Unexpected catch! - Vallecito Lake in early Spring - McFly Angler episode 44

Well lake fishing from the shore is never easy, but it can surprise you! Its always better to have a boat or canoe but, there are good fish to be had when fly fishing from the shore. I fished all day, and dealt with a few pike biting off some of my flies. But finally towards the end of the day I hooked into a good trout. It was only one fish, but the fight was good enough to make it a great day out on the water!

Many people ask me what gear I use on my trips, so here is a breakdown on what rods, reels, and line I was using.
