Doesn’t need to be 2 hands

November 10, 2013/in Jon Ray, Spey, art of two hands, steelhead fishing/by Jon Ray

While most the recent press on midwest swinging flies talks about using two hands, single hand rods or switch rods work just as well.  One of my personal favorites is the Scott L2H 1158/4. Pictured below is Ralph from MA enjoying MI steelhead and putting the Scott L2H to the test.
