This week’s “Master Class Monday” video from Jensen Fly Fishing is a long one, but it’s well worth your time, as it’s full of useful information. Dave and Amelia hike into the backcountry in late summer, where they discover a pool full of fish–cutthroats, bull trout, and whitefish. Dave demonstrates how he fishes his way from the bottom of the pool to the top, so he can catch the most fish, and he tailors his approach to the fish’s behavior, depth, and place in the pool. It’s a fascinating study of both fly-fishing technique and Dave’s psychology. The man just loves a “project fish.”
Watch for further installments of Master Class Monday every week here at Orvis News, in the Advanced Tactics playlist our You Tube Channel, and on the new Advanced section of our Orvis Fly Fishing Learning Center.
Really enjoyed that Dave. Brought back some great memories. I hope to make it back out there in the spring. Thanks for an enjoyable few minutes.
Great to hear! 🙂 It wound up being a great summer after a cold, wet spring. Lots of fun moments. Happy dreaming to summer ’21.
Hi Dave and Amelia,
Do you have (or can you create) a video that addresses the best way to approach low, slow, clear water?
Thank you,
Charlie Phelps
Hmmmm, I know there is a lot of that in our video series here and at our website by maybe not that specifically. I hate telling people to surf through the playlist…. hmmm… try this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2Nbb1dr3YA or this one…. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWmTRdkRyRI Funny that we haven’t done that topic specifically given how much of it we do! Looks like a topic for this series in 2021 🙂
