moguy1973 Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 How to de-tooth the floss from the fish? That's what I was wondering too...If it's tangled enough to land the fish, how do you untangle it? -- JimIf people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles. -- Doug Larson
Members Genome Posted August 15, 2012 Author Members Posted August 15, 2012 Suprisingly its not that hard but it takes a few minutes to get them out (but the gar can handle it fine). I used a pair of needle nose pliers to open the mouth of the gar (just stuck the point in the side of the mouth and then slowly opened pliers). This gave me room to remove the fibers. Just kind of picked at them with my hands or slid the flat screwdriver along the jaw. Admittedly the rope fly looks pretty bad after just one landing. If I guy was willing to sacrfice a fly for each fish you could just cut them out really fast. The rope flies cost basically nothing and are simple to tie. Based on the flies apperance after a couple of uses I might just sacrifice the fly in the future.
