Small Stream Fly Fishing Techniques

Most of the small streams we have in see far less pressure than the larger, open rivers we have. Casting, accessibility and frustration probably play a large role in why these streams see so little action from fly fishers. Generally, these streams will be about 15 feet wide at their widest, will have terribly overgrown banks and plenty of log jams to hang up on. It takes several trips and many, many lost flies to perfect your ability to fish these streams successfully.
