This past year just for the heck of it I tried swinging flies on a "stream" that most people said was way to small to "swing" flies on? But I did it anyway and managed to catch a number of steelhead while doing this with a 10' sink tip and a short 3-4' leader/tippet. The river in question was only about 20' wide in the areas where I was fishing. Most of the people that stopped to see what I was doing thought I was nuts until I starting catching fish when they were not? I am wondering if anyone else out there has tried swinging flies, whether it be on a one hander or spey rod, on streams that most people only drift fished with indicators and or dead drift nymphing techniques.
