Good fishing! I never had much luck in the truckee, but I'm on the cal side. I know there is some nice fish there, but you need to know where, when and what, which I don't. Nice vid editing too!

I like the XP in 690 out west on big rivers. I must say that few rods are equal to the Scott 804 powerply or the original Winston IM6 8 1/2 5 Wt 3 pc.

great video, nice relief from the many crappy amateur videos there are on the Truckee. You've got a great mend technique, I can't believe how long of drifts you get. Great fish and nice scenery. Were you using any weight to get the flies down?

What rod and reel is he or she using,

Nice vid. I need to fish the NV side more. I like fishing that stretch, but its a drive for me from Truckee. Oh, try using a 2488H in like an 16-18 tied sparse for your normal size 20s and youll straighten a lot less hooks. You can get those hooks up in Truckee at the hardware store, if youre willing to drive. I used to work at RFS, nice to hear the kind words.

Nice video...We're looking forward to things warming up and to this kind of action shortly on the Bow River in Canada.

Thank you for the kind words. Yes, I usually use weight on the Truckee, in the winter when the flows are low, usually a #6 or BB, when the flows get high, two BBs or two ABs. Best Regards.

I used a Sage TCR or XP, can't recall which rod that day, but the reel is a Galvan T6. Galvan and Sage make excellent products, but they're a bit pricey. Thanks!
