    Fly Lead Length

    in Salmon Pro's Connection

    Posted

    Your fly leads should match your presentation

    For example.

    Long fly leads are targeting less aggressive fish... slower speeds.

    Short fly leads are targeting more aggressive fish.. faster speeds.

    Paddles are the same way.

    long fly leads..long leads behind the ball, nuetral fish.

    Short fly leads, short behind the ball, Agressive fish.

    Your speed will also match this.

    as a general rule of thumb.. or on average.

    2.5mph- 3x the length of whatever atractor you're using.

    what is being accomplished (if you don't already know) is the longer length is "killing" the snap of the fly making it a more lethargic presentation..obviously the opposite is being obtained with the shorter lengths
