snakeman4 Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 anyone feel like sharing some tips or tricks that have worked for them or others down at the whirlpool? i fish flies and streamers under a float with my spinning rod but seen a few others on the fly down at the pool lately. never reallly knew where to start with the fly rod down there. I have a 7 weight rod with floating line and fast sinking leader and a general assortment of flies from local tackle shop. and if anyone wants to be real generous and toss some flies and knowledge down there with me some time im free all day everyday (layed off for winter) lol.

d_jordan8 Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Old tapered leader with float (thill ice & fly) on it about 3-4' long to a micro swivel, shot line about 1 and a 1/2 the length of the shallowest you intend to fish to another micro swivel, flouro leader about 18" designing on clarity... Bulk your shot just above the bottom swivel... Hope that helps All the best Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ola Posted January 16, 2012 Report Share Posted January 16, 2012 i still haven't figured out how to catch anything on gear down there let alone my fly rod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marth11 Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 I was going to say that, I have a hard enough time catching fishing there, but then again I only go may 2-5 times a year mainly in summer for bass, I have lost a lot of fish though.
