Haha love to hear it. Glad you’re enjoying them.

Just bought the Essential Collection (40 pack) as a thanks for putting this series together. I've been out on my own and with guides but still consider myself 'new' and have enjoyed the videos in this series. Much appreciated!

Thanks for the tips!! I'm in Canada, surprisingly hard to find other young fly anglers up this way so it's hard to learn this stuff

Hey. Might be worth checking out our podcast we did about fly rods. Here is a link: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iG2h1byJnZbFotY.htmlsi=pa91zzh40VZM2Eix

1966, (I was 15) my dad bought me a 7wt rod with I don't know what line, no backer, and the reel is spring loaded so you can pull a lever and it reels in the line by itself. Neither of us knew anything about fly fishing, but I had won 6 doz. flies in a contest advertised in Outdoor Life (1st 100 to send in a fishing story gets 72 assorted flies). I still have the rod (busted tip) and most of the flies, but still don't know anything. Do you know anything about the spring loaded reel, and is it useful in a practical sense?

@venturesflyco

Awesome! Unfortunately, not super familiar with spring loaded reels.

FYI... you mention forceps in the video but they didn't make it into your gear checklist pdf

😂 oh man… that’s embarrassing. We’ll get that fixed. Thanks for the heads up!

I’m offended!!! As a woman.. the only accessories I’ve ever spent $1000 on is fishing gear!!! 😂

Funny and informative! My issue is calling a fly reel a "line keeper"! Please STOP perpetuating this myth! Trying to "strip" a large fish in is just asking for a break off cause you are holding the line too tight and the fish makes a sudden run and pop there goes the fly. Having the fish on the reel with a good drag system ensures more fish in the net by softening the runs, head shakes and jumps. Teach beginners to get the fish on the reel as soon as possible so they develop muscle memory and correct technique even if they just using their hand to supply drag on a cheap reel.

@venturesflyco

We agree. A good drag system is important and a necessity. In our opinion, beginners should find a reel that is reliable (disc drag that works, functional, able to fight big and small fish), but that doesn’t break the bank. There are a lot of great reels out there that you can fight big fish on and that get the job done for under $150. We were just trying to emphasize that $300+ reels with all the bells and whistles are just overkill for a beginner. We appreciate the comment and hope this will clarify what we meant in the video. Thanks for watching and spreading the good word of fly fishing. 😎🤙🏽

@@venturesflyco Yeah see, I think we come from two different schools of thought, I look at it from the view of quality, dependability, durability, and weight. This means a fully machined reel (not cast)with a sealed drag for salt/fresh water and very light to be a counterbalance and not a boat anchor at the end of my rod. These are not bells and whistles, they are (imo) minimum standards for proper casting and landing of fish. If this means I am spending $300 then that is the cost and after 47 years in this sport i have come to realize you get what you pay for. The known issues of the less expensive reels is they are cast aluminum which makes them heavy and they break/crack much easier than machined reels. I believe every beginner should learn on a balanced rod/reel setup to make it easier to learn and eliminate a possible frustration point before it happens. I think you should highlight the major differences and explain why it might be in your viewers best interests to step up to a better reel.

Teach people to fight the fish using their palm too, click and pawl is less to fuck up in the reel.

Not to mention that reeling a fish in feels like genuine fishing, whereas pulling the line in seems like the lazy/caveman way to do it.
