  • How Do I Get My Fly-Fishing Writing Published? With Ross Purnell, Editor of Fly Fisherman Magazine

    How Do I Get My Fly-Fishing Writing Published? With Ross Purnell, Editor of Fly Fisherman Magazine
    May 6 2025
    Inside nearly every fly fisher is a budding writer, eager to share their passion with the world. I've done podcasts on how to write better fly-fishing stories in the past, and figured it was time to talk to an editor and publisher about how you can get your masterpiece published. Ross Purnell [32:15], editor and publisher of Fly Fisherman magazine, was happy to share his advice on this subject—and no one in the fly-fishing world has more experience in this topic than Ross. In the Fly Box this week, we have some great tips from listeners, some questions that I've answered before, and some fresh ones that I haven't, including:
    • How do I deal with leaders that get knotted up when I am ready to use them?
    • When you have fished a section of water, how long do you stay there, switching flies and techniques? Or do you move on?
    • From a listener, a great fly and technique for catching yellow perch.
    • A listener relays his approach for minimalist equipment when fishing close to home.
    • What is your opinion using balsa wood for fly tying?
    • My casting with a dry fly is OK, but I struggle with dry dropper and streamer rigs. What can I do?
    • Do trout get "lost" after being landed in another part of a river?
    • A listener adds some corrections to the proposed selling off of public lands.
    • When fishing a double nymph rig, do you put the bigger fly above or below a smaller fly?
    • How do I keep my dropper from slipping off my barbless dry fly? I don't like using separate droppers on the leader.
    • If I mess up and tie a dry fly with oversized hackle and wings, will it matter?
    • How many flies of a given pattern will you tie? What is the minimum number?
    • Is there an easy way to get beads on a size 18 hook?

  • How to find great fly fishing close to home, with Greg DeMars

    How to find great fly fishing close to home, with Greg DeMars
    Apr 30 2025
    I've had a number of guests on the podcast teaching us about urban fly fishing and it will be an ongoing process because everyone has different takes on how to approach it. There is nothing better than a few hours of peace before or after work, without needing to drive for hours, and you can find it, even in the middle of our largest cities. My guest Greg DeMars [40:25] specializes in the urban fisheries around Dallas, Texas, but the tips he offers are valuable for any urban area throughout North America—and probably beyond. Urban fishing can be exciting and interesting and challenging—it's not just about trout or permit! In the Fly Box this week, I thought we had some unusually interesting questions, including:
    • Will you ever have a podcast on targeting yellow perch on a fly rod?
    • Is there any need for a "shorty" Euro line if I want to Euro nymph with my regular weight-forward line? Can't I just attach a very long leader?
    • Are swimming holes "fish-free" zones or are they worth targeting in early season before the swimmers arrive?
    • Where can I find Orvis BigEye hooks?
    • When I fish in fast water I have problems shooting line because my excess line gets carried away by the current. I don't want to use a stripping basket. Is there another solution?
    • I never use tippet, only leader material. Do I need special tippet?
    • What knot would you recommend instead of the Perfection Loop?
    • I have problems catching flying insects over a trout stream and my hat doesn't work. What would you suggest?
    • How do you tell what fish are feeding on under the surface?
    • Can you elaborate a bit on why you should make your first cast count? How important is that and how do I do it without making a few bad casts first?
    • When tying nymphs, I have trouble getting CDC to wind evenly. And I don't like using a dubbing loop. Any tips on how to make my CDC flies look better?
    • What tips or recommendations do you have for getting into fly tying?

  • Best Practices for Wader Care and Fit, with Natalie Cullum

    Best Practices for Wader Care and Fit, with Natalie Cullum
    Apr 22 2025
    I get a lot of questions about wader care, storage, and washing instructions. Fit can also affect how long waders last and how comfortable they are. Waders are one of our most expensive purchases, outside of a rod and reel, and in order to make them last longer we need to take good care of them, so they stay waterproof and comfortable. My guest this week is Natalie Cullum [27:14], Orvis product developer in charge of waders and technical outerwear. She knows all about the fabric used in waders, the technology involved in their construction, and how critical fit is in their comfort and durability. If you are looking for a new pair of waders this season, or if you want to make your current pair of waders last longer, this podcast is essential listening. In the Fly Box this week, we have some interesting questions and tips from listeners, including:
    • Is the Orvis Tippet Knot a suitable substitute for the blood knot?
    • Do you think there is a chance that dry-fly purism will come back?
    • Does a saltwater line cast worse in fresh water?
    • Can you suggest a use for the fluffy material at the base of a Coq de Leon feather?
    • Do you have any tips for dry flies in salt water?
    • A listener suggests some kind of national organization to purchase public lands that are planned on being sold as part of the inflation reduction act.
    • Will there be Orvis Pro Wading Boots in size 15?
    • What is it that Tom brings on the water that most people might not have in their pack or vest?
    • I keep catching landlocked salmon of the same size. Can you suggest a way to target the bigger ones?
