The Wrong Fly in the Right Place, with Tim Flagler

The Wrong Fly in the Right Place, with Tim Flagler

Many flies cross boundaries and you shouldn't hesitate to experiment with flies designed for other species. Tarpon flies will catch striped bass, smallmouths, and trout. Squirmy Worms and Mop flies work for bass, carp, and even bonefish. Steelhead, shad, and carp take bonefish flies. The list goes on, and Tim [35:08] and Tom relate stories where the "wrong" fly has often saved the day. It's a fun discussion.

In the Fly Box, my plea for phone calls has produced some great ones as well as the usual e-mails. Some of the questions and tips include:

Is there any reason I can't cut the hook off a jig head and use that for drop shotting?
A tip from a listener on a way to make guides in foreign countries very happy.
Any pros or cons to fly lines made from PVC as opposed to other materials?
Will a 5-weight rod work for light saltwater fishing?
How do you fish for carp in a lake with no visibility?
A comment on fishing etiquette.
Why do the catfish in my river jump clear of the water?
Which hook should I cut off my articulated streamers?
A great tip from a listener on tying blood knots.
