I would like to add the -Look Away- to the strike indicator arsenal. When things are slow and you have been staring at the indicator for a long time, simply look away for a few seconds and a fish is sure to strike. Realization that a fish has taken your fly is usually preceded by a comment like, -Hey, where'd my indicator go? - When you hear those words come out of your mouth, set the hook!

Quite a few anglers never retrieve a indicator and fly rig. I caught more fish when I started to make slow inch pulls. Quartering out to the side of the boat and letting the fly swing in is good. Wind drifting a float tube with a floating line and indicator is deadly. I believe it is about as slow as you can winddrift, as 2/3 of your body is below the surface and acts as a ballast.

We-ve been doing this in Tasmania for well over ten years. we used a specially made sea anchor to slow the boat down drifting in the wind. Very deadly method. We use tungsten beadhead nymphs. of course the secret is in the dubbing material.

Hi phil. Love all your vidos. Did I miss where you put the blob in relation to the point fly? In your instructional video you only setup a leech. Did you change this during filming?

Hey just wondering, how much leader do you use between the swivel and fly? And are you setting your depth to where the swivel is? Or to where the fly is?

Thank you! I sure needed this as I just started fly fishing and I-m handicapped so river romping is out of the question!

Good information Phil. I still water fish a lot and this video provided some new information. I-ll try it!
