I like fishing down stream. Swinging for Steelhead is a fine seasonal transition from months of up stream trout fishing. It’s a different tempo, two stepping down a run. The casting is different, not to mention that some days the fly rod is even totally different. Two hands holding cork now. Cool.
When the swing comes tight it’s hard to know whats going on at the end of the line. Some times the weight at the end swims out and up stream, some time it runs down stream like a scalded cat. For a few moments that can seem like an eternity, you really never know what you’re tied to…
Trick or treat, have a great Halloween!
