Sandy River Coho Salmon Caught Fly Fishing

[CE750]

where abouts on the sandy river is this? Which exit area?

[steelheadmarz]

Oh and I point and break off snagged fish of any kind. They are not fun when the hook is not in the mouth the right way.

I only set the hook when I feel a tug, see my strike indicator (bobber) dunk down, or see the mouth open and close.

Come fishing with me and you may feel differently. Why would a fly fisher have to snag? I fish and catch 100s of salmon. Some are snagged due to numbers, but I have never snagged one at the sandy. Those fish are so grabby and easy to catch fair in the mouth hook inside out in the mouth dead drifting flies . No flossing there compared to the drift fishers setting the hook on every down and across flossy non up to downstream presentation across the river from me when i am fishing my killer travel

All fly fishermen snag fish. Top of the head, outside the mouth, in the back, through the fins , in the belly. Nuff said .

Hard to floss on a dead drifted fly. Fair in the mouth with the egg pattern's hook inside out to the mouth.

[dirtbikemike69]
