Comment on Bass Fishing : How to Tie a Carolina Rig Fishing Line by Billy Dane

The weather makes a difference! In the cool weather conditions, such as springtime and fall, bass are much more sensitive to top water fishing lures. They are also more likely to be seen in shallow water, including round the shoreline wherever there are overhanging trees. Whenever it warms up, though, bass escape to deeper, cooler holes, so you require a change of approach. Basically it is advisable to dredge the bottom, and employ something similar to a plastic worm in order to get the bass to react.

Comment on What kind of fishing line should I use for trout? by Richard Chivers

Hi, I found your blog on Google and I'm a admin of talk angling and think your blogwould be an good resource for the UK angler. If you get a chance please go to our angling forum and submit a back link. TA gets a more than 5000 visitors a day so you will see the benefit. Do you think there needs to be more control over cormorants in the UK? I was speaking to a representative of the Environment Agency last week and he said that the RSPB say that there are only 30,000 breeding pairs in the UK at the moment and therefore they are not a threat to anglers interests whereas the EA has conducted research that shows it at over 100,000!

(thumbs to gbf)
Yes just use the hose on fine mist and give it a thorough rinse & then dry it off well. No need to take it apart and oil it.

Comment on Can I use regular bass fishing line as a leader for fly fishing? by m g

m g — Sun, 13 Mar 2011 13:31:59 +0000

For tippett, there are actually some differences. The biggest one is stretch. Since your fly line itself doesn’t provide much stretch, there is very little shock absorption which you often need due to the thin diameter of terminal end line you use in fly presentations. Stretch also prevents your fly from snapping off as you false cast. Normally it’s not a big deal especially with larger size tippets. Some guides I know use standard flourocarbon line as tippet material when their clients are nymphing more than a couple feet under the water but you rarely see fly fishermen use it for presentations that require long false casts..

Another difference is how limber tippet material is compared to standard mono. Tippet is very supple while mono is relatively stiff. This is probably more significant toward the fly end of your leader.

The other difference is strength. Mono tippet is usually a bit stronger than the same diameter mono line. Or, you could say that the same strength tippet is thinner and therefore less visible than the same diameter line. Either way, this is a very good thing when fly fishing. For example, your standard 4x tippet has a breaking strength of about 6.5 lbs, but a line diameter of .007". Likewise, my favorite inexpensive mono fishing line is trilene XL which comes in a 6 lb (slightly less strong) test that is .009". It’s almost 30% fatter to go with standard mono of the same breaking strength, you could go down an entire "X" size in fly tippet for that tradeoff and have a much stronger line.

I’ve used plenty of standard mono and flouro as tippet material in my day though, and you can certainly get away with it, especially when fishing less than precise conditions. But in clear tailwaters and some other situations you need every advantage.

For leaders, if that’s what you are tying, then I suppose you could get away with bass line for the butt sections if they don’t spring open your loop too much when casting, but consider using tippet at least for the tippet area to protect your fly. They make it distinctly different from bass line for a reason, and if it were a gimmick it wouldn’t stand the test of time and become one of the essential materials in any fly fisherman’s vest (though many products you see in fly shops will be gone next time you look).

Hope this helps.
