In this case it's simply because the pattern I followed off pintrest had them set on the bottom of the shank. This year streamers were surprisingly effective against rainbows for me so I plan on tying some for trout this winter. These were tied for salmon- the land locks have come up into the Still Water River to spawn and the gnarly looking stuff seems to provoke them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brook trout have been rare this year. Besides the stocked Bows and browns there are some small wild trout and lots of 6" salmon par year round. Last year I hooked 2 large land locks but I'm still waiting to get a photo of one in my net. Maybe this will be the week? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
