Re: Anyone trending upward in rod weight?

I'm still fairly new to fly fishing and I have never used an 8 weight, but I was surprised that my 6 wt can throw weighted clousers and such as easily as it does. I was thinking big flies would be a...

Re: Bless me Father, for I have sinned

I'm not trying to start an argument but I am not above using spinning gear. When you are a warm water angler sometimes you do what you gotta do. Lefty Kreh will back that up. I think what a lot of...

Re: Fly-rod-in-the-mouth pictures?

I think spinning guys would do it more, excepts spinning gear tends to weigh a little more than fly gear. I personally kind of like the in-mouth pose :) It inspires a feeling of victory in battle!

Re: Progress

Thanks! Unfortunately, SW Ohio is to be rained out this week, so it may be a little bit until the rivers are fishable again.

Re: What are you cleaning, polishing, 'greasing' your line with?

I just cleaned my line (Rio Performance WF6F) and dressed it with the SA stuff last night. Only went out with the line a couple times since I got it over the winter, it was amazing how much gunk...

Re: warmwater pics

Great bass brother! Wow I bet that was fun.
Also, great sucker vanish! I've never caught a white sucker (not for lack of trying, they can be picky) but I have caught redhorse suckers on spinning...

Re: What is wrong with my roll cast?

From watching videos, I think maybe I was applying too much force too early in the cast, rather than directing it more forwards. Do you guys ever haul while roll casting? Is that a thing?

Re: What is wrong with my roll cast?

Thanks for the replies everyone. It is helping but I am stuck on one point.

What is wrong with my roll cast?

Hey all,
I got out on a pond with my new TFO Pro Special II yesterday. I was noticing that at short range, roll casting was fine, but at any distance more than 20 ft of line or so not so much. It...

Re: It's on :)

Nice specs! There's a small pond that I know of, that is rumored to have a population of crappie. It gets flooded pretty good occasionally by a nearby river so its possible that anything could be...

Re: Hooks

I was in my study, where all of my fishing/fly tying gear lives, and I clipped the point off a messed up streamer I made to use it as a practice casting fly. Unfortunately when the wire cutters...

Re: What have you been tying today?

It doesn't say how thick they are, but they aren't too thick, maybe 1/8 inch. I found that pack at Walmart.

Re: Ever have a reel freeze?

Correct me if I am wrong, since I am still somewhat new, but isn't that one of the points of a sealed drag reel? I know it keeps sand and sediment out too but guys always take fish pictures with...

Alright, I came straight home from work and tied this, using the above stick bait as a point of reference. I give you, the Clown Clouser, or.... THE PENYWISE!...
