When fishing with the fly rod my friend . When you have a FISH ON.. use you right hand index finger to hold your line when you set the hook. Then when it’s hooked let’s go to get the line tight to the reel then start reeling while hover that index finger over the line as well holding the pole brother!! Just my tip I use when I go fly fishing. Maybe it should help
Dude davey gravy has come such a long way with being comfortable in front of the camera. It’s so fun seeing in get so excited in the videos and communicate with the audience!
@@fishingwithsmallsexcept Norm. Can you confirm or deny my theory that he forgot he's RUclips login. Or my other theory that he has a non compete with Googan and can't post for a certain amount of time? I really don't care either way because you three are hilarious. Also don't buy the time share.
so just a tip: when you are retrieving your fly. keep some of the line pinned in your casting hand. (I usually just pin it down with my pointer finger)and pull it in with your non casting hand. idk if that makes sense. but instead of reeling it in. you pull in your lure . then reel in if you catch a fish. it is tons of fun when you get the gang of it. dont give up on it yet. ive been fly fiahing since i was like 8. and it does get easier
This comment! I keep the float line pinned with my casting pointer finger, I also don’t use the reel unless I have a fish pull all of my loose line out and I control the drag with pressure from my reeling hand. I haven’t fly fished in a long time but I want to get back into it.
when casting stop the rod at 10 and 2 and pinch the line with your index finger on your rod hand to help with line control. bass fishing on the fly is a blast in fact anything caught on a fly rod is so much more enjoyable than regular tackle.
This. 👆the only thing I might add to this is don’t be so concererned about your reel. If you keep it pinched with your right index finger. The fish will run out to your reel. Or you’ll retrieve the fish by pulling the line behind your right index finger that’s so your progress is captured. Fly is so satisfying when you get a good hook set.
that intro had me dyeing!!! yall are so funny please more videos with you three and norm!! we need it yall could do anything and it would be entertaining. i think you should go ride atvs to a fishing spot that would be cool
Love you boys trying out the fly rods. If you ever want to outfish anyone for anything (panfish, trout, bass in winter, etc) the most effective thing to do is fly fish with an indicator and a ‘balanced leech’ fly. Outfished my buddy for crappie by catching 23 fish while he only caught one trying different traditional crappie lures. I’ve also caught 5 pound largies on them in the winter, size 12 tiny little leeches.
Buckle up everyone, Smalls is about to LEVEL UP this channel! This is single-handedly the best thing to hit the internet since the legendary "Charlie bit my finger". Get ready for greatness folks!
Good job, those were sweet blowups on the frog! The biggest thing that will help now that you've got the casting down is using your index finger of your right hand to guide the line during the retrieve and if you get a bite use that finger to squeeze the line against the rod, modulating the pressure if you need to, like drag would. Then when you are bringing the fish in you pull line with the left hand then hold with the right finger to allow you to pull more line. Hope you get out again with the boys, I bet a striper on a fly rod would be crazy haha
You know it's going to be a good time when you have these three going fishing, congrats on getting Davey casting something besides a Zepco, he is the Legend. Congratulations Smalls on catching with a Fly Rod. 🎣
Yea yea my kinda of fishing…madness uncertainty and danger😂😂 love the vid and keep on fishing my mans, it’s happening for ya and we are all here for the ride👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This was hard to watch, but also the best thing to see. Seems like you guys had a blast. Fly fishing and fly tying are so fun. Catching a 10lb carp on a rod made for trout no more than 18" is unreal. Catching fish with your creations is twice as satisfying. Being able to customize baits to the finest details is game-changing. And flies produce insane numbers of fish. I want you guys to experience that. Tenkara is easy, effective, versitile, and you can fish a lot like you would with conventional gear. Streamers, poppers, jigs. The presentation is super subtle. Belgian cast and bow-and-arrow are the only casts you really need, and you can learn them in 10 seconds. Fly casting isn't any harder than casting a baitcaster, and tenkara is easier than either. Good entry point to fly fishing. Sorry for the book, thanks for the video, and I hope this helps someone. High quality, low budget recommendations below. Angler Dream 12ft tenkara rod $60, size 3.5 level line(years worth) $17, 5x tippet $7-$15, foam line holder $1.50 Maxcatch 1wt-4wt $60-70, Angler Dream fly reel $30 preloaded. Bass Pro Shop sells a St Croix Mojo Bass 9wt fly rod/reel combo for $270
That was my thought but honestly never seen one grow to that size. So many cool fish down south. Mn boy myself so I just get tortured by shitty regs and weather
What's up guys I have to say the three guys in this video are by far my favorite RUclips fishing group. Yalls videos really make my days so so much brighter any time y'all feel like coming to good old Tennessee middle Tennessee to be exact I'd love to show y'all a few places to catch the fat Sally's it would be cool as crap to fish with either one of y'all mainly Davey lol thanks for doing everything yall do keep it up
Will give some tips. Casting is something to watch some videos on. Mad River outfitters is the best option. For the fighting real quick tip is when your done casting put the line under your finger on your rod hand and pull the line in with your off hand.
Also google if there is a fly shop in your area and please make a video of going in there and getting the low down from some experts. Awesome collab to show off a local business
Awesome video SMALLS. As you strip you line in hold line with your pointer finger and use it like a brake but the line you strip in just lays on ground The fish you didn’t know was a Golden shiner aka( Bass candy). Always a great time and a lot of fun when Smalls, Davey and Ayo get together. Yall stay safe and Smalls keep doing what you do. Keep’em coming
@@fishingwithsmalls You did really good for being your first fly fishing. It does take some time to get use to it but it is a lot of fun I like catching crappie on fly rod I use just a small hook and a jig skirt. I made some flies out of yarn made some out of deer hair too . Tying your own flies and then catching a fish on it is a great feeling.. But really enjoy your videos and you keep it all real. Just keep doing what you do..
Love to see Smalls getting sponsors. You and AYO do the best ads. I hope you can quit your day job and be an entertainer. You are made for it. Great personality, funny and always likeable.
You pretty much have the technique down. With practice you will get smooth with it. Fly fishing is fun. Especially is salt water. Great video. Love from Texas. 🤠👍🇨🇱
Smalls ,AYO, Davey Gravey don't get no better than that love your channel Smalls you a cool dude would love to hang out with you guys that's on my bucket list keep on rocking on
Nice to see you all try try out fly fishing. It's definitely addicting. I still fish spin/casters as well but fly rods are a good tool to have in the box.
Make sure your line is running out of the front of the reel up by the rod. It looks like you and Gravy had your line coming from the bottom behind that metal cage.
As a fly fisherwoman who fly fishes for bass all the time, this was very entertaining 😁Let me pitch you a video idea: fly fishing for peacock bass, LM bass and various species in Florida.

It's a shiner
The fish was a Willd shiner wild golden shiner
when you have a fish on, from what i can tell you use your right hand to hold you line while pulling the line in with your left hand
Smalls you , ayo, Davy, and norm should form group and become the Amp of fishing yall are funny af

Dude davey gravy has come such a long way with being comfortable in front of the camera. It’s so fun seeing in get so excited in the videos and communicate with the audience!
That mystery fish from Walmart was a giant shiner, I think.
WHEN THE WHOLE GANG UPLOADS THE SAME DAY WOOOOOOOOO 🔥🔥🔥
You know its going to be a good-day
No doubt!
@@fishingwithsmallsexcept Norm. Can you confirm or deny my theory that he forgot he's RUclips login. Or my other theory that he has a non compete with Googan and can't post for a certain amount of time?

I don't see a new video from Ayo? I like his vids lol. I like the whole gangs vids
Does Davey have a channel ?

My fav group of non-caloric challenged people...I feel at home. Your mystery fish was a large Shiner, a big one.

It's crazy seeing bass crush tiny flies.
Smalls you are awesome for learning to fly fish! I have a old fly rod and I am going to dust it off and giver a try. Keep up the good work Smalls.
Good job Smalls. I love the content you put out, you keep it real. Keep up the fun....

Good to see ya, Smalls! Keep it up!
Couldn’t be happier opening up my RUclips to watch a new smalls video!! LETS GOOOOO
This was super fun to watch. Smalls knowledge of fishing is amazing. Kinda guy I would want to learn from.
There's just something so satisfying about catching a fish of any size on the fly. Even 2 oz bluegill feels like an accomplishment!
Quickly becoming one of my favourite YT channels. Keep it up, Smalls!
Buckle up everyone, Smalls is about to LEVEL UP this channel! This is single-handedly the best thing to hit the internet since the legendary "Charlie bit my finger". Get ready for greatness folks!

Davy Gravy single handedly makes a good video
Idea for vid. Biggest catfish 1v1v1, with homemade bait from the grocery store?
Looked like a golden shiner
Never caught one personally, but that'd be my guess too.
Ayo better watch out. Smalls be putting out bangers
Alligator snapping turtle catch and cook? I say yes! My family at the 35lber and it was gooood , can you tell I was raised in Florida ?😊

Keep at it. I remember when I picked up my first fly rod from academy. I fell in love with the challenge of learning to cast the thing
Gravy has to have that hat made into his trademark . Love the vids. Awesome Hat Davey!

Turtle catch and cook would be AWESOME!

I love fly fishing on the river! Haven’t used a fly in a LONG time! Yall gonna make me wanna dust off my fly rod 😄

Make sure your line is running out of the front of the reel up by the rod. It looks like you and Gravy had your line coming from the bottom behind that metal cage.
Love me some Gravyyyyyy

I admire the care in daveys eyes as he asks to be on a separate bank
Man I have lines that are more than 100$. Great work.
To be fair, those cricket rods are amazing. That bighorn was my first fly rod, but cabellas brand.
Yessir wowza your channel is growing so fast now!
Y’all are too cool
I would watch this again just to listen to you guys shop in BP again.
A 20lb carp on fly gear would be an awesome fight!! Fun video!
For sure!!
Zebco with a fly....you go davey
Use a water bobber and u can cast flies the any rod & reel
Love daveys expressions
