpedo float. It has a narrow end and keeps the bait from disturbing the water as well as the fact that they don’t slide down the line after any cast. I’ve used the normal casting bubbles but I don’t like them nearly as much. I highly recommend you try this technique anywhere!

Can you also use split shot instead of bobber?
