Many forget that salamander looking baits will trigger bass too . Thanks for videos !!!!!!!!!
Always thought this.. Adipose isn't the same as the Dr. Who fat loss pill is it?
What an excellent video! You covered so much thank you!
Excellent tutorial.
This was TERRIFIC – Thanks to Tom and all! — Deb from NJ
Tom, can you do a video on setting the hook for bass. It seems to be a bit different than trout. The camera isn't catching you set the hook and when to lift the rod. Thank you, Jade
Excellent video. Thank you for all of the useful tips and tricks to fly fishing for bass during different seasons.
Do you use a tapered leader or straight mono with an intermediate line?
Very comprehensive and beautifully produced. Thank you
I've had tremendous success with bass on a small woolly bugger (yellow/green) with a pheasant tail beadhead trailing.
If my economics classes at college would have presented the information with beautiful scenery as you have in this video, I might have enjoyed the class better. I'm new to fly fishing however I have been bass fishing for almost all my life and to get the best results for your poppers I would suggest early in the morning right before sun up or during sun up and right before the sun goes down and all the way through the night. Not sure why they go after top waters so aggressive during that time but That's when I catch the majority of my bass on a topwater. Great video
i really wish you guys would also includes °c instead of °F only. Excellent video none the less. Not a complaint but more of a suggestion 🙂
Thanks
Tom's looking ripped in this video.
This video is EXACTLY what I needed here in Kansas!!!!!!
“Public land owner” shirt 👍👍👍
I love it I just subscribed you guys you’re fantastic I love to watch your techniques can you do something about helping me with the bluegills it’s been a while I had my heart rebuilt after having a stroke it’s been about three or four years since I’ve been on the water seems like things are a little different now than what they used to be if you got any suggestions I love my spiders I love being on the surface thanks for your help and for all that you do to promote this fantastic sport.
somewhat new texas fly angler here, thank you for putting together this video! i will be tear'n'em up now
To conclude, Use intermediate sinking line. Keep the fly under 1-2 feet under the water for any imitation flies you will have success most times throughout the season.
Try dry flies early in the morning or just before Sunset.
Good Luck.
Being more of a conventional bass guy, fishing 20Ib test in pads and heavy veggies seems ridiculous, of course it’s not when fly fishing, but we fish 60-80Ib test braid in the slop with frogs and punching rigs…
Do i have to match the weight of the fly with the rod?
Can i catch catfish on a fly rod if so how?
What a badass, casting into the middle of the pads like that. LOL
I'd never even try it, just the thought of having to wade through all those lily pads to go retrieve my spun deer hair something or other that took me hours to tie gives me the creeps. Having a boat might change my mind but wading through chest deep lily pads is like a total nightmare for me… Great video at any rate as with all of Tom's videos.
Can a 9’-8wt be used for small &. large mouth bass, blue Gill, crappie, and walleye? We have a lot of these species in our area so looking for a rod reel setup to hit all these species and not have to buy multiple rod/reel setups. Thanks
Tom R is a genuinely nice, down to earth, pleasantly humble guy. He's the real deal. Keep up the fine work, TNFF folks.
WHAT LENGTH LEADER DO YOU USE
River smallmouth have many similar habits of river trout.
If you have never caught a Smally on the fly , your missing some impressive Heart Beats, lol.
Beaver lake , Vancouver Island . Try it you'll like it ! Think black Wooly Buggers oh ya !
No such thing as "advanced" Flyfishing for Bass..Tie on decent sized Steamer, voila.
It seems the water that holds bass in south texas is so different, we have drought conditions more so than anywhere else it seems
This is what I do! Or should I say try to do! Self taught, in all facets, I'm so happy to have found this! Gonna make my life so much more richer, thank you, I subscribed!!!!!
