Spey Fishing Steelhead with John Hazel (2005) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This DVD is an excellent compliment to John & Amy Hazel's spey casting DVD's. Once you can get your fly out in the river with a two-handed rod, John covers everything you need to know to hook steelhead. This is good, practical instruction from one of the most experienced spey guides & teachers out there. I think almost anyone will pick up some useful tips. John discusses leaders, knots & flies and then fishes a few runs showing how to cover the water with surface skaters, wet flies and droppers. Thorough attention is given to likely holding water and steelhead behavior on the take. Great video!
This DVD will be most helpful for beginner and intermediate steelhead fly fishers but also for advanced students of the sport who can't get enough.
