I started fly fishing about 30 years ago. It was pretty much all self taught by watching other fishermen and asking the occasional question. I watch your videos faithfully and learn something new and informative on every one. I just watched this latest one on sinking tips and sinking lines and it has changed everything for me - from techniques to attitudes and understanding. I didn't realize how ignorant I was. The worst part of relying on asking questions of strangers is that often you don't know what questions to ask. You just answered all my questions, even the ones I didn't know to ask. Now I just can't wait for the ice to be off and I can apply my newfound knowledge. Thank you very much - keep. up the good work.

Thanks, Brian. I have a sinking fly line, but it's not a very common type of line here in New Zealand. So I didn't know how to fish with this line. I tried to cast across the river, leave it to swing, and then retrieve the streamer up the current. I've never caught a fish, only snagged the bottom of the river. Now, I figured out that I did everything wrong :D

Greetings from czech republic. Thank you very much for this video, it is very helpful. I would really love to gain insight into sinking lines. I would like to ask about micro/trout-skagit lines. For example OPST makes Commando groove Intermediate Heads, Scientific Anglers made Spey Lite Skagit Intermediate Heads/Integrated Lines. These heads/lines should be combined with various types of sinking tips... What is a diference between "standard sinking lines" (full sinker, sinking head or sinking tip) and these single hand micro/trout skagit heads? Are these skagit heads used just for swinging flies across and downstream in comparison to "standard sinking lines" which acording to this vidos should be used for fishing upstream with active retrieve? According what should I decided when to swing a fly downstream or when fish it upstream with active retrieve? I hope that these questions make sense...:) Cheers. Andrew.

This was really great! I learned a lot. I often wade fish small streams and wander far from the car so carrying multiple rods is a pain. 5 wt 9 ft. I could buy a second spool, in fact I guess that is the best answer. But I also have a sinking leader I sometimes use (with a way too long leader, will tie on a much shorter one tomorrow!) with my floating line. Switch between dry, dry dropper, sinking leader with small streamers. Does that make sense or is that just such a kluge it makes little sense?

hi there. i understand this video has been out for a while, hopefully you can still answer my question. you made a comment that once a sinking line is stripped, the sinking line stops sinking. my question is, does a sinking line begin to stop sinking once river current moves the line too. i will admit that i was one of those fly anglers who wouldn't promote sinking lines in any river capacity. Since watching you and Kelly talk about the use of sinking lines in rivers and streams, i have totally changed my mind set. Thank you guys!

If I don't have the thick line to build a leader, can I just cut off the middle 4' of a 9' tapered leader to make it a 5' leader? Cutting it out from the middle should keep a thick butt section and the desired tippet size, or would that not work?

I remember that few years ago high end fly line could be purchased for around 65-70 USD which was more acceptable. Now it is around 100 USD for good line which is slowly reaching the level of the absurd. No matter how good particular fly line is it is still only the piece of the plastic laundry string.

Yes I don’t loop it on, I cut the loop and tie it on to the sink tip.

Surprised Brian uses mono (which floats) instead of fluoro (neutral or sinks) considering in his discussion one of his reasons for using short leaders is to keep the fly down

Feel free to e-mail him or give him a call at the shop for further clarification. He'll be happy to help. Thanks.

I would give equal credit to Bob Popovics. He is just as important to fly fishing as Kelly imo.
