Fly Fishing in June Podcast

Trout Fishing in June

Fly Fishing in June can be very rewarding whether you are going to the trout streams or to the bass rivers.

In the first portion of this fly fishing podcast, Harry Murray discusses how to spot the trout on their feeding stations in the stream and how to use this skill to catch the trout.  He gives an in depth discussion on the different signals he looks for.  1)movement of the trout,  2) color/contract of the trout to the stream bottom, 3) shape of the trout, 4) shadow of the trout.

This month provides a great sulphur hatch so we recommend the Murray’s Sulphur Dry size 16 and 18 and Shenk’s Sulphur size 16 and 18.

Bass Fly Fishing Podcast
The Shenandoah Blue Popper is my favorite smallmouth popper because it takes bass under a broad variety of stream conditions.

The second portion of this fly fishing podcast Harry discusses fishing hard head surface bugs on the bass rivers.  Mastering the action of surface bugs is very important so you want to select the proper hard head bug for the type water you will be fishing. Each popping bug creates a different action based on 1) size of the bug, 2) taper of the body, 3) cut of the face.

Hard Head Bugs discussed includes: Shenandoah Chugger,  Shenandoah Slider, and Shenandoah Blue Popper
