Switch Fast Fish More Rigged & Ready!

Switch Fast Fish More Rigged & Ready

Hook:
Stillwater conditions change fast if you can't keep up, you're already behind. Here's how to stay in the game and catch more fish.

Intro:
Welcome to the Stillwater Edge Podcast. I’m your host Greg Keenan, and today we’re digging into one of the most important super skills you can develop as a Stillwater angler how to switch your setup fast. This episode isn’t about efficiency for efficiency’s sake. It’s about catching fish when the conditions turn and the bite window opens. You need to be ready no hesitation, no fumbling. Let’s break down how to build a fast-switch system that keeps you fishing while others are still re-rigging.

Main Tips Covered:

Double Rod Setup:
Always have at least two rods rigged and ready one with a floater (for indicators and dries), and one with an intermediate or full sink (for stripping patterns). Prep these before you hit the water so you can grab and go without delay.

Method Swapping Without Downtime:
When switching methods, cast the next rod before you reel in the current one. Let one fish while you reset the other. That’s bonus time with your fly in the water.

Pre-Pick Your Backup Fly:
Know your next fly before your current one stops working. Have it ready with tippet, nippers, and weight change fast and fish fast. Don’t waste 7 minutes second-guessing flies.

Run a System:
Think like a system. Know your fly sequence, rigged rods, and method transitions ahead of time. A dialed process beats guesswork every time.

Outro:
Stillwater fishing rewards the angler who stays ready. Fast transitions mean more time fishing, and more time fishing means more hookups. If you found value in today’s episode, tag us and share your own quick-swap systems. Stay sharp, stay prepared, and I’ll see you on the water. Tight lines.
