lethfisher Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 are these the type of streamers you are fishing on the bow?? I saw your post from Jan 30 and you said the fish liked the streamers, is it stuff like this ( ie big with lots of materials ) PS I don't want any secrets and I'm not trying to probe you for your favourite patterns, just a general question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxwell Posted January 31, 2009 Author Share Posted January 31, 2009 typically in these color combos steelhead all the way! i ahve bin tying some trout truders aswell... typical streamer patterns would be woolybuggers, double bunnies, bow buggers, decievers clousers etc... its all about imitating the baitfish and otehr food items teh trout see most regularly that workse for me...... i have bin on a intruder style streamer kick tho and yes they do work for trout! but im tying them in trouty colors instead.... hope that makes sence dude!

That definitely makes sense, I used to fish all those (buggers, clousers, bunnies...) when I was first starting out, fishing for small pike in lakes around Lethbridge. I am super stoked to fish the bow soon, hopefully will be getting a spey rod in Feb so I can go play on the Bow like the rest of you guys Appreciate the help!!

Guest 420FLYFISHIN Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 so what happens when you hook a rock that you just cant shake? I squeeze on a small split shot that will stop the tube from sliding off the line after you break the hook off. what about you? or do you kiss that fly good bye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I squeeze on a small split shot that will stop the tube from sliding off the line after you break the hook off. what about you? or do you kiss that fly good bye That's when it's time to take a swim. Good idea with the shot though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 420FLYFISHIN Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 i couldnt just let them go, some took close to 90 min to tie. Id rather just need a new hook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 420FLYFISHIN Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 what do you carry your tubes in? when your parents are scientist and you ask for test tubes they ask if you want a screw on top and flat or concave bottom! I am now using 15mL and 25mL plastic screw top test tubes. I like how i can see through the sides and know whats in each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
