Great tips Dan - as a streamer junkie , I find this works well on River Smallmouth as well. Different streamer color variations are essential too
Great tip!
Thanks for the tips. I’m just starting out in fly fishing, but I’ve been fishing night crawlers in rivers for 40 years. I do a lot of the same things. On the swing it also works well to slowly pull the bait/streamer up river once it gets close to the bank. Pull it a foot or two and let it sit, then pull it a little more.
Upstream weighted flys on floating line has been a go to for me fishing smallmouth in current.
Nice!
Thanks for sharing Dan. I have used many of those streamer techniques successfully. One occasion I dropped one streamer into an inside curve undercut bank on a Driftless Iowa stream and got crushed by a nice Brown. Fun.
Nothing like the steamer fishing - I finally got Koby believing in it too!
Thanks Dan I was swinging an olive bugger last week and remembered your tip "outside mend" I ended up catching a 12in rainbow and a decent whitefish that both took the fly on the outside mend
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing that!
Thanks D! This is exactly what I was hoping/asking for! Great tutorial! Much appreciated!
You're very welcome!
Dan , thank you for all these tips , i am just starting out fly fishing , tied some simple streamers up, these tips will help me no end, thank you , all the best ,David.🙂.
You bet!
I caught my first wild rainbow in CT banging the banks. Thank you Dan.
Nice!!!
Great tips Dan. Thanks. I have recently been stocking up on my streamer collection with plans on using them in both streams and lakes as well. Always appreciate any advice
Glad to help!
So many people just fish them mechanically, and get disappointed by how few fish they are catching. Streamer fishing still isn't very popular here in Scotland, the majority of people seem to only really fish small wet flies on rivers, casting across and down repetitively all day, which catches fish but is pretty unexciting.
I've been doing that mending trick for a long time and it's really effective, I feed slack in sometimes too to let it dive for the riverbed then quickly throw a mend to make it dart up off the bottom in a different direction, and it often produces fish when nothing else does.
Great info, looking forward to trying those methods you shared with us. Those 5 techniques will definitely be helpful! Enjoy the video, and love the content you provide!
You bet! Thank you for taking the time to watch!
Streamers can be a lot of fun. The fish are rarely tentative. Im still waiting for a streamer that works as well as a rapala. But steamer fishing is more rewarding
Try the Sculpzilla - I think you might be impressed with it's fish catching karma!
@@FlyFishDan I'll have to tie some up. Thanks for the advice
Works great for steelhead as well . Love those tugs in Erie
So good!
Great tutorial - thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, Dan. Very helpful.
Thanks! 👍
Great vid Dan. Very informative…
Thanks 👍
Hey FFD,
I never used streamers or striping line before. But , of course, I see you doing it in your videos.
I just spent 8 days in eastern oregon.
I went up to a high elevation mountain tributary stream. I used a streamer an got a fat 12” rainbow and a 14” bully.
Just wanted to say thanks !

Ps. Go Ducks
That is awesome Keith - love hearing stories like that! Cheers and FISH-ON!!
I always wondered about tying on a streamer under an indicator on a lake. I’m going to try that next time. Thanks
Works awesome - just be sure to give it a little movement (finger-roll and a little twitch now and again). Cheers!
Yep, even better suspend it under a floating fry type pattern, fish'll take that too. Looks more natural than an indicator too, especially when you're giving it a little movement.
Great video. I see you rocking the WSU shirt Go Cougs!
GO COUGS!!
Great videos, from 🇨🇮🇨🇮 what rod,line and reel set up,would you recommend for streamer fishing, have to try this style of fishing,
Thank you! I would recommend the FFD6 ( fishonrods.com ) and the 'compound float' line from Cortland ( www.cortlandline.com/FLYFISHDAN ). Big shooting head for streamers. Hope that help! Cheers!
awesome!
Have you ever read the book by Kelly Galloup Modern streamers for trophy trout?
I haven't...good book?
@@FlyFishDan you’ll never want to put it down, I need to grab the updated version he just recently published
Hahaha yeah, dammit, the upstream cast is deadly. Now the secret is out! If you tuck the rod under your arm and use both hands to retrieve as well it gives you more control. Plus it means you HAVE to strip-strike, which i find works far better for hookups on streamers
Great tip! Love that tactic for sure!
Do you still reccomend 12ft 3x leader for your streamer fishing or are you using a sink tip?
I use both - depending on the circumstances. I’ll have to do a vid on the usages and how to. Cheers!
What are some of your go to streamers dan?
Sculpzilla, sparkle minnow, mini dungeon are some of my favorites
whats your spey set up
I have a 3/4 fast action 11' spey rod for trout and use OPST line
Im a streamer junkie who never seems to catch fish on streamers.
TH-cam Kelly Galloup - he's got a ton of great tutorials on catching trout on the streamer
@@FlyFishDan watched all his stuff I can find, also have his book :)
