Is it the perfect swing, the surface take, or the mystery of where they'll show up next? For those who pursue them, it's more than fishing—it's a way of life. Time to get in the bucket... Today, we're joined by Adrian Cortes & Richard Harrington, two passionate steelhead anglers, to dive into the art of dry fly steelheading, the traditions of fly tying, and the deeper meaning behind chasing these fish. We talk about bamboo rods, classic patterns, and why swinging flies for steelhead is as much about mindset as it is about technique. Plus, we talk about mentorship in fly fishing, river etiquette, and how the culture of steelheading continues to evolve. If you love the history, artistry, and thrill of chasing steelhead, this one's for you. Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/727
