In this episode of our Spey for Steelhead series, we dive deep into one of the most important parts of successful steelheading: understanding depth control. We break down casting angles, fly selection, sink-tip choices, and the key techniques that help you achieve and maintain the right depth in a variety of water types.

Part 1:
• How casting angle changes depth and swing speed
• Matching flies to conditions
• Sink-tip selection for different situations
• Techniques for fishing high, mid, and low columns effectively

Part 2:
We shift into river conditions—how to read them, understand them, and use them to your advantage.
• How to interpret river gauges
• Understanding flows, trends, and water clarity
• Identifying productive steelhead water in changing conditions

If you’re looking to become more confident and intentional with your spey presentation—and catch more steelhead—this episode has you covered.
