In a world where it seems like everyone is fishing beads or throwing huge intruders and bunny leeches with skagit tips and T-11, I've been fishing my 12-14' Sharpes bamboo rods and long belly lines with 15' type III tips and size 6-8 shrimp flies and general practitioners and finding this...

I'd never really noticed the streaking in a fresh run steelhead's tail until Monday. Looked like the fish had crystal flash embedded in the tail.

Tail rays are one of my favorite features on steelhead, somewhere I have dozens of pics, probably most on film.

I have been throwing more traditional patterns lately. They actually fish better in lots of water with less grains and more belly to throw them. Winter fish on a floating line and iron are just as easy as the skagit and tip program. In pocket water sometimes superior. Nice looking flies, fish and classy rig. I dig the shrimp stuff.

If there's one photo I try to get of fish, it's a tail shot. Especially on a sunny day.
