Whether its Voltz getting those 2am phone calls or messages to either of us over social media or even in person, we get a lot of people asking us questions.

Topics include (but prepare for typical digression);

  • Loop to loop connections - you could be ruining your fly line
  • Ever had your rod ferrules stick ? we talk about proven way to get them apart
  • Weedguards - Are they fish guards are they gods gift to fly tyers or are they the dumbest things ever.
  • Flies that teach technique to beginners that also are worth tying to catch fish 
  • Selecting a fly reel - The shops are going to hate hearing this... but we want to further the sport. A beginners guide to reel selection
  • Feathers - The difference between Saddles, Capes, Necks and Schlappen also Grizzly and non Grizzly
  • How to fish a Crab fly - To move it or not to move it... that is not the only question. 
  • A strong and definite description to what is sight fishing... An over used phrase that when used incorrectly is like nails on a chalkboard to a lot of people.
