Fishing for steelhead in fall and winter usually requires a lot of casts, a slow, deep swing, and a large fly teased across the nose of an elusive fish. Getting down with a Skagit Max GameChanger and an InTouch 3D MOW tip is a good start, but choosing a fly with bulk that is easy to cast is something else!
RIO’s Animal is a 3″ long tube, tied “intruder style” and backwards on the tube for maximum movement in the water to create a deadly winter steelhead pattern. The tube is paired with an ultra-strong, octopus style hook for solid hook penetration and maximum hold when fighting a fish.
In case you missed it…
This link to a previous RIO Fly Fishing Tip is the first of two tips about casting with tricky wind conditions. Today’s tip shows how to cast directly in to a head wind. Enjoy.
