Episode Description

So, you've picked out a fly, made a cast, and hooked a fish -- now what? Is there a mantra you can chant to help you land the trout? Some spell to calm your nerves? 

It's honestly not that complicated. Fighting and landing fish on a fly rod requires some understanding of how to use your rod and reel to their full extent. Once you figure that out, you'll have A LOT fewer stories about the big one that got away! 

This week on Untangled, you'll learn all you need to know about fighting and landing fish on a fly rod. 

You'll also learn about: 

  • How to deal with drag on your dry-dropper rigs, and how to improve your presentation with them
  • How to rig up your nymphs in a double-nymph or dry-dropper-dropper rig
  • What to look for in a guided fly fishing trip when you're a beginner angler
