Greetings and welcome back to another video with FlyFishingWithJeff. In today’s adventure, I fly fish my way down a small river here within a few miles of our cabin here in NW Wisconsin searching for some ‘small river smallies’. The weather is supreme! Aside from an early spring dose of mosquitoes …. the day couldn’t be more perfect.
The smallmouth have not yet moved into their summer hiding places …. but I am sure the warmer weather will soon move them into more shallow waters. Today I found about a dozen bass in some deeper areas of the river. I am using one of my own ties …. a reversed tied bucktail that does an excellent job of imitating one of the many baitfish patterns we have here on the river. Awhile back, I made a video that demonstrates how to tie the reverse bucktail. Click here to check that out.
If you have any questions …. you can leave those for me in the comment section below or by emailing me at flyfishingwithjeff@ gmail.com. I will do my best to get back to you quickly with the best answer I can provide. Have a great day …. Gal 6:9.

The Highs and Lows of Fly Fishing
If you have watched any of my videos then you probably have seen the bible verse at the end slide of each video, Gal 6:9. There are a few versions but the one I stuck on as a kid is as follows: Let us not get tired in doing what is right, for after a […]
