flyangler Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 My husband plans to fish with spoons on his spinning rod for steehead in BC. I just saw some spoon flies for casting with a flyrod at the flyshop today. One of them was shrimp colored. Hmmm. Methinks one could cast one with a speyrod. Or would this be "bad form"? I could learn how to tie them here: http://www.jollysearover.com/spoonfly/index.html Quote

I think from a casting point of view on steelhead there are a lot of other patterns that would be more suitable. I always try to contact local fly shops to see what is popular for the river at a given time. Quote
