Fifteen pound test is a lot and could result in a broken rod.
I'd use a simple piece of flourocarbon 6-8 feet long in 8 lb or so.
The less weight you're castinn the better. If you can get away from...
I've got a sit inside, but no mobility problems. Getting in and out is still tricky when the bank is steep. Still, it is light, easy to paddle, can handle moderate whitewater, and I can lift it on...

Compared to a float tube, kayaks have...
I was about 12 years old, which would have been around 1954. I had a fly tying kit I got for my birthday, a 9' fiberglass rod, level line, automatic reel, and a leader that consisted of a piece of...
Great pictures!
So, that's what brooks in the East look like, the ones that gave eastern brooks their name. Quite different from the high lakes where they like to live here in California.

The most important trout fishing river in the Fresno area in winter is the Kings. The kings River is open all winter both above and below Pine flat Reservoir, , but bear in mind that much of it is...
