Anyone here use one of these? Decided to buy one after having a fish on at night, realizing there way no way I could see where he was hooked without a light, and having to cut off as close as I could.
So, today in the LLFS, I saw these things on the wall. Rod said he hates 'em, but I don't seem to have that effortless release some people have developed (guess I gotta catch more for that skill, eh?).
Looks like there's three sizes, I bought the "midge" size, wondering what size hooks you usually pull with those and if I should try to see if I can swap it for the "small" size.
It seems to fit over the bulk of my size 14 and smaller flies, as long as there's no beadhead, but that's not with a fish on the end of it too.
