Gas prices are high, but fishing is life.
I usually catch them when stripping or adding action to the flies. Try ditching the strike indicator and give swinging a try. I use just a standard floating line, then a 7-inch-per-second sinking polyleader, down to 3 or 4x tippet. Kiene’s sells them. Also the bite is 20x hotter during sun up or sundown.
very good info @jb9189...try this now Pete!!!
I'm going to check out kienes, I just found out it's close by
Thanks
@@johndardani9224 they’re the most helpful fly shop in the area. They’ll give you all kinds of useful advice on hooking shad
The boat footage was hilarious! That's a long push/pull down to what looked Gristmill? 🤣. I'm new to fly fishing and am really enjoying your videos! Makes me feel better to see others learning and sometimes getting skunked. If you ever want to cruise out to Rancho Murieta - hit me up! We've got 5 private lakes + cosumnes access. I'd love to fish with you someday 🤙
I feel so happy to see you with fishing life. I really like fishing.Awesome!!
Hi Palm... fishing spot looks cool. I like your fishing videos, and waiting for the next video upload.. good luck
Thanks!
Watching Palm navigating that bank was straight up Mission Impossible stuff. Legend.
wf5 fs3 or better yet wf6fs3... 9 foot rods, the 6 will work better..more distance... look for walking pace water.. be on the inside of the river curve.. cast directly in front of you let drift.. they will bite just a the drift stops.. let fly hang there for a min or so before next cast....use one fly only.. no strike /bobber needed you have a better feel for what the line/ fly is doing with out it...barbless hooks on the american river... been catching shad here from when i was a kid.. my way of fly fishing works great.. the last hour and half before sundown 10 to 15 each evening..... some times me and my freind will fish untill we cannot see our lines. nd catch a few more..lots of fun
Nice like the dedication to get that boat 🎣 fishing
glad you got some hookups! I typically like to use any pink color for these AR shad. keep it up!
Thanks! I will keep them in mind and run some pink flies next time I can get out.
You walked that boat all the way to the Grist Mill launch! You are in much better cardio shape than I! Lose the indicator and swing one fly at a time, Give the fly line a tug to get the fly twitching as it swings down. You'll catch them! Shad like to chase, and they're probably pretty spooked in that shallow, clear water. Good luck.
Thanks for the advice! I have since hooked up and landed a bunch, I definitely implement these tips.
Dang boss I had to subscribe halfway through the video just due to the effort you put into it
Bro thank you 😂
I'm not a fly fisherman but get a sinking fly pink color 1/32 oz size
Most of the fly fishermen use a fly called the “BLOODY MARIA” or any small flies with a bright pink with a lil glitter & use a one inch pink curly tail grub on a weighted jig head for a spinning outfit. Good luck & tight lines🎣
Thanks! I will get it next time I’m outzz
I always drift on the bottom
Also, don’t set the hook! Just keep the line tight, then when they hit it, clench the line down in your hand against your rod and give the tip a slow lift up. You keep breaking off because when shad take the fly and feel it’s not right they have a tendency to instantly bolt down the current so it’s important not to pull against that force anymore than is needed to put the hook in their mouth
Thank you! That’s the advice I needed
@@PalmCirclePete you definitely had all the right flies tied too!
Has anyone seen gyotaku fish printing? It's fairly easy.
You can make a life size print of your fish and you can eat it too.
Grist Mill is the spot for shad. I live nearby. Looks like we may be neighbors based on your walking the boat to launch there. Where there is a will, there is a way...
Awesome! It’s a great neighborhood, hopefully they don’t mind seeing a weirdo walking the streets with a fishing boat…
Going up with a guide in a few weeks. Hopefully they’ll get us on some shad and will help us figure it out
Nice man!
Hey I remember seeing u guys there was a party getting set up I don't if u guys remember
Yes I do remember!
The people do to fish😂 respect
For reel…😂
Lol On the boat
I'm going tomorrow morning. Down stream from River bend park my first time shad fishing. Normally trout guy.
Nice man, good luck out there! Lmk how you do.
@@PalmCirclePete awesome! I will!
@@PalmCirclePete no fish this time.
@@johndardani9224 ahh too bad brother
@@PalmCirclePete I want shad to make a gyotaku print.
They usualy bite at dusk or dawn cause thats when all the bugs come out
sabiki rigs, great for shad.
Nice!
Sometimes I find the best way to learn is by really learning what NOT to do. Way to stick with it.
Very true. Thank you for the wise and encouraging words
Your not afraid someone jacked your trailer?
pink grubs
Gotta lower your drag
You’re not doing anything wrong bro, the fish will eat when they’re ready to eat. It’s called fishing, not catching. Dig?
For real bother!
