Orvis Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Chris Burkard [32:00], renowned action photographer, joins us to share his journey and insights into the world of fly fishing and extreme sports. His unique perspective on connecting with nature through photography and fishing offers a refreshing take on outdoor adventure. And along the way he offers some great tips on bikepacking with a fly rod. In the Fly Box this week, we have these questions and more: I keep spooking the bigger trout in a small southern brook trout stream. What can I do to avoid spooking them? Is an 8-weight Encounter rod enough to handle Pacific salmon in Michigan? And how heavy a tippet should I use? I lost my biggest trout the other day after a long battle. What advice do you have for landing bigger fish? How can I get the eyes on my big predator flies from coming off after a few casts? What do you carry in your "eventuality kit" when taking trips? I saw sea trout jumping outside my office in Stockholm, but I couldn't catch them. What do you think they were doing? My buddies and I caught a bunch of fish on an experimental soft hackle that looked like nothing in nature. I thought you were always supposed to match the hatch. View the full article Quote
