    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

    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.

    I always wondered about tying on a streamer under an indicator on a lake. I’m going to try that next time. Thanks

    • @FlyFishDan
      @FlyFishDan  ปีที่แล้ว

      Works awesome - just be sure to give it a little movement (finger-roll and a little twitch now and again). Cheers!

    • @rowangliori7658
      @rowangliori7658 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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.

    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 !

      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!

    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
