[quote _6x_]but a thing that interests me about hopper fishing is how you can strip the fly back on top, even against the current, and sometimes trigger aggressive strikes. [/quote]
This is a strategy that I employ at all different times of the year. I especially like doing this during the winter months when no grasshoppers could be out. So, don't restrict yourself to thinking that this won't work at other times and with other flies as well.
Too often, fly fishermen believe that only the perfectly drifting fly will be eaten...that is often not the case.
