Thanks! That's the idea. No matter size of trout or where you are at having some home water is one of life's greatest joys.

Your fish along videos are definitely my favorite ones. I’m on the wet side mostly sea run cutt fishing but love seeing these videos. Gets me eager to head over to the grill and get one of those wagyu burgers and maybe even land a few trout.

Thanks for the great video, what are your thoughts above going to drop shot for those time you need more weight? It seems like that would be a way to use the fly pattern you want and still get deep. Thanks much

Give that a shot. My experience has been that these presentations are so touchy and delicate, even with large flies, that a trout spey rod would be overkill. Handling 5X tippet (which is almost essential to slice through the current), is a job for light rods.

For trout the Naches, Cle Elum, Tieton, Cooper, Waptus, Teanaway, and some smaller creeks. The Yakima has by far the most fish per mile and is the only year-round river here.

On this rig it's a RIO 25# Slick Shooter. There are pro's and con's to all lines on Euro rods so I'm not loyal to this. It makes a good spey shooting line when I put a Skagit head on that reel and is a very stiff line and handles really well as far as mono is concerned.

Really fun. Were you all mono on the reel?

Yes I was using a RIO Slick Shooter 25#, I also use this running line and reel for some of my trout spey heads so it works really well using one reel for both! Here is the product: redsflyfishing.com/products/rio-slick-shooter-running-line-mono-shooting-line-for-spey-casting

@@redsflyshop , I used to run all mono but was having issues with it slipping through my reel (even though mine is closed cage) so I bought a Euro fly line from you guys, which has worked well but it doesn't cast as well as full mono. Might have to try this slick shooter
