Fly fishing tippet material.

While sitting around the camp fire at Andros South, ice cold Kaliks in hand, we got into an interesting discussion.. How long does monofilament actually take to break down?

Fly Fishing for Bonefish by Louis Cahill Photography

It’s widely accepted that a well executed double haul is a game changer on the flats – or in any avenue of fly fishing for that matter.

Trout Spey Retrieve Methods – Video

Trout Spey Retrieve Techniques.

Swinging flies for trout on light weight two-handers has gained quite a bit of popularity over the last few years, and for good reason.. It’s super fun!

Mending – Lift, Don’t Flip

It’s often said that a good drift is more important than a good cast. While we would certainly agree, that’s not to say getting a proper drift of your fly is always easy. Proper mending is an art in itself and today Alaska West guide, Jason Whiting, is back with a great tip on making…
