Hi Brain very informative about fly lines , but I have a question about a Sunray fly line which I got in April this year have used about 10 trips to the lake the last time I used it on the retrieve I could hear the line passing over my finger , the line feels as if it has dried out , would the noise travel down the line and would it be why I am blanking, regards John Michael

Love your channel and will support your fly shop as much as possible. Someone else said it perfectly, you really are the Bob Ross of fly fishing.

Hello from British Columbia Canada. As a newbie fly tier I just wanted to say I love your tutorials. I learn a ton and can answer questions when my Grandson asks me. Not many of us women fly tiers around me but I'm beginning to see a few more out fishing which is great.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks so much for being here. Stay tuned though as women are the new hot topic in fly fishing. They have arrived.

[@linyarin]

Interesting about the development of beads. I recall, when I used to tie flies in the early 1980's, using gold beads on certain nymphs so well before Orvis made it popular.

You are the channel that got me into fly fishing, and later fly tying.

I don’t know if I’m just that ignorant or if this channel is just that good but I learn something new every video, sometimes even if I already saw the video. Either way love you guys

In places like the Limay River mouth, in Patagonia, where you have to cast very far and get deep really fast, most ppl use beadheads or weighted streamers, even articulated ones. And you see rods from 10ft #6 to spey rigs. Great stuff, and we all consider it fly fishing, of course. Cheers!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

[@keithnavarro2930]

Awesome. Thank you. Another one of your videos saved for future reference.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Thanks so much!

[@farmerbob4554]

Good information Brian. On the dry dropper question is the reason that it’s not efficient to get the rig to cast properly with a large load as the terminal tackle? I agree with that take fishing moving water but on still water I can get a dry dropper rig to turn over with 4-5’ between the dry and first fly if using tandem nymphs under a good sized foam hopper. No split shot though and that might make all the difference.

I used to always play the fish in the hand, unless it was a bigger fish or say Pike etc... But I treated myself to a Hardy rod and reel last year and decided to try and play them all off the reel, otherwise what's the point in spending loads and having fancy drag systems etc... So the last 20 or 30 Rainbows and Bigger browns I've had on my Stillwater setup, I've played everything off the reel and drag. I'm really enjoying fishing like this, and wished I'd done it years ago.

[@WilliamFurby]

Another reason to use an indicator instead of a dry fly is local regulations. I live in Alaska and we have highly regulated waters. In most of the water I fish we are only allowed to use one fly. So, dry droppers or multiple nymph/wet fly rigs cannot be used.

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Bingo! Great one.

[@ronaldfisher222]

Nice explanations

[@Madriveroutfitters]

[@codyfullmer24]

Have you come out with the new video you mention at about 20:20 of this video ?

Not sure on that. You'd have to check with Brian directly through the shop. You can e-mail him or call him and he'll be happy to help. Thanks.

Whiteboard!!!

[@Madriveroutfitters]

It’s actually a wheat board. Whiteboards are not as healthy.

[@danielashjazadeh6165]

What is that rod? Been wondering for a long time😅

[@Madriveroutfitters]

Brian says it's a TFO Lefty Kreh Instructor Rod that Lefty gave him many years ago. He uses it for teaching and for demos but not for fishing.

@@Madriveroutfitters thanks I live in iowa but I might go up there for the holidays. Since I moved to iowa there aren't that many trout streams so if I go up I will pick up some tying material for smallmouth. And if I don't go up there I will probably just order some
