I’ve at all times discovered the world of two-handed rods, and steelhead fishing generally, fascinating. I’ve by no means achieved it, however I’ve dabbled in trout spey a bit right here within the Rockies. What I’ve been capable of do, nonetheless, is learn up on and be taught as a lot as I can (with out truly doing it) about two-handed casting. This current story in Fly Fisherman Journal by John Larison caught my eye as a result of he talks about the necessity to break among the long-established guidelines of fishing Skagit strains.

Particularly, he dives into the main points on how you can extra successfully fish Skagit strains in rivers the place two-handed rods beforehand by no means ventured.

“Solely 15 years in the past, fly anglers needed to decide their winter steelhead rivers with care,” Larison writes. “Due to the rods and contours obtainable then, solely these streams with a large floodplain and a sluggish gradient readily accepted a swung fly. With the present wholesale adoption of compact Skagit heads, fly anglers have found a brand new world of choices: closely timbered, quick rivers in mountainous terrain–locations the place fish are usually huge, chrome, and aggressive.”
