Ray, being "low holed" is mainly applicable to swinging for steelhead, where one casts, swings and then takes a step down stream and repeats. Low holing, ie stepping in below someone who is working through a run is the equivalent of cutting in line and considered bad form. It is generally acceptable to start at the top of a run and follow someone through, although it's nice to ask.
