Jake's book is pretty phenomenal. Probably in the top 2 in my library. Id like to get to fish with him some day.

[@TimCammisa]

Great to know, Brad, and ABSOLUTELY book a trip with him...you will love the experience of fishing with one of today's best anglers. Tim www.troutandfeather.com

[@Brep17]

Love the video!

[@oldsmugglerflyfishing]

Great information!

[@lionsbluewhite]

Tim, I hope you have some footage of your fishing trip to share with us?!🙏🏻

[@blackflagoutdoors]

Love the hat. Have one I rep daily ♥️

[@jimhagan4527]

Great video!

[@TimCammisa]

Thanks so much, James, Jake did a great job in this one. We have another video to still be released...stay tuned! Tim www.troutandfeather.com

[@toddgray6274]

Fun video. Thx. Smallies are my favorite fish to chase

[@TimCammisa]

They are an addiction, aren't they?! Thanks for the kind words. Tim www.troutandfeather.com

[@JonKelso-xk7ct]

Jake knows his stuff as well as anyone. It’s that simple

[@TimCammisa]

For sure, you've fished with him in the past? www.troutandfeather.com/

[@costelpopa36]

At 2:36, there is no SA Bass Bug Line in 5wt, the smallest one that it can go is 6wt. Am I missing something from this floating summer setup?

[@TimCammisa]

Thanks for checking on that, and I'll see if Jake has a current recommendation. Once I hear back, I'll reply again to your comment. Tim

[@roderickburke700]

Yeah, that's true. Where does he get an SA Bass 5wt fly line? They don't make them!

[@johnathanoneal6463]

I’m needing some guidance. What fly line should I use for throwing streamer’s when large mouth bass fishing in ponds?

[@jimlord3023]

I don’t really buy that diagram where they show this giant U when you are fishing with a sink tip line. I think it’s an extreme example that only occurs with a very buoyant fly and a long wait before the retrieve. Actually, the shape of the U is infinitely variable. Plus, if you retrieve quickly (which most everyone does), there is very little U, even with a heavily weighted tip.

[@NDFlyFisher]

Is this information based on fishing in rivers and streams? Or does it apply to fly fishing for smallies in lakes too? I fish only in lakes for smallies.

[@fluxcapacitor05]

full sinking 100%. This guy is a river guide. You are going to spend WAY more time fishing using a full sink. If I had anything to suggest as far as which line to use, you can't go wrong with Teeny. I need to edit this: I used nothing but floating line for 16 years and early this month I used full sinking for the first time fishing the white run in Texas. Totally blew me away. You don't normally think about efficiency in terms of line spent in the fishing zone, but if I had to guess it doubled. Plus, presentations look better too at depth. The guy in this video likely doesn't fish beyond 8-10ft or else his disposition on sinking lines would quickly change. That and his diagram showing the bowing effect of sinking lines is entirely fly dependent. If you use the fly selection this guy is using, which is probably unweighted streamers, it is more likely to bow. Put a #2 - 1/0 clouser on and it's a complete different game all together -- your line is actually more in tune and more sensitive. It's the opposite of what this guy is saying.

[@TimCammisa]

Some of the content is applicable to both, which information are you curious about? Jake mainly guides in rivers, hence we were gearing the video in that direction. Thanks! Tim www.troutandfeather.com

[@user-zm1sy9ub5u]

What leader does Jake use with the intermediate lines?

[@TimCammisa]

You'll have to reach out to Jake for that one! Tim www.troutandfeather.com
