Tip
Tip: On the Henry's Fork Railroad Ranch section, use long 12 to 15 foot leaders and size 18 to 22 flies for spooky trout
How to do it: Fish long leaders and tiny flies in that famously spooky section
Mistake it fixes: Using short leaders and large flies on Railroad Ranch
Why it works: That section's trout are extremely wary and feed on tiny insects. Long leaders and small flies are required to avoid spooking them.
When it matters most: Destination fishing, technical water
