Driftstone Fly Fishing with Eric Leslie

Ай бұрын

Flys that got 'em: Frenchie and Black Leech
I've been working like crazy and the new raft has been purchased. In a few more weeks, I'll be cutting that back/out and I'll be back to making videos full time! Thanks everyone for your support and patience!

Frenchie for the win!! I may need to purchase some more from you soon. I have been absolutely hammering rainbows at my local river with your Frenchie and even a really nice size brown on it as well. Great Video once again Eric.

I was there in october when it was dusty and dry, super cool to see the same river so green and vibrant

October can be another great time of year to be down there. Lots of hatches and it can rain too. Always fun down there

I highly recommend Driftstone flies! I have caught many fish on Eric's flies. My personal fave are his thin mints but if he offers it, it can catch trout.

How you liking the non-euro specific 10ft 4wt? I'm looking to follow suit but not sure what make and model I want to go with or go traditional and make euro stuff work or go euro and make traditional stuff work.

That’s a big no no in the fly fishing community. It’s called spot burning.

So if you fish the Mississippi river you cant say its the mississippi because thats “spot burning”? Lame

There is no single such thing as "Holy Water". Any water that fishes well is "Holy Water". OMG! Eurodorking using a bobber? Using a net on a small fish? For God's sake, don't fall in!
