This has been going on forever on the Salmon River. It changed somewhat once they finally outlawed weighed hooks and snagging...

I used to flip and pitch for bass at Griffith. Since we they refuse to weed out some of the spatterdock, the fishing there is useless for flipping and pitching. It's just too thick...

Please show me how to connect my braided main line to a 4' mono or fluorocarbon leader.

I like the Palomar knot for braided line:

Great knot for braid to lures.
The double uni I spoke about above is for braid to mono or braid to fluorocarbon. I use it for leaders and when tying braid to my mono spool backing.

I love it! I use 8# X9 with a 8# fluorocarbon for smallies on all my spinning rods. Never had any problems. I use 65# X9 for all my flipping and pitching. Just started using 20 and 30# X9 with a 20# mono leader on my baitcasters too. Works great for topwater plugs.
I used Nanobraid for awhile. I also like Suffix Nanobraid in 2# for ultralight freshwater fishing.

...The strongest and thinnest mainline to leader knot per those tests is the FG knot, but in my opinion is also one of the most difficult to tie correctly..
True to a point. The FG does not hold well with thinner braided lines. I use 8# X9 braid and always use uni-to-uni knots. The FG knot cannot get a good grip with those lighter, thinner, braids...

Northern DE has some nice trout fishing early in the year - not so much when the weather worms up and the streams disappear...

Flows are listed under "discharge" are the CFS flows..

Red dots are areas to fish.
For the NB - below the dam, I do not wade when the flows (CFS) is above 300.
For above the dam it is 200 CFS
