Fly Fishing the Mono Rig: Streamers -- Episode 1

The Troutbitten video series featuring Streamers on the Mono Rig begins.

Episode One is an overview of the tactics and an exploration of what is possible when fishing streamers with tight line tactics. The video also covers the Troutbitten Mono Rig and the functions of its three main components.

In short, fishing streamers on the Mono Rig lends the angler unmatched contact and control over the path of the flies. At any moment through the drift, we can directly manipulate depth, angle, drop rate and speed, independent of where a fly line wants to go.  While fishing a standard rig with fly line (floating or sinking), the line dictates the course of the leader and the fly. But on a Mono Rig, the angler is in direct control over the path of the fly, all the way through the drift.

Fishing streamers on the Mono Rig offers more presentation options, better feel and improved strike detection.
