Rio sells a premade leader with a light shock gum section already in it.

morneb:
It is a really good idea to go ahead and become accustomed to fishing with one of the name brand companies. My personal preference is for an American made rod like a Sage, Loomis, Scott,...
Assension bay bonefish. permit, tarpon, snook etc. Or you can go to Cozemel bonefish club and make a day trip.

"All" of the factors that make a good distance caster are applied to good accuracy casting.
However in accuracy casting the casting plane becomes more of a factor than in distance.
Joan Wulff...
Most likely the demonstration you saw was with Joe Humpreys at one of te shows. He does a "distance" bow and arrow cast for the crowd However the cast is really not meant for distance. It is meant to...
Basically you reel in until you have little more than the leader out of the rod tip. Hold the fly in your hand by the "bend" of the hook. Point the rod at the target. Pull on the fly so that it bends...
I've been the coach of the USA youth fly fishing team now since 1998. I officially reitred this year since my two boys are now 10 and 8 and I'd like to spend my summers totally with them in lieu of...
Jason is one of the finest and most knowledgeable teachers in the country. You will have a great day with him.

Absolutely zero performance difference in the 4 piece vs 2 piece. In fact the rod that I set the casting record in the ESPN Great Outdoor Games with was a 4 piece.

Sorry Ed I thought it was John Ford. I am looking forward to meeting everyone in PA this year. I hope that TU will take the chance to get involved. I grew up being conservation minded. This is a real...
Mr Ford:
I am truely excited by the opportunity that State College PA is offering for young adults here in the USA. It is a chance of a lifetime for young people who are interested in fly fishing....
Actually "any" youth between the ages of 14 and 19 can be elegible for the team. You must be 18 or under as of January 1st 2007. If you turn 19 after Jan 1 2007 you are still capable of being...
A squirrel fly. :lol:
Well I've heard stories but never actually witnessed anything that would lead me to beleive that browns actually would take a squirrel here. I've tried the mice pattern...
Gringo:
We get the same sort of thing except with gray squirrels.
Once again 0%, none, nadda, of the browns in the Little Red are stocked unless they are something like 40 years old. Browns...
What? That is the funniest thing I've every heard. :lol: In fact the fish in the Little Red are 100% wild fish. The Little Red has not had a brown trout stocked in for nearly 40 years. The last...
I talked with Joe last night about the World Championships in PA this year. He's ready to come back here and give it another shot.
Norm McClean might be haunted by waters but Joe is haunted by the...
Doug:
By the way if you have an interest in seeing more of those type shows you might contact Barrett Productions and tell them you enjoyed the show. Joe does not have many years left in him so we...
Rawthumb:
Really even though it is at night you still have some available light to see. I very rarely use a light of any kind since it drastically puts off the fish.
A couple of summer ago I...
Doug:
I was the guide on that show. Joe was fishing a black sculpin pattern but at night as long as it imitates a bait fish it really does not matter.
Different areas of the 3 main rivers here...
FG:
If the marble and the bowling ball are made of the exact same stuff then they will hit at the same time. So did the feather and the wrench on the moon. ;)
The thing about "full" sink lines...
FG:
Don't be afraid of casting a high line weight for sinking lines. In fact I spent last week casting a T-400 on a 7 weight for peacock bass.

Fly goddess:
Larger fly lines have the capability to sink faster than lower weight fly lines. You'd think it would be the same since they are both round and made of the same material. However...
All respect due to Lefty but Tom is both a better caster and a better teacher by far. Tom has to be one of the most knowledgeable casting teachers I've ever known.
I'd definately recommend his...
Czech nymphing, Polish nymphing, and Spanish nymphing styles are all loosly connected to the style of nymphing Joe Humphreys is doing in his video.
The major exception with the Polish / Czech...
I can't believe no one got this one....
By throwing your back cast abnormally high you are basically creating a concave path in your line path. A bigger bass bug will have a tendancy to pull the...
