Mike Heck, expert fly tier and guide, shares his strategies for catching trout in clear water. The clear, cold, nutrient-rich waters in spring creeks grow abundant insects, flow free of ice in winter and run cool during the summer. This abundant and steady supply of food can spoil the trout, making them less likely to take fly . In Spring Creek Strategies, the author shares the tactics and techniques that he teaches his clients to catch these tough trout. He includes top fly patterns, tips on matching major hatches and his thoughts on stealth and presentation. Invaluable for the angler.
