The Salt is also a great place for beginners. There is plenty of room for casting and the water is very easy to read. Even the experienced fisherman may wait and take advantage of this by practicing certain skills that may need a little work. When fishing the Salt, you would probably want to have two rods. A five weight for fishing dry flies, and nymphs, and a seven weight for throwing heavy streamers.
Leaders tend to be on the heavy side.
Use 9 foot 4X and 5X leaders for fishing dry flies and nymphs, and six or eight pound Maxima for fishing streamers. If you are interested in fishing the Salt, we do offer guided trips. Act quickly though because space is limited. And for the sake of future fishermen, please practice catch and release. After this is over, early in July, the river offers many miles of good fishing water accessible from the Greys River Road.
