Flying fishing is our special theme this week, because flying fishing usually involves wading in cold water.
Under such high temperature, cool comfort is more important than fishing, but there is no conflict, because our wading stream is full of fish we like to fish.Of course, our coldest stream is under the tail flow below the large hydropower dam on the white and small red river.Together with the tail water of Norfolk, these are the most famous catfish waters in the world.Spring River, which is fed by the mammoth spring in the Spring Park in the mammoth MM, is a person who has no favorite person, including catfish, cornea white spots, small mouth bass, Kentucky bass and large mouth bass.
You can also fly fish and pan -fish on other streams, such as the King River, Sylamore Creek, Saline River, OUCHITA RIVER, Caddo River and Spring River.
These are the sports fields, but this article focuses on the tools needed for flying fishing in the state.Flying fishing is not as mysterious or unique as it does.You only need one pole, scroll, line, leader and flies, and sincere willingness to learn and improve.
Flying pole
In addition to striped sea bass, you can also fish successfully so that we can have any fish with 3 or 4 rods in Arkansas.You can start with the cheapest rods of a large sporting goods store, but after dealing with better rods, you will quickly grow the pole.By spend more quality rods on the front end, you can save money at the back -end. As your skills are improved, it will maintain service.
It is subjective to distinguish between sticks and rods.The best suggestion is to deal with many rods before purchasing.Even novices can say the difference between the pool prompt, the difference between the carefully made of the rods.A great feeling is still alive.It is bent in all right places and has muscles in the right place.When you deal with a good one, you will know.
By selecting Sage, G.LOOMIS, R.L.Winston, ORVIS, TEMPLE FORK OUTFITERS and Redington and other advanced brands to save some time.
For my almost all of my flying fishing, I used the 4 -weight Kildare four -type rod of Reilly Rod Crafters.Chris Reilly, the owner of Reilly Rod Crafters, said Kildare is his favorite in the vast lineup.It is definitely a dedicated instrument to complete all operations.One afternoon, on the Xiaohong River, I convinced that Kildier was the stream of my life.
For greater homework, I use Cablas RLS 6 weight clothing, and the cost of feeling and performance is much higher than its cost.
Before the upgrade, I used Abu Galgia’s 5 -weight clothing for decades.I still use it as a backup.It also feels and performance should spend more.
The most important thing is to start with at least one mid -quality rod.You will be happier.
Flying scroll
Traditionally, flies scrolls are a glorious line storage system.If you are really good, you can manage a big fish by using your palm as a resistance.In recent years, due to the advanced technology, the scroll has become a precious fish combat tool, and this situation has changed.
The evolution occurred in the early 1990s, when the Fly Reel manufacturer added a adjustable disk resistance system to its scroll.With the correct adjustment resistance, you can use the scroll to help tame big fish.This reduces your dependence on the pole, with the power of neutralization, and the pressure on leaders, thereby reducing the opportunity to break through.
My often flying fishing partner Rusty Proitt uses Sage Rods with LAMSON Reels.I use the SAGE 2324 scroll with Reilly Kildare and Cablas RLS scales with Cablas Rod.My Abu Garcia is equipped with a scroll of Abu Garcia.My next pole will be 6 weights, or 8 weights.It puts Allen scroll.I also have several museum works made by scientific fishingians and Martin.They are just looking for problems.
Flying line
A heavy flying line accounts for about 95 % of all flight fishing display in Arkansas.The line that is moving forward gradually becomes thinner, making it heavier to the terminal, providing the necessary quality to promote things as light and tiny as fishing flies.
There are many good brands.I use the RIO series on the Reilly Kildare Diaben.I use Cablas any Cablas pre -evaporated on the Cablas rig, and there is no complaint about it.I use the science fishing series on Abu Garcia drilling rig.I also used the Cottland line.
Because good lines are essential for good casting, I recommend buying high -quality product lines from the beginning.The Rio line is expensive, but it is not actually when you have amortized for many years.Using better lines will help accelerate the speed of development.
leader
Leaders are attached to the terminal of the flight line.Its buttocks are thick and are very thin at the end of the terminal.Many fishermen put the flies directly on the leader.
Leaders should be soft.More importantly, it needs to be balanced with the flight line in scale.If the leader is too heavy, the flies will not be able to stretch it for appropriate demonstration.Instead, the flies and leaders will be in trouble and collapse in the pile, which will make the fish laugh at you.Your vest should always have two or three packaging leaders.
shawl
Tip is the thin line connected to the end of the leader.It is usually thinner than the leader.Many fishermen no longer use tips, but I am willing.I connect it with dual UNI knots, and I think this is essential for appropriate flight demonstrations.Similarly, tips must be balanced with leaders and flies.If your tip is too much, it will slow down your flies and destroy your actor lineup.This is a experimental practice. Generally speaking, the same is true of flying fishing.
Learning is an important part of fun, but the journey starts with appropriate equipment.
