Stocker Trout Fishing News

This round we provide details on the nail knot tying tool, and how we use it to connect our fly line to our leader. The video is pre-recorded and is a demo where we use it to tie a line strike indicator. But, it does double duty in it’s the same method used for tying a nail knot variant. The difference is the line strike indicator used a hi vis dacron fly line backing, and the nail knot variant uses 30lbs mono. Do stay tuned for more Live Q&A Chat sessions in the future!

While surfing the net, checked out Texas Fishing Forum’s fly fishing thread. Noted a question that got our attention. “How do I know if a cut off to much of my fly line……..? I’m a newbie and I’m wondering if I cut off to much. I am also looking for some lessons. I want to fish for trout in the future so I want to be able to lay the line down on the water softly. Thanks in advance” This video provides our suggestions and fits our Team’s goal… “Learn to fish by our trials and errors” which we have made lots of errors over the years. Short answer to the question… “Don’t cut your fly line… Please!”
