I live up in Ontario and use this on those pressured days and the fish want somethin different the just a old row bag floating down to them which where I live they see thousands of them cool to see our friends down south using this technique 🤘🇨🇦💯
I use a spinning reel and have been doing this for about 5 years now. The anti reverse lever on a spinning reel helps let line out with slight tension etc. I've caught so many trout in small streams this way. Joe's flies has the best micro spinners they get good action just dead sticking
Very well presented. Just beginning my investigation of steelhead fishing and how its done. Reminds me a lot of troutfishing in upstate NY but with a nicer view.
Rick, you continue to amaze me with making it S I M P L E!!!! I wish you had a drone over your float so we can see across the water, when a Steelhead picks it up. That's NEXT I'm guessing. Tight Lines My Friend.
I'm definitely going to order a few and give it a try.Thank you greatly and keep the video's coming!!! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family God Bless
Great video man! I prefer to see you out on the water! I can see how this technique can be deadly if the hardware bite is on. I also do a little pinning myself. I'm going to pick up a couple of these blades and give them a try.
Looks fun. Excited to test it out. I’m new to drift fishing. Using a bait caster, is it normal to have natural tension when it’s free spooling during the drift? And should the spool tensioner be set to very loose? When I let it spool, it seems to not be giving out line fast enough with the current. Any feedback is appreciated!
I usually loosen mine to almost freespool, if you’re good with a baitcaster and can control that (you usually aren’t making 50 yard casts so it’s not too bad to control)
Great question! what I would do in that case is probably run a 2ft leader from the blade to a barrel swivel/inline float weight probably 3/4oz at that depth. Using a slip float your should be able to reach that zone but if that deep of water does not have enough flow to keep the blade spinning so would take off the float and just cast the rig and retrieve.
@@HolyMolyOutdoors Thanks, the water current in Niagara River is always strong I think perfect for spinner. Do you only suggest this spinner like presentation or maybe other kind. And one more question, I have a float almost like yours 25gr .If the float is 25 gr do I have to add the same weight for the sinker.
Great question. I don’t use any bait with these spinners. However I do/can run scent. Just a small amount will last a while and can help. Mainly though I run these just by themselves naked
Personally I have fished both. Had a pair of Simms for 10 years. But when those wore out I started looking. I love the Dryft. Great customer service and have loved their fit. Super comfortable
