Fly Fishing Tying Demonstration - EZ Sparkle Sand Eel Fly

[Troutsiders]

Looks like a great looking fly! I'm going to Kona, HI in a month... would that fly be durable enough for bonefish, trevally, & other big trophy fishes? Great video!

While nothing will hold up in the long run to a toothy critter this is a very durable material.

Hi! I don't do fly fishing. ButI use fly lures to catch bass. How do people who do fly fish cast their flys without any weight?

[artsnflies]

In regualr fishing you're casting a heavy lure attached to an almost weightless line. But in fly fishing you aren't really casting the fly. You're casting a heavy line attached to a nearly weightless lure (the weight of the lure is more or less incidental).

I'm new to fly fishing, and I have a question.. when I hook a fish, should i keep a strain on the line of the rod the whole time, and reel at the same time?

[artsnflies]

"Strain" isn't the right word. Tension, yes. Never let the fish have slack if you can help it. Goes for any tackle, not just the flyrod.

Neat stuff, I wonder if it's any good?

[artsnflies]

It works great! Use it anywhere you'd use epoxy. No mixing, no fumes, won't turn yellow. Look for it on our website under Fly Tying Materials!

[tommymetro]

Thank you for sharing that with us. I bought the stuff awhile ago but didn't know how to use it. Now i know.

[artsnflies]

The key is not to use too much. And don't try to over work it. It will smooth it self out as it dries. Enjoy!
