Fly fishin in pulaski in a diferent way!

[Crazyegg]

Ive heard a lot of people saying that they fly fish in pulaski i do in a way buy using a leader and a barrel swivel with a gamagatsu hook. But does anyone actual cast with a fly rod to salmon like real fly fishin i dont think so but if u do pleae tell me i would like to do it.

Dont worry about us. If it makes you happy and you enjoy fishing with it then great.

Yes they do but; it depends on the flow and where the fish are in the water column. Sometimes you don't have an option - if you want to hook them you gotta use lead or sink tip!!

When the river is high lead is an option, but it is not the only way to get a fly down. When I can, and I usually can, I use a weighted or non-weighted fly depending on the water, cast it far enough upstream, and mend as needed. I can get a nice dead drift for maybe as long as 40 feet depending on conditions. Sometimes it's only five feet, but that may be all you need. I can also get a nice dead drift with a sinktip. It works, and it is far more like nymphing for trout.

I've been using traditional methods for years. Just a 9 wt. and a bunch of flys ( weighted and non) depending on conditions and location.:cool:

The hardest part is trying to get a good drift thru the clowns. When it gets to bad you just go for a walk.
