    Do you travel a lot? Or maybe live in an apartment with limited space? Fenwick's Method series travel rods give you the option you create four rods! Just swap ...more out the mid sections with the actions and tapers labeled on the provided rod sections and create the rod you need for your situation! Then break it down throw it in the car and get to class! (in my situation)

    3. TheDirtyPelican 0
      I tie my own so I get to choose the size and I throw them on about a 6 size hook to get the bass and the big bluegill. That's te best way to do it IMO.
    4. Ryan Z 0
      I've been using a small yellow Boogle bug popper and the bass and sunfish kill it @TheDirtyPelican
    5. TheDirtyPelican 0

    If your the guy that appreciates hand painted lures, or the guy who loves American made. Then go get yourself a swales crank bait. You'll love catching fish ...more even more when you know someone spent their own time to make it for. (custom colors) @swaleslures on instagram

      Glad I could help bud! Honestly though, unless you've got a spot where carp are fed regularly, they are TOUGH to get to bite on the fly

      Hand tied tapered (which has knots but you tie them yourself) now I know I just covered a lot at one time, but I'll be more than happy to answer any questions ...more you have bud

      Leader is another section of thin line called your tippet, I like fluoro when throwing streamers. And lastly is your fly. Leaders come in a few varieties, but the ...more most common are knotless tapered and

      You produce action to your flies by moving your fly line, and you move the fly according to what type of fly it is, poppers pop, foam spiders skate on the surface, ...more streamers get stripped along etc.
    10. Chris Skinner 0
      Ability of the fly materials to absorb water (think of it like oil and water not mixing) this coating of fly floatant won't mix with the water and so causes ...more the fly to wick water rather than absorb it

      If you've got crawfish, brown and olive are good ones, but other colors work as well, pick colors for flies just like you would for bass lures, same principles ...more apply, now you can use surface flies
    14. Chris Skinner 0
      You basically want to match your fly to the food sources in the water, if you've got shad, olive and white or just white with some flash work well, if you've ...more got sunnies, olive or chartreuse are good

      @Cowboy713 honestly that was my plan was to try and get a carp on a fly rod haha and catfish roll top water for flies like crazy in some of the places I fish
    16. Chris Skinner 0
      That said, none of those species really hit on dry flies besides small bass, sunfish, and trout. You'll want to use streamers for the most part, wooly Buggers ...more are a good start along with clousers.
    17. Chris Skinner 0
      Ok living in Texas your key species are bass and sunfish, unless you wanna try saltwater, or you come to the Guad for trout, or you're like me and wanna chase ...more oddballs on the fly like carp and catfish
