Casting Bubble

[mpagnan]

Good stormy afternoon all,

 

I haven't quite made the transition to fly fishing but I do have a casting bubble and flys (wet, dry, nymphs, buggers and streamers). I was just wondering if there are any casting anglers out there who've used these and had some success? If so I'd love to hear what's the proper techniques for using them.

 

 

Ciao,

Fill the bubble about half full with water you're fishing in (this will give you the weight you need for casting with a spinning rod)... use a light fluoro leader about 2' long... select a fly you think the fish might like to eat, cast and vary your retrieve. You may need to use a longer or heavier leader. Keep experimenting until you start catching fish!

 

... you'll want to consider floating tippet material for Dry Flies, fluoro sux for topwater.
