TheCream 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2012 What fly are you using??? I caught most of my fish on Royal Wulff's and black elk hair caddis. Every fish I caught came on dries, I used a few other patterns but those were the main 2. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheCream 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2012 And your set up? I will hopefully be in west Virginia later this year and thought going after some brook trout would be fun! My small stream setup is a 7'9" 3wt (St Croix Avid), WF floating line. You can get by with shorter leaders when the flows are good, nothing longer than 7' usually needed, and I go as heavy as I can get away with on the tippet thanks to my habit of hanging in trees. I used 5X on this trip, at low flows in the summer/fall I'll drop to 8X. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a Kodak Playsport which I use a lot for shooting fishing vids and I am currently considering adding a Gopro Hero to my equipment. What is this "Blur fix mod" that you listed? is that the flat lens mod? if so who's did you get? Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is this "Blur fix mod" that you listed? is that the flat lens mod? if so who's did you get? Steve It is a flat lens modification. I ordered mine through Amazon.com. I was going to go with a cheaper mod like the Mako lens, but I saw that the photo filter size BlurFix allowed you to use was the same size as my filters I have for my Nikon D70 macro lens. I wanted to be able to use the polarizing and warming filters with the GoPro. All of the GoPro footage in the video above I shot using the polarizing filter to help cut some glare. This is what the camera looks like with the mod installed: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
