Subject: Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} double hand rods in PotomacI also caught steelhead in both Walnit and salmon river, but very limited experience. Walnut is easy to to get some actions but no casting. That is why I am thinking to explore other tribs.--On Sat, May 27, 2017 at 9:28 PM, Richard Farino <rfarino@gmail.com> wrote:--If you've only fished Walnut Creek in Erie, and you STILL want to fish for steelhead, you're a better man than I. If that was my only steel heading experience in Erie I'd never go back.That said, I used to fish nothing but a 9' 6 or 7-weight with a floating line in Erie tribs. I could still cast a marabou streamer pattern and swing, but I wouldn't need the longer length rod because I was casting overhead.One year I wound up buying a Sage 7110-4 Z-Axis Switch. I loaded it with a 350 Skagit body, and bought interchangeable tips. Now I have a floating tip for bouncing egg patterns on smaller rivers, and I usually use a type 3 or type 5 tip on bigger rivers for swinging those same marabou spey patterns. I also use it on the NB Potomac.My next purchase will be a 4wt Winston Microspey. I used it on the NB and it was a lot of fun.So as Art mentioned, an 11' 7-weight is spot on.Disclaimer – I don't use it on the Potomac. Swinging flies is a waste of my time on this river, in my opinion.RFrom: Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders <tidal-potomac-fly-rodders@googlegroups.com > on behalf of Yang Chang <yangchang@gmail.com>

Subject: Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} double hand rods in PotomacTo view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/msThanks all for your kindly help! I will look for a 7wt 11' or 11'6" switch rod.I have only fished Walnut creek in Erie twice in the fall and want to explore more steelhead tribs in both spring and fall. Can you give me some general information about what season and which trib to look for steelhead? Thanks again!--On Fri, May 26, 2017 at 8:25 PM, 'Art Friedlander' via Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders <tidal-potomac-fly-rodders@googlegroups.com > wrote:Two more cents.I've been using a 12 1/2 foot 6 weight old Sage Graphite IV for many years for steelhead and on the Potomac. Perfect for me, mainly casting overhead.Another Art

Yep those rivers and mabey one or two to the west I would agree. In fact if I'm just swinging I use a 13 7 with a skagit setup. But for versatility and single hand casting I like the 11 footer.
I would suggest going to a flyshop and putting some different rods in your hand. Give them the ol wiggle test
