Fly Fishing for Bass Part One #bassonthefly #flyfishing
In this video I talk about why I think more people should fly fish for bass. Weather you fly fish for trout or you fly fish in salt water I think fly fishing for bass will make you better at both. Not to mention that fly fishing for bass is just plain fun.

Good stuff, and I have two fly rods..... That I know nothing about! One is a Shakesphere 9', that's supposedly from the 60's. I only have an old fly reel, and don't know anything about line or how to cast a fly rod. Maybe you have done videos of how to set up a fly rod for fishing. The number system, for the rods I have, don't appear to be in use on them.

I have never fly fished for Trout. I bought my fly rod specifically for finessing fishing for Bass. And I love it. Living up in Minnesota, I'm always hitting the Mississippi River and small river channels. Them smallies are pretty aggressive. Sometimes they hit it as soon as my fly lands on the water. And you're absolutely right. Accuracy is key. But I tell you what, many times it feels like I'm fighting a large rock! A few times, I would have to walk backwards just to help reel them in. LoL.
Alvin, thanks for all the pro tips. I’m just getting into BassFishing with my fly rod and am having blast doing it thanks for all the videos you put out.

Alvin, great series of videos about fly fishing for bass from someone who is an expert on the subject. You are so right, bass are everywhere. The drainage ditches in my subdivision are full of them. I really liked your discussion about how bass fly fishing techniques carry over to making you a better saltwater fly fisherman. So true. This is the best bass fly fishing video series on KZread IMO. Your videos are refreshing in the way that you discuss technique, presentation and equipment when almost all other videos just show fish after fish caught without any discussion about the how and the why. You are a great teacher . Keep teaching us and making us think. Thanks.
What’s up man, thank you for all the information and for the videos. I also live in Austin and have been doing a lot of panfish/bass creek fishing lately on the spinning rods. I can’t wait to start fly fishing. These bass fly fishing videos help a lot.
Great video. This was my first year of ( fly only ) bass fishing. I had to really work at the hook set. But your so right in everything you say in this video. I fished a retirement turnimate that some guys from work out together. They all laughed at me when I pulled out my fly rod. They all needed tissue afterwards. I had 14.7 with four fish. Three other guys caught fish, but only one each.lol I love it when that happens. It isn't very often. Loved the video.
Hell yeah, keep it up man. I’m glad I found the channel, there’s not to many bass fly fishing channels out there from what I’ve seen. It’s cool to see other people chasing big bass on the fly.
Thank you for an excellent video and bass on a fly tutorial. I have been a trout fishing dude for 30 years in the Rockies and was transferred to the west Houston Texas area 10 years ago and have fished only 3 times… I know… what a freakin sin! So now I am tying bass bugs and rigging up to go kick some bass! Thank you sir… very inspirational

Yeah, I'm all in for fly fishing for bass! You covered the subject from the many facets that it requires. One other angle I'd like to hear your experience with is this. I moved to N. Ga. recently and looked forward to the trout fishing. Well long story short, the deepest,clear water reservoir is 15 minutes from my driveway. I'm talking walk to the truck,15min. later, the kayak is launched and I'm casting in 3-2-1..... Hey, 'ya want to review kayaks as a casting platform, this place is great. I believe you'd like it. Largemouth, spotted, hybrid and stripes. Also kinda weird, some enormous carp. If you're ever this way, I'd like to know. I do like showin' off the home waters.

Excellent points all around there Alvin. Definitely gets me pumped up to hopefully get back on the water soon.
Thanks Alvin, great advice and insight. To be skilled at most physical activities developing body memory is key. All casting requires it. Fly fishing probably more than conventional. The repetition of hitting a hundred tight spots for bass will definitely help.
Practice, practice, practice casting. You can have all the latest and greatest gear, boxes of the perfect flies. BUT, if you can not cast and put the fly where you want to, you are not going to have very much fun!!😂😂😂😂😂😂 Great info...Alvin!! Sure wish we had more bass fishing near our home waters!!

Lived in Colorado and Montana most of my life so ya fish trout a lot . Spend time in Alaska , Mexico, Belize get to enjoy all of that . But my parents lived in Florida , so many years ago when I went to visit I brought my 6wt to fish a lake by there house . Bag ! big large mouth bass , I remember the first one I caught it scared the crap out of me it killed a popper . Now I look for places that have bass although it’s a little Tuff here I have found some places relatively close and love to fish them . Only thing I did different going back to visit my folks was bring an 8wt , bass seem to really like to hang out in cover when you hook them it’s nice to have a little more rod to try to keep them from getting deeper into it so you can get them out . Love your channel keep videos coming. Happy Trails

Good job Alvin. I appreciate the videos and fly tying instructions. I catch everything on a fly rod from trout to carp.

Thanks for addressing bass fly fishing. I started fly fishing in 2009 for bass and panfish. Before that I was a gear fisherman, never fly fished for trout. I use many rods from a 4 wt. for panfish to a 6 wt. for river smallies and an 8 wt. for largemouth bass. I agree with you about more casting leads to better casting. I live in Virginia an we have good smallmouth, largemouth, and panfish rivers and lakes. Thanks again for bringing this up, hope to make it to TX to fish someday.

I'd say for the darker water if it's dark because the water is stained, stick to natural patterns such as Light brown or olive! NOW if the water is dark due to mud or debris Id try to find what the body of waters smallest but brightest colors on its baitfish are, because if its small but bright i can guarantee those bass are zoning in on them! and if it's super muddy and the bass aren't hitting your fly (that being whatever, Game changer, bunny leach, Bush whacker etc) try to maybe go to a crawfish pattern or maybe a worm pattern/tye and if fishing bottom doesn't help, whip out some poppers like a Baby bass pattern for those elders to zone in on or just a straight up hopper fly!!! good luck!!

Hey hey, thanks for the advice Alvin. I'm up in Austin been trying to get into bass on the fly but haven't really caught the bug yet (pun intended). I can grab plenty of blue gill and sun fish but just can't get those dang bass to bite. Admittedly most of the time I prefer top water or dry flies so that might be the issue. Question, when blind casting with a wet fly do you always feel a solid tug when they bite? I'm wondering if I'm missing the hook set.
