Winter Trout Spey Tactics | Ashland Fly Shop

[@philipaaberg160]

Thanks for the useful video. Love how you release the trout quickly and in the water. This is the new etiquette in action that will help preserve our Western trout fishing.

Thanks for this guys. Gives me hope that trout are still alive in the winter since I've been skunked 4 times in a row on the middle fork of the Willamette.

[@willjohnson9412]

[@jessebourneau6426]

Thanks for this! Up here in Alberta, we cherish fishable winter days on the Bow River.

[@ashlandflyshop770]

Thanks for watching!

[@philipvankampen3394]

I always return to this video for inspiration come Winter. Of course, fishing the NC and VA area isn't exactly Winter by many standards :)

[@philipvankampen3394]

BTW, I always lauch at 3 rods - no net

[@ashlandflyshop770]

Thanks Phil! We had fun putting this together! It was a pretty tough day too!

[@sambrown6178]

[@ashlandflyshop770]

Ah! Thank you Sam! Glad you got something out of it!

[@ibookje]

Thanks! Like the easy going flow which makes novices like me (haven't even tried out my Micro spey rod yet).
Nice vintage Sage 500 series reel! (508?)

What is a Skagit head set up?

[@bigron8346]

Do you use a float tip with your scandi line?
Thanks for the video.

[@ashlandflyshop770]

You certainly can! If you want to use a skater / dry fly then floating tips are recommended and they cast well too.

[@FlyFishingChronicles]

@@ashlandflyshop770 Do you need extra tips on a scandi line? I always thought you can put on your leader and done.

[@ashlandflyshop770]

@@FlyFishingChronicles You have the option of adding light scandi versi/sinking leaders to your scandi . This would be in place of the mono leader , not in addition to.
