The Ozark Podcast Ep. 31 - Steve Dally - Hopper Fishing for Big Brown Trout on the White River
Kyle and Kyle sit on the banks of the White River below Bull Shoals Lake with Steve Dally of Dally's Ozark Fly Fisher to talk about all things hopper fishing aka. "throwing foam". Steve takes it beyond the basics and breaks down in detail the 5 ways to make you more effective while hopper fishing. Then after recording, we put away the mics and jumped in the boat with Steve at the helm to put these tips to use. We can personally attest if you do everything he says you will be more efficient, have more fun, and put more big brown trout on the end of your line.
The 5 tips.
- Your stance is your key.
- Keep everything in front of you and pick up to recast often.
- Strip in before you cast to make the best possible cast you can.
- Mend half the line as soon as your fly hits the water.
- Waaaaaaaaiiiiiit.
Big thanks to Gary and Abe of Rim Shoals Resort for allowing us to film, record, and stay on their property during our trip.
