Hi Mike.
I would expect my general trolling tactics to be productive in larger bodies of water (Reservoirs,etc.) or deep smaller lakes with enough room to manuver without disturbing other fisherman. It's hard to do my thing (I don't) on crowded water. On larger streams/rivers I would likely go with the flyrod and a type III or IV full uniform sink line and let the H.A.L. 9000 Leech work it's magic if the local experts tactics fail first. With this line and a Hal on it casting would be awful, so use deployment plan 'B'. Just position above the hole you want to probe and slip it back letting the current take out more and more as you pay out line a little at a time. But always go with the local expert advice first especially since I have never had a chance to fish in Colorado.
I am glad you've heard good things about my site/xflyz and the mini e-seminar would be an easy thing to do and really exciting especially when I describe what it's like to go to battlestations after a trout ambush on an xfly and 4lb. fluorocarbon. I have about 198 xflyz out in fisherman/woman hands and a few of them may be applying my tactics. I am eager to hear what I have to adjust instruction wise so as to actually translate my method and success to others. You really have to be organized, dialed-in, and prepared. I'm over the top with laminated checklists for different fishing senarios so we don't waste any time going back for anything, gain every tactical advantage.
It's all completely ridiculous, no one else should try this at home. My video, ridiculous but alot of fun anyway.
As far as feed back is concerned this forum world is practically the only place I get actual feedback from other than face to face or on the phone or by third party. People on the other end (with our lures) often don't understand how much we all want to hear a report. Any report. We find out months later "Oh, yeah worked great, caught the only fish caught on one of your lures." That's one of those things I guess. Boy my website side banner ad looks great to me. The rest of you members or whoever should look into a side banner ad here on BFT if you have a website and it's way under $20.00 I get most of my webtraffic from BFT, I'm fairly certain. I'll cut myself off now, Chuck.
