This episode I talk about Handlines - specifically, a homemade handline made from a pulley that is reeled in using a handle.
I also detail the handline made with PVC and a Quilting Spool of Thread.
And, I mention a commercial version made with aluminum purchased from Amazon.

Had fun fly fishing for little Stripers at the local dam. Denison Dam serves as the tailrace to Lake Texoma. When generating power the Stripers show and lots of action can be had for both fly fishermen and surf casters!
But, don't forget to fish when the current is slack. You may be surprised how many fish lurk in the area.
