Exotic Trout Species And The Flies That Catch Them | Ep. 161

There's more to trout fishing than rainbows, browns, cutthroats, and brookies. There's all sorts of interesting trout out there, just waiting for you! But when you get the chance to fish for these lesser-known trout, you'll probably get hung up on one thing: what flies do you need? Are there top-secret patterns that only work for these fish, but locals won't tell you about unless you buy 'em the right 12-pack? This week on Untangled, you'll learn about some of the rare trout species on the planet, and the flies we use to catch them.

You'll also learn about:

• Pros and cons of having multiple reels and spools with different line options on them
• Why your fly line sometimes gets stuck in your rod guides, and how to fix that with the nail knot
• Does hook gap size matter when fishing with streamers?
• Why you should let your streamers "die" when they initially get tagged by a trout
• What a short-strike is
