I just spent a week fishing on Squam lake with a couple of friends. They are not fly fisherman so when we went out to fish it involved trolling spoons and Rapalas off a motor boat. This technique worked great and I would like to try it again next year but using my fly rod.
Does anyone have experience trolling with flies? I have done it on my float tube and did try to troll flies on the Squam trip but I could not get them down any more than a few inches.
If anyone has a favorite pattern I would also love to hear about it.
This is going to be a yearly trip so I want to be ready for next year. I don't mind trolling with spin rods but I would also like to do it and catch fish with my fly rod.
Thanks in advance,
Alberto
