Still Catches Fish - Old Fly Rod and a Betts Popper... #shorts 👍👍👍
Grabbed the old fly rod and tied on a Betts Popper and caught a Bass at the local pond!
Over-Lining Our Fly Rods
Not sure when we started doing this, but we tend to over-line (go up one line weight) on our 4-Wt and 5-Wt fly rods. I think we did this by accident when we used whatever fly line we had at the time we picked up a new fly reel. So far, have been good with the casting results by going up a weight. That said, was not aware of a debate about this, until I saw an article online by Field and Stream – “ Is Over-Lining Fly Rods Good or Bad? ” For the most part, would agree with Field and Stream that there are no set rules. Would go on to say, “whatever works best for you”!
