“Trout fisherman often give away their presence to the fish by the equipment they are wearing. The yo-yo hanging on the fly fishing vest that attaches to the hemostats or line clippers is often plated with chrome, giving off flashes of light. Some fly boxes that you wear on the chest are also bright aluminum-not a good idea. I recently fished with a fellow who wore a bright yellow hat on a meadow stream in Pennsylvania. From 100 yards away you could see his every movement,-I'm sure that trout near him could, too.” GivingIdeasLightLinesSeaMovementRiversFellowsFishesBoxesBoatStreamsHatsLakesFishingChestsYellowGood IdeasFlashYardsEquipmentMeadowsFishermanPennsylvaniaTroutFly FishingHanging OnVestsAluminumChrome Author:Lefty Kreh
“It is not a good idea, either, to attach material such as Krystal Flash or Flashabou, then trim all strands at one spot. This gives most of the reflectiveness at one location - where the strands were severed. Instead, clip off the strands at different lengths along the entire body - that way you'll see little sparkles of light throughout the pattern” WayGivingLittlesIdeasDifferentBodyLightSeaMaterialsRiversPatternsFishesBoatSpotsLakesFishingLengthGood IdeasFlashLocationSparkleStrandsClip Book:Advanced Fly Fishing Techniques: Secrets of an Avid Fisherman Source: Advanced Fly Fishing Techniques: Secrets of an Avid Fisherman
