    I just went to Ashtabula. They wouldn’t touch gaudy, colorful steelhead patterns, only got them on nymphs like beaded soft hackles, Walt’s etc. Swinging size 14 soft hackles with 3mm bead in stained water killed it.

      Really? Man I couldn't buy a fish on nymphs this past season aside from a few on black prince nymphs. I mostly fish the chagrin, and I use both centerpin and spinning gear along with the fly rod, but I did real well on smaller black and olive jigs, so I've tied some larger nymphs in those colors. By large I mean 8-12, some soft hackles a bit smaller. And similar stuff on jig and tungsten combos

    An alternate method is to hook your fly on the second stripper guide, wrap your leader around the "reel", not the reel foot, then reel in the excess. When your ready to fish just pop the leader off the reel and give your rod a jiggle and the fly usually pops right off the guide and you're ready to go.

    Does the overhang mean the reel end of the head is just inside the top rod eyelet so many inches or is it out of the tip with so many inches of running line hanging off the end of your rod?
