I have found that losing tackle due to presenting your rig in precarious spots means catching fish in nearly every facet of fly fishing. That includes dry flies.

I spent the last week,Monday-Friday,on the SR and had a good time with many brought to hand and many lost battles.I used chartruse glo bugs primarily and also had some luck on orange estez and a streamer I call a "flesh fly".Used just enough weight to tick the bottom on the drift and ALL fish landed were hooked IN the mouth,foul hooked two and broke them off as soon as I saw that.Also landed two brightly colored Coho and they were hooked IN the mouth.
