Tips
from the pros here at AVA
This
section is in its early stages.
More guide tips
and wisdom will be added over
the next few
weeks.
Streamers
When
streamer fishing make sure to crimp
your barbs...they pull out of your
guides ear a lot better.
Float
Fishing
When
float fishing we
feel that a 9 foot rod is a little
more effective than a shorter rod.
Casting distance,
accuracy, line control and mending
all benefit from the extra length.
Not to say shorter rods will not
get the job done, but it just helps
to go longer.
Polarized
Shades
Polarized
sunglasses cut down on
more glare
than regular shades.
Plus they help you spot
trout and locate
rocks and structure that
lie just under the surface.
The
River within the River
Try
not to go straight for
the deke or sweet spot
in a river. Fish all
the water thoughtfully
and carefully. Many big
fish will move into
the shallows to feed,
especially during a hatch.
Be patient, observant
and work all the water
before presenting your
fly to the fishiest waters.
