We didn't use any dodgers at all that day. I think the flies match the bait best, so I think the key is to find the bait first. We fished hardware and flies at the same depths.
Salty, were you using the flies mostly with lead or riggers? I think I recall you did best with flies off lead. Any thoughts as to whether to put flies back further from the ball when on 'riggers to mimic the presentation off the lead? Also, did you use your verticals on the riggers that day? Sorry for the 20 questions, I'm a total novice with flies....Eric
