A Guide to Fly Fishing Reels


Is heavier better?

No, not necessarily. In fact, light fly fishing reels are more expensive and of higher quality. If two reels are the same in all other respects, go with the lighter one.

Does size really matter?

The larger your spool, the faster your line retrieval can be and the better line handling you will have. Also, you want your fly fishing reels to fit your hand comfortably.

Single and ready to mingle?

Single action fly fishing reels are the most common and also the simplest. Multiplier fly fishing reels, on the other hand, can retrieve your line faster.

Automatic fly fishing reels is the easiest to use but the hardest to maintain. You simply need to flick a lever to retrieve your line.

Fly fishing is not a drag!

There are a few different types of drag systems that you can choose for your fly fishing reels. Why do you want drag? Because drag applies friction to the spool, it helps you in your casting and landing of fish.

If you want one of the best and most expensive types of fly fishing reels, then you can go with a disc drag system. With the disc drag, you get much efficiency. Most agree that if you are fishing for large, powerful, fighting fish, a drag system is the best.

Fishing Fly

Bass are ravenous eaters and known to eat prey up to half of their own length. Because bass swallow their prey whole, the size of bass fishing flies must be smaller than the width of the bass mouth.

The movement of fishing flies is critical to attracting the bass. When bass fishing, it’s important to use fishing flies with a strategic design and hook position.

top picks for bass fishing flies :

Deer Hair Popper:

Deer Hair Poppers are often referred to as the original fishing flies. Before the tying of fishing flies was commercialized in America, Native Americans bundled feathers and hair to create fishing flies to attract bass. These fishing flies are meant to float and wriggle on the surface and gain the attention of the bass below.

Deer Hair Mouse:

Deer Hair Mouse fishing flies are a tackle box staple for any bass fisher. Mice often take residence near the riverside and it only takes a slip or a strong win to render them helpless in the water. The bodies of these fishing flies are made of course deer hair tied around a large hook with a long flexible tail.

Swimming Frog:

Swimming frog fishing flies are designed to imitate the movements of the frog while swimming along the surface of the water. The swimming fishing flies frog is also made of deer hair and is colored in various shades of green. These fishing flies work well in areas where frogs naturally take residence.

Matuka Sculpin:

The olive colored matuka sculpin is a great fishing fly to use in streams with algae or weed covered bottoms. These fishing flies normally come in a gold option for lighter colored riverbeds and made from deer hair and turkey quill.

These fishing flies also need to be fast sinking and heavy enough to stay down and not float off the bottom.

With the right weather, the right fishing flies, and a little luck, a bass fishing trip can be one of the most satisfying fishing trips of the year.
