When setting the hook I've learned to use the water to load the road as well, however when possible, I set the hook downstream as to not pull the fly out of the mouth.
good question, they are tough to find. just used them in ohio for steelhead. phil rowley sells them here, recommend the largest ones for steelhead: www.stillwaterflyfishingstore.com/collections/accessories/products/quick-release-indicators
Ya see this all the TIME: as guides they should know this... NEVER grab a salmon by it tail it tears the meat and breaks there back bones 90% of the time, I say this cause I fillet salmon on the daily and I never knew until I started fishing and filleting them for work as I work in a fish market for 10 years I should know this 🤘🏻 refrain grabbing the tail of any salmon any time possible 🙏🏻
How could that be steelhead or transferred from McLeod river in California that meaning that the first steel head put into the river or populations of real ocean strain steelhead using those eggs and milk populations were established so please explain to me how a migratory rainbow trout is not a steel head
These are not Steelhead, sorry. They are a lake run rainbow. If you call these steelhead, you have to call every lake run red band on any Columbia River tributary a steelhead. Real steelhead are much cooler. I’ve caught both and these lake run rainbows are no competition to a real, wild, pacific b-run fish.
Man I love watching Bill fish 😂😂😂 He needs to visit Grand Rapids Michigan so that I can meet him in person ❤❤❤
This is awesome teaching video I love it! I'm going Oct 2nd week salmon fishing run fly fishing I'm so excited to go
Have fun and good luck!
Great video and yes you don’t land them all - an understatement
Haha, this is actually my favourite river to fish and my most fished river.

Great video and fishing info.Thank you!!!
very cool net.
Will these work on Erie tribs as well?
Yes
Not for steelhead, cause there aren't any steelhead out there
Where can I get those inline style indicators? I can't seem to find that style

I know I’m two years late, but as someone who’s fillets salmon you should know that this is not a salmon. It’s a trout
Great Lakes rainbow trout smh
shameful fish handling for catch and release. i see why you said he's a deadly steelheader..
Very poor handling of that first fish. Not watching the rest of this.
Real stealhead go to the ocean.... that is a lake run rainbow.
