Kyll - Rodcrackers on Tour

Kyll - Rodcrackers On Tour
by Stephan Dombaj

As far as troutfishing is concerned, ultra light tackle gives me more of a kick than conventional line classes. A 2weight flyrod is - in my eyes - not only the perfect tool for small streams and creeks but also the perfect compromise when it comes to a variety of flies of diffrent sizes and weights. Okay, a freaking big Salmon Jig isn´t fun casting, but fortunatly we are more or less blessed with some quite small and delicate patterns. Due to the action of this lightweight rods we can go for bigger and spooky salmonides with very thin leaders, which can be heavyweight argument for dries. Check out this small pictureseries - I went alone for a couple of hours, so some shots are pretty much fucked up.

First cast - first fish:

could be worse... a nice 40+ grayling on a 2weight Opti Creek


After a few commonsize trouts... a sweet brute crushed on my tiny nymph (0,12mm tippet) 53cm - sweet Brownie!
