3 Angles of Short Fly Rods

from Casting Across Fly Fishing · host CastingAcross.com

In my experience, short fly rods are perceived as "small rods for small water." While there is truth in that, a sub-7' rod does a lot more than just measure a few feet less than your normal fly rod. This episode, I share three things that I think anyone using a short fly rod should be familiar with. I talk about casting, presentation, and fighting/landing fish. I also make the case for why you should use a longer rod when you can get away with it on smaller streams. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
