Indicator fly fishing for California steelhead and trout with spey and switch fly rods

TOP TIPS FROM PROS ON INDICATOR STEELHEAD FLY FISHING

The bubble will get you a frown on many western waters yet at the end of the day the numbers will turn a frown into amazement. One of the most beautifully styled steelhead spey casting indictor fly fisherman in the world can be found pictured above. Breaking new ground with a style all his own. Timothy Horner and a handful of his local waters. Be sure to check out the Irideus steelhead flies for 2013-2014 they are sure to bring you luck! The Irideus 11.6 6/7 spey and switch fly rod is an industry best. The price is what we as steelheaders feel is a top end. But lay the 6/7 down next to the industry bests then cast the rod against them. Time on the water will make a champion every time. TRUST IN IT!

One way to start out steelhead and trout fishing is with a small float or indicator bubble. These can be casted easily on the Irideus spey and switch fly rods to great distance. Run an 8 ft leader from the float using one fly or two fly nymph rigs. The novice fisherman will have a greater chance of hooking fish using the indicator fly fishing method. The Irideus 6/7 11.6 foot switch fly rod has proved to be a true champion using this approach. Standard fly rod people will also hook more light biting fish like steelhead and trout doing this.

We also will use large dry flies running a smaller nymph 18 inches off the back of the dry fly. This will bring more explosive strikes and offers a more natural approach to the water.

You will be able to cast to fish from distance spooking less fish....this is reason enough to give switch and spey fly rods a shot! 

One more perfect wild Feather River wild steelhead tamed by the Irideus 11.6 spey rod using Irideus steelhead flies and an indicator set up nymph rig style with the Irideus micro swivel. Give this style a try!
