Browns are starting to feed aggressively to put on some weight in anticipation of the annual spawn. Places like Rio Grande, Rio Chama, Conejos, Pecos, and the San Juan are all fishing good. Not to mention that the fall colors are just around the corner. If you go below El Vado always give Coopers a call up there to check and see if there will be any flow fluctuations for the day.

The Zenon Spinning Reel is only 5.4 ounces and it feels like a feather in your hands. When I first took it out of the box, this worried me because I was sure it would be flimsy somehow. But to my surprise and delight, this thing is solid as a rock and holds up excellently to anything you can throw at it.

This thoroughly updated design brings a beautiful aesthetic defined by aerodynamic shapes and surfaces. The look of this reel is different from anything on the market today. A novel, all-metal external clicker accentuates the back of the reel, complete with a machined silhouette of our local San Juan Mountains and a classic click-pawl sound. The spool is even more open than its predecessor, making the face of the reel appear spacious and clean, with the beveled large arbor showing off the backing and line just as well as it picks it up.

Glad you wrote about this. I grew up getting back to the reel as fast I could just cause it seemed right. Then I had some guy says to just strip them in and I never liked it. The problem for me with striping them in is that I can never get the right tension on the line when I need to release line for the fish. The line almost sticks between my fingers and if the fish runs it tends to break off because there no graceful release. In addition, I want to use my reel, its more fun.

Whatever this mystery reel is, it performs fairly well. The construction feels solid enough for me, the retrieve is decent, and it makes a great noise when a fish takes drag. All 13 Fishing Reels, so far as I can tell, provide the angler with a deep groove in the reel for tying a knot when first attaching line, which I think is a very cool feature. I also like the handle, which seems to be some variation of an EVA foam; even when wet and slimy from lipping fish, I can get a good grip and feel confident setting the hook.

Another flaw is the grip location. When finesse fishing, I tend to straddle the reel arm with my middle and ring fingers; an even split keeps me comfortable throughout the day. This rod has a handle position that seems to want the angler to put either three or all-four fingers in front of the reel arm, which just feels ridiculous to me. This is a small quarry to have though, as I can still use my standard grip comfortably without any issues.

As is typically the case with spinning combos, the Fate Black Creed combo can handily take care of most of your finesse applications. I have excelled with a Big TRD Ned Rig and your standard stick bait, as well as the dropshot and some small poppers. I would venture to guess that finesse crankbaits would do well on this rod too as the action is not as fast as many fast-action rods, as mentioned earlier. I really like the additional length of this rod (7'1") for controlling fish and playing them out, particularly on light-wire hooks. I managed to catch my PB smallmouth in flowing water on a Ned rig, and felt confident that the rod and reel could handle big runs downstream.

What amazes is how much methods can change from one place to the next and even within a specific system, such as the Columbia River. I am also surprised how confident guides are in their techniques and how much those techniques may differ from other guides fishing the same system. As a client, I receive a constant barrage of feedback on what I am doing correctly or all wrong and why. It seems that one guide tells me to fish a certain way and when I replicate this fishing technique with a different guide, I am re-educated. As hard as this is, it does build perspective and allows us to become better overall fishermen.

The second type of guide is generally very intense and competitive, but also willing to put in a long day to create opportunities. A fisherman can learn much from this guide, but often the experience is intense, and the fisherman might leave feeling inadequate and exhausted. This is a tough one because you do leave better than you arrived, and often have dinner in the bag. I have not entirely determined the approach to use with this type of a guide, but I feel like you should give them feedback on their approach and define limits of your expectations. It is a toss-up whether I fish with this type of guide more than once, but again, they tend to be very good fishermen, and much can be learned while fishing with them.

The third is the guide who wants to put you on fish and get you back to the launch or dock as quickly as possible. I tend to avoid these types. As an example, I recently had a guide in Alaska who asked us to be at the ramp at 3:45 a.m. No big deal for me, but a bit tough for my 17-year-old son. I inquired about going an hour later and the guide responded by telling me that he had six fish in the freezer and would be happy to give them to us if we wanted to sleep in. Really? Did he think that we were only going out to fill the freezer? Needless to say, I will not be fishing with this guide ever again.

The purpose of this column is to highlight some of the guides we have here in the Pacific Northwest for our readers to aid in the selection of a guide who fits your needs. We are hoping that this helps to outline some of the things that make guides successful, fun to fish with and for other guides, tips on how to become a better guide, both on the water and as a business owner. If you are a guide and would like to be interviewed, you can contact me at bknight@iss-safe.com. The same goes if you are a fisherman/client and you would like to recommend your favorite guide.

Finally, this column will be a great resource for guides to learn new things about how to create happy clients. Fishing techniques are often highly guarded and that is fine, but real success lies in the feeling that your client has as they leave the ramp and head home. Hopefully they are thinking about the next trip with you and not the research that they will do when they get home to find a new guide who better meets their expectations.

Most serious right handed saltwater fly fisherman, especially tarpon fisherman, reel with their right hand. This is because most right handers can reel much faster with their right hand and these fish take out a lot of line when they run. The switching hands deal when fighting fish is a non issue. When pulling hard on a big fish, you use the right hand also to get leverage. The best thing I ever did was switch to RH retrieve early on. I would encourage all new right handed saltwater fly fisherman to make the change to RH retrieve.

Absolutely correct. Right handed anglers should reel with their right hand. Much faster retrieve that way. Especially saltwater anglers. Casting right handed and reeling with your left hand will get your knuckles busted on a big fish pulling drag.

My thought is, if a person gets too tired from casting & reeling with whichever hand, it might be time to go back, fire up the grill and hit it again after supper. The fish will still be there, hopefully, and a little R and R never hurt anyone. Other than that, what works for you, Git-R-Done!

Thanks for sharing this experience. It actually clears this misconception among people regarding the correct hand to reel. I also feel that it should depend on the comfort level of the person fishing around. I am a left-hander and use my left hand for reeling. ?

I would also recommend people to try out Fisk bags from to enhance their fishing experience.

Let;s forget all misconception and enjoy fishing in the way you are comfortable in. ? ?

Given I fly fish, you work the line with your left hand, a lot more then your reel with the right, I had no problem with left handed reels. I like them in a kayak as that switching becomes noticeable.

Good article. Single hand and two handed rods for me are all set up left hand reel. It has always been natural to me. I went tarpon fishing with a famous keys guide years ago and we met a few months ahead of time and we went over what I needed to do for casting and line management. Great help. Never came up about reeling right handed. First day of a 5 day trip he immediately wanted me to reel right handed. Gave me all the arguments and I said no thank you lets go fishing. The point was not that I could not reel right handed because I surely can as I do with baitcasters, but I was not willing to do it at that moment. All my reels where set up for left and I was not going to fish his equipment that I was unfamiliar with. My rods and reels where purchased because of my personal preferences. By the way I did not loose a single fish because of reeling left. ff782bc1db
