Mike Kinney - haven't heard that name in a while - is he still around? Tied some flies for him 25-30 years ago, big forward-wing skating humpy dry flies for steelhead.

I don't fly fish for them much anymore but back in the day I'd use the reverse spider with a lead-headed line anchored up right on the edge of mission bar. Cast out one side of the boat and strip it in accross the flats with schools of cutties chasing it. Cast out the other side and let it sink down the edge of the shelf pretty deep and strip up a blackmouth. A hot, fresh blackmouth on a 6 weight flyrod is a heck of a battle - good memories.
