NYMPH MANIAC DOWNUNDER

Casting lines from a fanatical Australian/New Zealand fly fisherman

Where are the real fish?

Here it is:

A 8 lb bullet, caught on the Montana Creek, Alaska
If you want to catch fish which never give up and run strong, often taking you into your backing, then this is for you! Most local anglers will use a 8 weight rod. Those who enjoy the sport will use a 6 weight rod. The tippet needs to be heavy. I was using 9 lb tippet.








The flies are large streamers. Try purple first. Then black and if that doesn't work, resort to green.




These fish are not feeding.  Rather, your sole purpose is to really annoy them so that they respond to your fly.
