Cool video. Loved the trout spey tip. Learning to spey cast isn't easy but it's not that hard either. Watch the Red's tutorial video! I landed my first tank on my spey rod here on Boxing Day! From what I gather, spey casting is a little harder to get the LONGER you've been single handed casting. I'd go out and just practice your anchors for 20 minutes. You'll get it and when you do it's REALLY fun! Fish On Dan! And Happy Birthday 🎉

Thanks Dave, I'm getting better at it...just need more practice. Happy New Year to you!!

@bradcastaneda 6 ай бұрын

Something that has helped me while I’ve been learning Trout Spey is to loop the running line onto each of your lower hand fingers so your running line isn’t in a huge loop downstream. Sometimes that tension is enough to kill the distance of a good cast because the running line is being pulled back by the current. Hope that makes sense.

Great tip, thank you!

Nice video and explanations! First of your videos I've seen. I was thinking this looked a lot like the Yakima canyon and sure enough! I fish there a lot too! It's nice to see how low the flows are for wading this time of year. Happy New Year!

FFD, just back home from a little vaca in Nicaragua. Can't wait to jump back out in the freezing cold, although I will probably wait for this week's front to pass through first. That rainbow you caught was great. Keep trying the Spey and don't get frustrated casting; it's a skill to learn like double hauling or anything else. And yeah, it's temping to overhead cast a Spey - but don't 😉. Get out here and I'll get you casting like a pro (even if I need to recruit a guide). ☮ from Idaho.

@FlyFishDan 7 ай бұрын

Same - was a good switch for me too.

@DanielDeVries-cd4pe 6 ай бұрын

Courtland is by far the best leaders and tippet I have used. Even noticed a big difference tying knots in cold weather as opposed to other brands. Knots sink in tighter and the line stays fluid casting at temps around 20deg.

@FlyFishDan 6 ай бұрын

I'm with you there, the leaders even have a different feel (soft and supple is the best way I can describe them...Lol) when you unwrap them!

There is a Scottish comedian called Bill Connelly who once said “it’s never the wrong weather - only the wrong clothes”. Love to get out in the snow, there is never anyone around but the fishing is usually dynamite. Great video!

I see you are always carrying two rods. What are they and why you chose those?

@FlyFishDan 6 ай бұрын

Hey Kevin - they are both my rods ( fishonrods.com ) One is a 5-weight and the other a trout spey. Typically I like to have two setups with me at all times, quick switch when I want to try something different. Cheers!
