somebody somewhere has a picture of a steelhead caught on a worm jig under an indicator on a fly rod... i know cause i watched it happen on the river this year and saw them take the pics...

news
that's true fly fishing right there


but to those of you who swing - i applaud you for staying true to the technique...
none of this float fishing or bobber dogging stuff i see being done.

I go fishing, with a rod, reel, line, and lure...sometimes bait+hook.

wink

It gets too complicated for me much beyond that.

Bobber dogging is for pussies, no matter what kind of rod/reel they use!

They already are...but if they bobber dog, then they'd be double.

You already flyfish, and you're a Red Sox fan...really, what have you got to lose?

the realist truest most elite new way of flyfishing!
I'm gonna put this together for an ascot northwest mag here soon
Swinging plugs on the spey for steelhead... K-9s kill!
while yes a boot, it was still one of the funniest things I have done

a heavy skagit, 650grain or more is a MUST! you can't turn the plug over without it and just won't get that sparkle on your wobble throughout the run.
On bright days I recommend blu and chrome, on darker days I fish blue and chrome, and on days ending with Y blue with just a touch of chrome seems to churn up the bite!
its a little tricky to double spey these things so I would stay with something simple like a snap T.
the rvr stickler seemed to do the trick but the key was to really let him take it and allow the long rod to load up. Low rod tip, feel the grab and lift!
as for rod I like the $800 winston B2mxs, they have the back bone to launch a plug in any run, but are sensitive enough to feel the bite and load the rod as the fish turns down river with your plug.

lots of fish in the Jags!
but this one bite on the dangle of a nice slushy run

and most important thing I forgot was you gotta have a nice loose fitting ascot while swinging plugs

Holy Shizzle! Is that an electric blue ascot you're wearing?

Somebody had to do it.

You went and done it. I'm not sure what this means. It could be good. It could be bad. It couldn't be worse. Looks like you got slimed. Did you get jizzled too?

nope, nice try smile
steve can testify that while a boot, no jizz, hell it actually fought harder then most of our fish the hole trip
and if by blue ascot you must mean the heavy [Bleeeeep!] down jacket since it was cold. I traded my ascot in for it when that plug was tied on wink
