Be prepared for all. Rain, cold, warm, this means long johns etc
What Gear to pack: Waders, hats sunglasses, wading staffs and extra layers
This is big water expect (sometimes) big fish
ROD SIZE: 5 to 9 weights 6 weight is best. I bring a 7 weight if the water is big and needs a bit more.
LINE: Depending on the water the best right now is a floating line with a sink tip. You never know. Bring a sinking line and a floating line. This is steel head fishing be prepared.
LEADER: This water is grayish and short leaders are okay
6.5lb, 3X or 8lb, 2x or 10lb. The 4X is a good middle of the road. 3X work well if you’re optimistic. Use your own judgment and capabilities on this.
