Do any of you guys know of any good fly fishing instructional vids I can buy or watch on youtube on anything like casting techniques, flies to use, and knot tying. Also, I live in Lawrenceburg Indiana is there anywhere other than the Brookville tailwaters close by to me that has good trout or bass fishing? thanks
First off, welcome to the force . Secondly, go back through the archives on this forum, and you will find a plethra of information for beginners....lots of good info. Thirdly, get on youtube and just search for fly fishing info, you'll get a TON of instructional videos. Lastly, for leader to fly line connections, everyone has their likes....I personaly use a nail knot...doesn't get caught up in your guides, comes out smoother IMO. Welcome again!
