Do you ever swing two flies at once?
When you guy say “float” are you stoping and holding up in different areas or are you truly drifted key spots and working it similar to stripers. Thanks and just trying this out this year on the fly....
Floated a few hours this morning. Didn’t see any shad floating down but did see one boat pull a few so they are there. We were targeting stripers and stuck a few schoolies for the kids to reel in....
Figured I would try one out but prefer to pick up used. Anyone have one? Want to start fishing the truckee more.
Thanks!
So what do we do beside give up and move? I would be gone in a heartbeat but family is nearby.
I grew up fishing the American 100+ days a year with my dad and cant count how many hours I’ve...
Looking for something for my 7 year old to have his own rod/reel. He's pretty good about usuing my rods but i want something i can walk away from and let him fish without worry too much about my...
Are they still made? having trouble finding them. Was in both shops in Sacramento and no luck and having trouble finding them online as well. I found a few places but they sort of look like a...
Great report and awesome photos as usual! What weight rod and line are you throwing the Jumbo Poledancers with? I've only used the mediums which i love throwing with a 9 weight with a twisted...
Thanks guys. We hit up snug harbor west of hog back but fishing in there was terrible to my surprise. Ended up hitting the rock walls and had good action on small bass. My son had a ton of fun and...
Looking for another Sage quality 4 weight if someone has one they are willing to part with.
Thanks.
All,
Looking to get out this week with two of my boys (age 7 and 4) and looking for recommendations on any areas that would produce action to keep them interested for an hour or two? Size is of...
Looking for a quality 4 weight, something like the sage One. Have a float trip in Idaho and leaving next Friday so thought it would be nice to have a 4 weight on the trip.
Thanks.
Tried to go for early morning stripers this week to find Howe ave is still closed. Where else is there to launch mid river? Gristmill it? Or run up from Discovery? Thanks
I have a barely used Patagonia sling pack for sale. Used it for one trip in Idaho and prefer a full vest. Bought at kienes. $65 bucks shipped or local pickup in Sacramento. It's the gray model.

Thanks everyone. I'll try and tie some up even more sparse! and great tip on the flash material, i haven't had a problem with it tangling yet but have had the top wing tangle a bit and get lopsided...
Thanks guys. I'll try tying so with a bit less material and see how they swim. Good tip on the flash tony! I'll give that a try. I used the first fly today on the American and the fish didn't seem...
Just started tying and it's been a lot of fun. Caught my first stripers on my own flies last week.
I've done about a dozen or so and curious if you guys could critique my fly for improvement. I...
Fished this morning on the AR but didn't throw the Jumbo PD. Next time... I did throw the medium PD for a couple decent fish which is just so exciting to see them come up and crush the fly...
Thanks. I don't think a 7wt would be able to toss the jumbo pole dancer at least for my stroke. The medium one is a decent workout after more than 2 hours of fishing. I think I'll keep an eye out for...
Been throwing the medium pole dancer with a 9wt xi3 with the outbound short 9wt with good success but wanted to get an outfit to throw the jumbo.
I like my method 8wt a lot for sinking line but...
Thanks guys. Sort or what I figured but thought there may be a stretch that was planted. When I fish the T, is usually below the town and certainly wouldn't take a young kid down there just yet other...
I'm heading up to Tahoe for days and would like to take my son fishing but with family I'll need to stay close to where we are staying which is near Homewood. How is the stretch of water just outside...
Fished near the Santa Cruz harbor over the weekend early AM on the outgo and caught a few perch but nothing to write home about. Did see a fair amount of small fry bait breaking the surface but...
Thanks Jim. Enjoy.
Spool sold to Jim. Thanks guys
