[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

Hope y’all enjoy this little gem I found on my hard drive! Got an ULTRA BANGER coming up next 🎣😈

You should go back to that secret spot you used the back salties at. And take Reggie.

[@Delmarvafishing]

Fly fishing is frustrating, trout fishing is a lot more appealing when there is nothing else to catch. Can we get a hint about the "banger" of a video???? 👀

[@koriibett]

@1Rod1ReelFishing I know this sounds weird, but do you think I could catch a bass on a bobber alone (and a hook)? Maybe adding in some 'walk-the-dog' action?

[@efrizzles]

I still remember the day I went on YT and searched “how to cast a baitcaster” and stumbled upon your channel.

[@Juice_Drago_13]

The best discovery huh. That happened with me as well

[@guylaackmann1286]

That’s how I found him too😂

[@valentinoconti3894]

Me too, 5 years ago or something like that

[@goldenraisin5081]

great minds think alike😁🐟

[@timbershield432]

Lol I did the same

[@Joshregannn]

Loved to hear that Skye learned fly fishing from an older gentleman from Nova Scotia!!! Made my day and love the fly fishing videos guys!!! Stayed Blessed!

[@andrediaz6205]

I can guarantee if that dude was so happy to pass down his tricks and tips to the right person and now they’re being shared with tens thousands of people his tricks live on a for a few more generations

[@jchestero]

I've been fly fishing for about 10 years and I totally agree with your dude there. Don't get caught up in the gear junkie game in fly fishing when starting out. In fact my dream to to start a channel on how to get started fly fishing with the minimum bare essentials and starting techniques. This video is absolute pleasure. Thanks for trying out new things and letting us go along for the ride.

[@Imabot16467]

I would watch your channel I've always wanted to try fly fishing but have no idea how

[@chriskolb3105]

Using a tapered leader will definitely give you more pin-point accuracy. You can tie your own up with four or five pieces of gradually heavier trilene bloodlined together.

[@BlackNomadFabrication]

One tip: when you are hooking a fish make sure that you don't pull from above your pointer finger, and you put the line under the pointer finger while hooking, to keep the line tight. Your casting is great, but one thing is that if you don't want to hook yourself is by raising your arm up a little bit, also when casting back, look back to make sure that it forms a loop and if you are not looking, make sure that you don't hear snapping, that means you're going to fast with you casting and you must slow down to not lose your fly.

[@LeTelecaster]

"Do you feel more connected to the stream with a fly rod" *hooks up* "I FEEL CONNECTED" Haha, that was. awesome 19:20

[@SticksAandstonesBozo]

I love being out on a creek. Catching fish is just a reason to do it. Fly fishing takes brains and skill so I only do that. But the insane excitement guys get has fascinated me all my life.

[@devinshook3289]

Grew up a bass angler because i had access to my family's farm pounds but when i moved out west i fell in love with fly fishing and barely use my conventional tackle anymore. Warmwater species are a lot of fun to fly fish for as well

[@jonmullins8460]

I'm surprised and happy that the technique guys haven't been in here complaining. I'm just getting back into fly fishing and will be taking a trip in a couple weeks. This video has me excited. One piece of advice. When working the fly in the water, try wrapping the index finger of your rod hand under the line then strip with your free/reel hand from behind your rod hand instead of in front. This way you'll have fewer chances of losing control of the line. As far as casting, you're already better than me. I'm out here looking like I'm casting spells instead of flies. Anyway, It's great to see you guys out in a stream and promoting conservation.

[@TheSkyeLife]

Passing it on!!!! This was a special moment bro! I'll never forget my first time casting a fly rod, now you definitely wont either! Especially after getting blitzed by 100's of trout on your first cast lol. What a day

[@ethanliess4203]

Thats a beautiful palomino sir

[@xeroufc949]

Why do you say bolth? That’s always been a pet peeve of mine, it’s both, there’s no L lmfso

[@masterwon]

man fishing with you would be awesome, but also with sky. you can just sense his passion when he talks about fishing. he was a great teacher for your first time 1rod!

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

No doubt! Very lucky to learn the art of fly fishing from my dude Skye! 🎣😎

[@Shinuchiha_99]

Me and my dad have been dry fly fishing for 15+ years along the front range of northern Colorado and have caught some great fish to bat!! I caught my first master angler brown from a resevoir In Nederland last year on a size #14 blue wing olive 22 inch trout! Fly fishing is truly a blast and a great learning experience for many newcomers!! 😊💯🎣

[@lorenoconnor6448]

Catching even a big bluegill on a fly rod is so fun, a decent bass is amazing.

[@tchuffstutler5664]

Tip: I’ve only used 3x or 5X leader and tippet of the same size. Also bend your fly line at the loop to thread your guides when setting up your fly rod. It’ll help if you accidentally let go and it won’t fall through all of your guides.

[@Accurize2]

Dude! Your friend teaching you is so enthusiastic about fly fishing. I can’t help but like this guy!

[@greggosborne6452]

Absolutely love the fact that you tried fly fishing I fish in Vermont for the past five years and love it!!!!!

[@Michael-cf9lf]

Awesome 2 guys that love the sport, catch n release.

[@dougjohnson9948]

Skye you are a natural teacher and guide. Your student seemed to pickup casting quickly. Good video guys

[@fishmut]

I think he has had a bit of practise , any beginner is awkward when they first try a fly rod , he was doing it straight away a bit to easily for my liking, it’s not that easy First time trying to cast a fly line.

[@Guilmon470]

Something also good for beginners is just starting out with a roll cast.

[@yousufhassan4254]

What is that if you don’t mind me asking?

[@RF-ls2hg]

@@yousufhassan4254 a roll cast is a variation of fly casting that fishermen use when they have minimal room behind them to do a normal fly cast. You can check out Mad River Outfitters video on it. Give it a search!

[@cjbotts]

For some reason I had a harder time roll casting than a normal fly cast when I first picked up a rod and tried to learn to cast

[@fishjuice3153]

Absolutely that’s how I got into fly fishing

[@countdiscalcula8185]

That dude Sky seems chill.

[@matt2993]

Thanks for this vid! The hook set and reeling in is hardly discussed on the beginner videos so this was exactly what I needed

[@windriveroutdoorcompany3231]

As the premier fly fishing store of Wyoming, we're happy to see 1Rod pick up the incredibly addicting art of fly fishing! Let us know if you ever want to take a trip up to Wyo to catch some monstrous mountain trout!

[@Jamesonhs]

Hello

[@wildbillsadventuresoutdoor9276]

Awesome, so cool see someone learning how to fly fishing!! Your friend taught you good lessons fly fishing!!! So cool seeing your excitement catching your first fish!!!! Great video 📹 👍🏻

[@lesterholton1010]

I never learned to fly fish. We used 202 zebco and rooster tails,salmon eggs , cheese balls and mill worms in Pa.

[@Czarlite]

Just when you thought the New Jersey send was over, 1rod mega hook sets every trout on the fly rod 🤙🏽

[@michaelstewart7602]

You're doing awesome! Taught myself how to fly fish this year, and I wish I'd had Skye with me to speed up my learning curve!!

[@scottswingley3878]

I’ve been waiting for this day

[@southontariooutdoors]

Same here bro

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

This vid was long overdue tbh 😅😅

[@watchan1908]

When you strip a streamer, point the rod tip toward the streamer, keep you rod down. that will impart better action to your fly. When you strip pointing the streamer, you will set the hook when you strip. No need to set hook and no lost on fish when it strike.

[@cjbotts]

That’s actually a super helpful tip I’ve never heard this. Just getting started myself though

[@watchan1908]

Personal experience from any years of trial and error. It works great in lakes.

[@manisteeoutdoors]

It is truly amazing when I catch a Trout on my own fly on wild trout. Great Video!

[@off-roadcrouse5636]

Another tip is to watch your shadows like when yall were standing on the bridge your shadow possibly spooked the trout.

[@christianino2931]

Sky is solid , good vid man thanks for posting

[@rudyruiz9521]

Totally agree, that a more accurate cast can made for a max of 75-80ft for me, Curving the line behind things, and faster follow up casts to the target are all strong points.

[@largeburrito612]

i love you’re videos bro, something i look forward to everyday.

[@SUflyfshn-YT]

-One Rod post a video of him fly fishing... -Me, an avid fly fishermen : “It is time.” (Lion king music playing in the background.)

[@samiam6190]

As a new fly fisherman let me say this is low key the best Fly tutorial on YT haha!

[@ExoticsLair]

Mann flyfishing looks so complicated lol

[@chriskolb3105]

It’s no more complex than spinning or casting gear.

[@alexlou90]

It really isn't

[@juodaszmogus]

Never thought id see you here😯 do you fish?

[@devinshook3289]

It's hard to become an expert, but not hard to become proficient, just like any other type of fishing

[@nate5811]

Started fly fishing last year for trout. It is by far my favorite style. I still watch ya’lls videos though for the entertainment. Fly fishing is not easy and to me way more rewarding. I’m addicted and can’t wait to go wade in a river all day catching trout. Just me and nature.

[@calvinferren1949]

Using a 3 wt for bass is so unbelievably fun it doesn’t matter if the fish is two pounds or a few ounces the fight is amazing

[@allenc749]

Awesome stuff love seeing utubers who mix in fly fishing every once in a while. Wish I saw it more often. Coming from an avid fisherman who fishes w comventional/ baitcasting, spinning and fly rod... there's a time and place for each.

[@kance111]

Brook (speckled) Trout fishing is the biggest sport fishing in Nova Scotia! Was really happy to hear my province mentioned 👍

[@ErikaGonzalez-gf3cl]

Nice, love those rainbow trout keep it up 1Rod 1Reel!

[@WhyteKong]

This was hilarious 😂

[@davidcarden6868]

Amazing video 😍 absolutely nuts for fly-fishing love to see more of these!!

[@watchman316ly]

Fly fishing is an art. Learn to feel the rod and let it whip the line out. It is an extension of your arm. Be patient and allow the line to make it back before you sling it out again or the line will buckle and turn into a knot- lol! You'll get the idea of it. Thank you for sharing- it seems you had a lot of fun!

[@3runjosh]

3 mins in, this is a great video so far, good one guys

[@VixxyFoxxy]

whaaaaaaa????? Dude I literally just got my fly fishing setup and need to learn what to do. Great timing!!!!

[@thelinecook]

So awesome seeing you out there with a fellow New Jersian. Skye is an awesome dude and watching him teach you to fly fish was awesome. Mike your willingness to learn from others is something refreshing to see. Love what you are doing with the channel lately 👍

[@twotoned2774]

I live in Charleston, SC and we have no streams here to fly fish trout (checked DNR site). However, I have caught bass and it's a great feeling. Nice video!!

[@MrMoua-nb9mh]

FINALLY!. Welcome to the club.

[@slapjawjake7263]

@1Rod1ReelFishing come down to Miami this is my boy! The Skye Life is the most positive guy I have ever met. Me and him agree that life is about full sending it! I would love to put you on some swamp fishing my friend.

[@sn1pzclan496]

Your my fav fishing channel love the vids to there fire🔥🔥🔥

[@OscarG396]

This guy never gets old

[@SmossyYT]

lol I remember years ago I bought a nice combo fly set. I tried it once then put it away haha. It really is challenging.

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

Gotta commit to learning a new art! 👊

[@mikaonthefly3871]

I went fly fishing once and I put up my casting reel. I suck at it but I find it so relaxing, specially wading down creeks

[@HobboBrog]

Thanks for your quality videos They are getting me through quarantine

[@Nate-wc9ep]

Ayee!! I started to fly fish today too. I wasn’t looking to catch anything (because I was teaching my self) and it was super fun and totally different from spin fishing

[@zakksrage]

Fly fishing for stocker trout can tend to give you some false bravado

[@offshoretherapy2035]

True

[@gunadoo]

yeah, the difference between stockers and picky wild trout is night and day. I had to break out the #23

[@sweaspurdoddd5466]

For sure, but I mean, is there a better way to learn? It's a good way to learn what (generally) works, where they hold up etc.

[@mattburke9554]

​@@gunadoo all trout are finkiy

[@richardcathey8857]

By the looks of it IT'S HARD AND NOT SO HARD at the same time. Great job1R1R🎣x3!!

[@deancameron3740]

Just discovered your channel mate, I've spent most of my life fly-fishing it's great to see someone excited to learn. Shout out from Australia

[@br.samuel4754]

So much Fun, and a good teacher. Awesum.

[@andrewdg90]

Fly fishing for wild trout is definitely my favourite. Using 6lb trilene for a leader isn't wrong necessarily, but tapered leaders have better turn over, distance, and accuracy for sure!

[@206bGoss]

I would love to see you go for bass on the fly rod! Nice video.

[@proxcuber4741]

Love it when 1rod says “lure”

[@martinrodriguez7615]

I’m laughing my ass off. Great video 😂 18:10

I already know this vid is gunna trigger all the pro fly fishermen 😂😂

[@1Rod1ReelFishing]

No doubt 😂😂

[@johnathonramos7639]

Never clicked on a video so fast in my life, 1Rod is gonna go crazy with the fly rod!

[@Rufus761]

Greetings from Australia, great video guys natural presentation. Thinking about getting into fly fishing and this is how I think it would be first time. No need to get too professional just enjoy 😎

[@jirredvang901]

You don't need a tapered leader, when I first started i went straight to tippet. However using a tapered leader feels so much more different and it helps so much also it makes the difference in dry fly fishing. Also keep in mind skye didn't say this but when reeling in a fish you want to use the reel and just not stripping it in because your line will go all over the place, and If it was a big fish you would've lost it as your hand would be pinching the line instead of the reel working the drag system and letting the fish take line. One more thing is when I strip set I pull my rod up too and I tend to hook and land 99% of my fish very rarely do I lose a fish when fly fishing however that's me and maybe my luck Happy to see you getting into something a little new mike

[@jakepage7383]

flyfishing is a blast....i love slammin big bass on a fly they hit like trucks.

[@KillJoyXx1]

Yes!!! Love this, keep it up, this was so fun to watch!

[@mountain3838]

Fly fishing is my favorite way to catch trout and pike because the fight is so much more fun. When stripping line always have your hand pinching the line to the rod and loosen your grip when you want the line in or vice versa.

[@Chrisgalin]

Mad respect! I could live eat and breathe flyfishing.

[@madtownangler]

All you need is a clear bobber made to cast flies. Back when I fly fished I could get my entire line out of the spool and into the air and then switch hands back and forth. Then I hooked someone behind me and stopped fly fishing very much. I only fish in a boat now and I have a one weight for bluegills. Also if you have a basket in front of you on your belt you can let your line go in there rather than in the water to get tangled up.

[@vertex3243]

If you are going straight mono for a leader I'd be sure to make if a lot shorter, like 4 or 5 feet. Especially if you are throwing streamers.

[@anytimefishingandoutdoors6983]
