Recently, I have been having issues with fish coming unbuttoned.
Dry fly fishing for bluegill and bass. Fly hits the water, and fish jumps on the fly. Good size splash and I can feel the tug. Lift my rod and nothing. Fly comes sailing back at me.
Good size splash and the fish starts running with the fly and I actually have em on the line. Three to five seconds of running and the fly comes sailing back at me.
Wait longer for the fish to suck the fly in? Not setting fast enough?
Its not like I am not catching fish, it is just that there are ones that get away that feel like they are hooked than then the fly comes sailing back at me.
Frustrating.
