This video is all about Fly Line Tapers, and what you are looking for when selecting a Line for Streamer Fishing.

This video is all about Leader Builds for turning over Large Flies.

This video is all about Fly Line Grain Weight and the miss understanding that High Grain Wt. Lines sink quickly.

This video is all about the Non-Slip Loop Knot. In this video I demonstrate the Homer Rhodes Non-Slip Loop Knot, taught to me by Kelly Galloup. This knot allows for a loose fitting connection to the Fly, maximizing the Flies ability to change direction both laterally, and vertically.

Quick off the cuff video discussing how modern streamer fly lines are designed and marketed, with the confusion surrounding the term "2 lines heavy".

This video is all about selecting the right fly rod length for the application. Something to consider with rods is the Longer they are, the more leverage the Line creates at the pivot point (your wrist) - making them more fatiguing to cast. The length of the rod has some implication as to the amount of line that can be carried when false casting, but because most streamer lines are condensed to conserve mass (30ft heads), short rods are very effective at handling and managing the line.

Picked up a St. Croix Rods SOLE Fly Rod 9' 11wt (2015 - currently discontinued rod model) at a local retailer who had it in the corner collecting dust. Gave it a new home, chopped up one of the spare tips, and gave it a purpose in life....MUSKY ;)

Using Dr. William Hanneman's CCS to objectively measure one of my favorite Streamer Rods, the Chippewa River Custom Rod 1pc Predator, 8'10" 10wt. The purpose of this video is to introduce you to Bill's system for objectively measuring subjective criteria, to aid in the evaluation and comparison of various fly rods.
