The Biggest Lie in Fly Fishing — There's No "Right" Way to Fish | Ep. 182
The biggest lie in fly fishing is that there's an exactly-perfect, foolproof, never-fail method to fish every piece of water, and that if you study or learn enough, you'll never get skunked.
Here's the truth -- great anglers still get skunked, or at the very least, have TOUGH days on the water. But one skill they've mastered? The ability to sift through the advice that's out there, and learn how to apply it to their unique situations.
On today's episode of Untangled, that's exactly what you'll learn. You'll get advice on how to implement fly fishing advice so you actually see results on the water.
You'll also learn about:
- Whether mink eat trout, and how much impact mink predation can have on trout populations
- The knot we prefer to use for 99% of fishing here at VFC
- Why the knot you use DOESN'T really matter
- How to pick flies to use based on where you're going fishing
