There are so many diverse ways to fish a fly, but today we’re gonna blend some of the old with the new, some steelhead with the trout and some fly tying so you are better equipped to fish the fly and understand how to swing flies for all species.

Swinging Flies for Trout and Steelhead
Marty Howard, co-author of Steelhead Fly Tying with Dec Hogan and an angler who’s fished more steelhead rivers than most of us can imagine shares his swung fly journey. We’re gonna dig into his new fly-tying book for trout that’s coming out right around the corner, and we’re gonna hear why he doesn’t care if gear fishermen or sleds are going up and down the river before he swings his fly on that run. We get some tips on staying warm this winter. Marty also shares stories of fishing alongside Tiger Woods, other pro golfers, and his good friend Mark O’Meara. Another passionate steelhead angler and fly tyer in the podcast!
