steelhead setup?
I have some questions re flyrods for steelhead. I have fished them in WI
using spinning gear with mono, and don't like it. A longer rod would probably make a difference  I tend to use mostly yarn flies on snelledhooks or maybe spawn sacks at times. I hear folks talking of using 8-9 wt flyrods and either mono or flyline with leaders for this type of drift fishing. Can someone help me in this regard? I am looking locally here in the Mpls/St Paul area at some reasonably priced flyrods and reels. Is an 8-9 wt suitable? How effective is mono on a flyrod/reel setup? Any inpup appreciated. Sully
