Notes
Fished in fairly slack water in rivers and in marine estuaries or beaches, usually on an intermediate sink line or a floating line, with short, fairly rapid pulls. The polypropylene sub collar keeps the spider hackle pulsating as the fly is stripped toward the angler. The author's best coho outing was a November estuary trip from float tubes on the up-tide, where dozens of coho were caught and released.
