Tying a Black Booby and Fishing The Washing Line Method

[@stefg9161]

Like the combination of tying the fly and actually fishing it. Where were you fishing.

Nice video Danny ...are you selling any ? What was the floating line you were using? Thanks for your contribution matey

[@DannyLeitch]

Thanks John appreciate your nice comments. I have a big order going out this week so after that I’m free to tie you up some. Contact me direct at [e-mail] and let me know what you are after. Oh and the line is an Airflo superflo. Thanks again.

[@DannyLeitch]

Hi Kyle, thanks for liking my video. The reel is an old Greys GRXi, nothing fancy but it does the job. Tight lines 🎣

Looks a nice water where are you

[@nenadisailovic2481]

Nice fishing🎣🎣....can you tell us what kind of rod you use and how set up your rod...💪

[@DannyLeitch]

Thanks! I was using a Greys GRXI 9’6 #7 with a 15 foot leader with the flies evenly spaced 5 foot intervals. Hope this helps. Tight lines!

[@fiestamans]

Excellent thanks. What rod and wt are you using

[@DannyLeitch]

Thanks for watching. The rod is a Greys GRXI 7# tight lines 👍

[@hankvana2149]

Hi Danny! What type of rod (length, weight and action) would you recommend for fishing a washing line?

[@DannyLeitch]

The rod I’m using in the video is a 9ft 6” Greys GRXI 7# you could try using a slightly longer rod (perhaps 10ft) as you will probably have quite a long leader/tippet and that extra length will aid in getting the flies to turn over easier. As far as action goes it doesn’t really matter as long as it suits you and the way you cast. I hope this helps and thanks for watching! Tight lines 👍
