Lately, I've
taken to swinging streamers while waiting for the BWO hatch. These have
taken a half dozen fish the past few outings.



" If I can catch trout on dry flies, I will try dries until I fail. My
second choice is to sight fish with nymphs. If that also fails, my next
choice is a streamer. I would rather fish a streamer, however, than blind
fish a weighted nymph. I would just as soon watch snow melt as blind fish a
weighted nymph. " - Mike Lawson -


I've had the pleasure of some long chats with Mike, as well as reading some
of his books, and find that we nearly always have a very similar
'philosophy' on things fishing ... probably because we enjoy the same types
of water ... fishing the streamers will keep ya warmer too G
