  • While fishing with Phil Rowley at Wabamun Lake in Alberta for walleye, he spent some time showing us how to rig up a proper indicator setup for lake fly fishing. With this setup, you can adjust your depth more precisely and the bites would be more frequent!

    I had been fly fishing without indicator for years but I recently found out is lots of fun and the most productive if you just want to catch fish and chroronomy presentation if perfect. Can’t wait until I use quick realest indicator. Thanks great rig setup.

      Yeah for sure, it’s basically a glorified bobber setup and it is so effective when it comes to presenting the fly at the exact depth you want.

    Something simple. Brass swivels catch more fish than dark ones for me. It’s got to be the flash.

    You said you prefer the slip indicator peg to be on the fly side of the line, but didn't say why. Why that preference, what's the difference?

    • @jakeescaravage8421
      @jakeescaravage8421 3 года назад

      If you lose you fly or tippet breaks the peg prevents the indicator from going through the swivel. If you do it the other way the hole in the Indy is big enough to float away..
      Indicator, swivel, fly.

      YES!! this was not well done. Too little attention to all the parts and process.

    I never fish with an indicator and have just as much luck as those that do. Much less effort to drop everything off the side of the boat.

    Thick line sinks faster than thin phil because its heavier

    • @FishingwithRod
      @FishingwithRod  4 года назад +4

      Actually thicker line sinks more slowly than thinner line, because the surface area is larger, creating more resistance in the water, and the density is lower.

    • @ianwagner8139
      @ianwagner8139 4 года назад

      Okay Rodney take a piece of 20 lb and a piece of 4 lb the same size drop it in picture of water. 30 years ago there was a study on trolling also that conferred heavy mono swims deeper than light mono

    • @FishingwithRod
      @FishingwithRod  4 года назад +5

      Ian Wagner Monofilament line is neutrally buoyant. When you place it on top of the water without anything tied onto it, it floats.
      When you tie a small weight, for example a bead headed fly, to a piece of 4lb test mono and a piece of 12lb test mono, the 4lb will be sunk down faster than the 12lb for a few reasons. For one, the thinner line has less resistance in the water so would travel down faster. Two, the density of the thinner line is higher than the thicker line. Three, the small fly is heavy enough to pull down the 4lb test, and more likely than not it won’t even sink the 12lb line because there isn’t enough weight to counter-act the high buoyancy of the 12lb line.

    • @ianwagner8139
      @ianwagner8139 4 года назад

      This is not the case rod surface tension is why it floats after it is broken heavy mono sinks way faster as I said test it in a bowl of water

    • @skorflyfishing

      @@ianwagner8139 Add a weighted fly. The fly being the heaviest part is slowed by the water friction. I have done this in a swimming pool. If you are just comparing a length of line you may be correct. but in a working situation, the thinner line allows the weighted fly to sink faster.
