i can bomb out a double streamer rig with 2 4-6 inch streamers with my 8wt no prob...same with them 10-12 inch double bunnies, clousers etc....all in the stop and start....adn greg im sure you have seen me do this a few times
hook em and let em take that panic run. may be 10 feet maybe 100. the rest is upto the fish. if you have lots of fish spitting you and you are using small flies yoy may halfto ease up a bit . if the fish is rollin on surface or jumps close too you bring the rod down behind the fish trying too make it dive back under.....if it goes deep keep teh tip high...let it run and gain line whenwhen teh fish aint runnin or headshaking....reel down and slowly pull up....goodluck dude
adding weight too teh flies is a must for me i ise lots of lead wire and beads too almost every nymph. but sometimes when fishing deeper pockets and paster water...i will add a splitshot
yea i like the new location...easy stiop on my way too the bow or back home if i need some materials or other supplies..love chatting with mike and george too....
