Cortland 444,is fine.....clean it with dish soap and stretch it....after you swing your fly let it come 15 feet behind you and let the fly come up to the surface use the tension of the water behind you,with fly and line still in the water to roll cast....should work after you get your timing down
when water is low n clear,mysis shrimp in a size 16.....generic prince nymphs seem to out produce most other flies for me,day in,day out for the great lake tribs
nymphing,swinging is more effective with streamers and soft hackle flies,along with Vladis worm,Walts worm is a Southern Ontario gem..cranefly larvae imitation
