Then got into fly fishing for trout, a close friend. Should me how to catch carp on a fly rod 🤪 , next up was Pike. Haven't turned back since 🤘😃

Enjoyed this Mark, watching from the UK and didn't know much about Rainy Lake. It looks like an awesome fishery.

Great vid! Digging the norther pike and smallie fly action!! Got a question tho, is there any specific reason you opt to use a loop knot on your titanium tippet to attach the fly versus using a snap?

[@newflyfisher]

good question. the open loop or non-slip mono knot is ideal for flies that "move" because the knot does not impede the action of the fly when moving in the water. snaps can work and some people like them. unfortunately we've seen snaps bend or break when large pike take the fly. however, there are better quality snaps on the market these days and you should try them out. if they are "open" enough, then they should allow free movement for the fly
