    Thank you! I sure needed this as I just started fly fishing and I’m handicapped so river romping is out of the question!

    Good information Phil. I still water fish a lot and this video provided some new information. I’ll try it!

    We’ve been doing this in Tasmania for well over ten years...we used a specially made sea anchor to slow the boat down drifting in the wind. Very deadly method. We use tungsten beadhead nymphs...of course the secret is in the dubbing material.

    Hi phil. Love all your vidos. Did I miss where you put the blob in relation to the point fly? In your instructional video you only setup a leech. Did you change this during filming??

    I would like to add the "Look Away" to the strike indicator arsenal. When things are slow and you have been staring at the indicator for a long time, simply look away for a few seconds and a fish is sure to strike. Realization that a fish has taken your fly is usually preceded by a comment like, "Hey, where'd my indicator go?" When you hear those words come out of your mouth, set the hook!

    • @Eclipse1988
      @Eclipse1988 18 дней назад

      Lol yeah, either that or wrap the line around the tip of your rod, and then stop to untangle it... instant strike 😂😂

    Hey just wondering, how much leader do you use between the swivel and fly? And are you setting your depth to where the swivel is? Or to where the fly is ?

  • @markmcmyn8967

    Quite a few anglers never retrieve a indicator and fly rig. I caught more fish when I started to make slow inch pulls.Quartering out to the side of the boat and letting the fly swing in is good. Wind drifting a float tube with a floating line and indicator is deadly.I believe it is about as slow as you can winddrift, as 2/3 of your body is below the surface and acts as a ballast.

    Do you use split shot? If so what size? Thank you

    Can I use a woolybugger instead of a balanced leech?

    Have you tried this technique on walleyes?

  • @sauce264
    @sauce264 2 года назад

    Does this technique also work well from the bank of a lake ?

    • @newflyfisher
      @newflyfisher  2 года назад +1

      Should do yes. If you can cast it

    Can you show how to set the depth of your fly when using an indicator?

    • @newflyfisher
      @newflyfisher  3 года назад +1

      Phil, the best method I know is to use your forceps. First, set your indicator to what you think the depth is....then clamp your forceps to the fly hook, then slowly lower the fly and forceps over the side of the boat. You want your indicator to be within a foot of the surface approximately which means your fly will be within a foot of the bottom. Adjust your indicator so it is just a foot below the surface. Hope that makes sense
