Guide’s Life - Third Coast Sightcast X Fly Fishing Texas

Justin Dudley - Third Coast Sightcast [phone]
Justin and I had the opportunity to spend two days fly fishing for shallow water Redfish. We were off the water early both days after catching more than our fair share of fish. Tight Lines and Enjoy!

I like that, “Hunting On The Water.” Very correct. I’m a fly angler / bowhunter at heart. Thanks for this video and bringing me back to center. Amen

"if it's not hard, it's not worth it" I think flyfishers do the world a great disservice by making the fishing public believe that fly fishing is something mysterious and difficult. I've been sight fishing for over 45 years and I can tell you sightfishing with a fly rod is NOT anymore difficult than using conventional tackle, especially where redfish are concerned. I'll go so far as to say that sightfishing for trout and reds in Texas is EASIER than conventional tackle as far as the catching. You have so many more options to present and entice these fish than is available with conventional tackle. I have caught many fish with a flyrod that would have been nearly hopeless to present to with a spoon, plug, jerk bait, or any type of intrusive conventional tackle. If you practice your craft, you can lay a fly in front of fish that would have bolted out from a plastic or spoon plopped anywhere near your target. With some practice a fly is no more alarming than a butterfly landing in the bite zone. Even when you're getting refused you can have great success just irritate the fish enough to bite a fly. Anyway, 👍, nice video.

I agree that you can get more shots if you are a good with the long rod… however it is much easier to cast with conventional and you can always throw 10’ past and drag it to them. I think the close quarters/pressure of the cast/ difficulty in the cast itself when using a fly rod makes it much more challenging and fun than conventional
