Fly Fishing Tips & Techniques
Tips on Fly Fishing
There are thousands of live-bait anglers, who are excellent
sportsmen, but the fly fisherman can practice better
conservation from the beginning.
Basically, fly fishing is not only one of the fastest growing
sports; it is one of the foremost forms of conserving natural
resources as well as providing aquatic recreation.
Fly fishing is, very simple when three things are right: you
must have a suitable rod; you must get a line to match it; and
you must learn correct casting technique.
For people who wish to know some tips on fly fishing, here is a
list of some pointers that could help anglers harness their fly
fishing skills:
1. Material of the rod
For one of moderate means, and especially for the beginners,
hollow glass is advised since it will require less care than
bamboo and will not take a set if improperly handled or stored.
2. Line
Your fly casting skill will not progress with a mismatched rod
and line. About 99 times in 100, the troubled fly caster has a
line much too light to bring out the action of his rod.
That is why it is important to know that on any given rod, the
fly fisherman should use the same size line for anything from
small trout and bluegills up to the largest sea fish.
In choosing the size line, anglers should get a C level, an
HCH
double-taper, or a GBF three-diameter. This choice is based on
the fact that a high percentage of fly rods bought nowadays are
hollow glass, and that a great majority of these works best with
lines of those sizes, almost regardless of lengths or weights.
3. The correct casting technique
In casting, it is important to get about 20 feet of line out
front. Anglers should always remember to cast a straight line.
Avoid jerky movements even if it is on a faster mode in order to
do so.
Best of all, the angler should be relaxed because taunt muscles
will ruin his casting.
Boiled down, there should be no reason why you should not learn
the fundamental principles just as easily as those who now enjoy
fly fishing.
Probably, the best and surest way to learn to cast successfully
is to spend a day on the stream with some fisherman who is a
competent caster.
Lessons learned on the stream are the best tips you can acquire
anywhere in your quest for learning fly fishing.
