Fly Fishing With Streamers: The Beginner's Guide | Ep. 153

同步导线、关节钩、抽拉收线、肉哨子。

Sync tip lines, articulated hooks, strip sets, meat whistles.

飞蝇钓大饵这块儿，术语稀奇古怪，技巧五花八门，理论也挺玄乎，可这还比不上咱们平时天天聊的干蝇、浮漂钓法和鱼竿角度呢。

The world of fly fishing streamers is full of this weird terminology, different techniques, and interesting theories, which is saying something considering we regularly talk about point flies, bounce rigs, and rod angles.

但大饵钓鱼效果确实没得说，尤其是对付大鱼的时候。

But there's no denying streamer fishing is effective, especially for bigger fish.

可刚上手的时候，真像在学一门全新的运动。

Getting started with it though can feel like you're learning a brand new sport.

某种程度上确实如此，但大饵钓鱼其实没看上去那么复杂。

Now in some ways you are, but streamer fishing is a lot simpler than it appears.

如果你会用干蝇和 nymph 钓到鱼，那基本的本事你早就有了。

If you can catch fish on dry flies and nymphs, you've already got most of the skills you need.

这周在《Untangled》里，我们会带你过一遍大饵钓鱼的基本要点，让你下次下水时心里有底。

This week on Untangled, we'll walk through the basics of fishing with streamers so you'll feel comfortable with it the next time you're out on the water.

这是《Untangled》，为每个人而做的飞蝇钓。

This is untangled, fly fishing for everyone.

本节目由Ventures Fly Co.赞助播出。

嘿，欢迎收听。

Hey, Welcome to it.

这里是《Untangled》，我是主持人斯宾塞·格兰特。

This is Untangled, and I am your host, Spencer Grant.

很高兴今天能和大家聊聊飞蝇钓饵的玩法。

Excited to be here and chat about streamer fishing this week.

我特别喜欢用飞蝇钓饵钓鱼，我知道自己常被当成干蝇钓的铁粉，这确实没错。

I I love fishing with streamers, And I know I've got a bit of a reputation for being a dry fly enthusiast, and that's not without warrant.

对吧？

Right?

我总在聊干蝇钓，但用飞蝇钓饵其实同样有趣，只是乐趣的方式不一样。

I talk about fishing dry flies all the time, but streamer fishing is equally as fun just in some different ways.

我真的特别享受这种钓法。

I I really enjoy it.

我平时确实更常用浮蝇，但抛流蝇是我第二喜欢的飞蝇钓法。

And I I do default to dry flies, but streamer fishing's my next favorite way to fly fish.

它带来的体验很不一样，我就特别喜欢大鳟鱼猛地冲向水里流蝇的那种感觉。

It's just it's engaging in a different way, and I love the feeling of a big angry trout just t boning that streamer in the river.

这种钓鱼方式既有趣又独特，特别能让人投入。

It's a fun, unique, engaging way to fish.

那我们这就直接进入正题。

So we're we're gonna get right into that.

不过在开始之前，我想特别感谢学校群里所有留言提问的朋友，你们关于流蝇钓的问题和想法我都看到了。

But before we cover that, I just wanna give a quick shout out and a thank you to everybody in the school group who left questions and comments about streamer fishing.

当我决定这期《Untangled》讲流蝇钓的时候，我在群里发了个帖子，问大家：你们在用流蝇时遇到哪些困惑？有哪些头疼的问题？

When I decided that this episode of Untangled is going to be about streamers, I dropped a post in school and asked, give me your questions, give me your frustrations, what are your pain points with fish and streamers?

大家的回应简直太棒了。

And the response I got was incredible.

你们的反馈非常精彩，今天这期节目就是根据你们的意见来做的。

Y'all knocked it out of the park and your responses really did shape the show today.

谢谢大家的分享。

So thank you all for that.

如果你还不知道‘School’是什么，简单说就是个像Facebook一样的平台，但完全不烦人。

And if you're not aware of what school is, best way to describe it is it's like Facebook, but it doesn't suck.

没有无聊的政治争论，也没有无意义的梗，就是一群钓鱼爱好者聊飞蝇钓、分享钓法和照片。

No stupid politics, no dumb memes, just bunch of bunch of anglers chatting about fly fishing, sharing pictures, patterns.

如果你没法经常去钓鱼，这里是个很棒的地方，能让你保持对钓鱼的热情。

It's a great place to hang out and and keep the fire alive if you can't be on the water as much as you'd like to be.

就我个人来说，我也没能经常去钓鱼，我不知道有没有人真的能做到。

And, you know, speaking just for myself, I'm not on the water as much as I'd like to be, so I don't know if anybody really is.

我会放个链接。

But I'll I'll drop a link.

如果你想加入School，节目说明里有链接，或者如果你在看视频播客，屏幕这里也会显示。

If you want to join school, there'll be a link in the show notes or right here on the screen if you're watching the video podcast.

去那里消磨点时间，真的很有趣。

It's a fun place to go spend some time.

再次感谢学校里所有留言并帮助打磨这一期节目的朋友。

And, again, big thank you to everybody in school who commented and helped shape this episode.

我真的非常感激。

I really appreciate it.

我们聊流饵的时候，第一件要谈的事，也是大家问得最多的问题，就是什么时候该用流饵，以及该在什么样的水域使用。

So the first thing that we have got to discuss when we are fishing streamers, and this was one of the most frequently asked questions, was when should you fish a streamer, and then what type of water should you fish them in.

对。

Yep.

秋天通常被认为是一年中最适合用流饵的季节，因为鱼儿正在为过冬囤积脂肪，而且很多鳟鱼，比如褐鳟和溪鳟，都会在秋季产卵。

Fall is often considered the best time of year to fish streamers because you've got fish packing on the pounds for winter, and then a lot of trout species like your browns and your brook trout will spawn in the fall.

这意味着河里会有很多状态激进的鱼。

So that means there's gonna be quite a few fish in the river who are aggressive.

它们在寻找大餐，这时候比一年中其他时候更愿意追击大型流饵。

They're looking for a big meal, and they're a lot more willing this time of year to chase down a big streamer than they are other times of the year.

所以现在，秋天正是抛流饵的好时机。

So right now, fall is a great time to be out chucking streamers.

事实上，亚历克斯和我刚和我们的好朋友瑞安·凯利一起去钓鱼了，他可是格林河那边有名的飞蝇钓手，在Instagram上挺活跃的。

In fact, Alex and I just went out with our good friend Ryan Kelly, green river fly fisher there on Instagram.

就在几周前，我们跟他一起钓鱼，钓到了一段特别不错的流蝇钓时段。

We were just fishing with him a couple weeks ago and got into some pretty pretty good stretch of streamer fishing.

那天的条件其实不算理想，待会儿我会细说。

It wasn't the best conditions for it, which we'll get into in in a minute here.

但就算条件不利，我们还是用流蝇钓到了几条不错的鱼。

But even with that working against us, we still caught some nice fish on streamers.

玩得特别开心。

It was a good time.

但别以为只有冬天或者——抱歉，是秋天才适合钓流蝇，其实冬天大部分时间都是偷偷摸摸的好钓期，尤其是你住在尾水区附近，那里的水温一年到头都挺稳定的。

But don't don't don't pigeonhole yourself into thinking that winter or pardon me, fall is the only time to fish streamers because most of winter is actually a sneaky good streamer season, especially if you live near a tailwater where the water is a pretty consistent temperature year round.

冬天反而是下手钓那些鱼的好时机。

Winter can be a great time to start plucking some of those fish.

早春时候也不错。

And then early spring can be good as well.

但根据我的经验，在我常去的水域，春季适合抛流饵的时间窗口通常比秋季要短得多，不过这可能不适用于你。

But I've found the window is just that in my experience, in my fisheries, and this might not be the same for you, but with where I fish, the window for great streamer fishing in the spring is usually narrower than it is in the fall.

所以我不会像在秋季和冬季那样，特别专注于春季的流饵钓鱼。

So I don't focus on spring streamers as much as I do fall and winter.

春季融雪期间确实有一小段时候，效果会不错。

There is that little time of of spring runoff where it can be pretty effective.

但那基本上就是你通常能碰上的好时机。

But that's that's kinda your general, you know, when.

其实一年到头，只要水色有点浑、水位稍高，都可以试试流饵。

You you can also fish them anytime throughout the year when the water is a little bit off color, when it's a little bit high.

不过要是水流太猛，鱼都会被冲到深水区，或者紧贴着岸边的缝隙里躲着。

But if it's a raging torrent, then all the fish are gonna be pushed pretty deep or they're gonna be in really tight pockets next to the bank.

那种情况下，用流饵钓鱼可能就不是最有效的方法了。

So streamer fishing might not be the most effective way to catch them then.

但如果水只是稍微高一点、颜色有点浑，那反而是抛流饵的好时机。

But if the water is just a little high and a little off color, that can be great time to chuck streamers as well.

另外，任何阴天都特别适合抛流饵，尤其是秋冬季节的阴天。

And then any overcast day is also gonna be great for streamer fishing, especially if you get a nice overcast fall or winter day.

因为早晚光线暗的时候，再加上云层遮挡，这些因素加在一起，会让鱼感觉安全多了。

Because early and late in the day when the light is low, and then that cloud cover when the cloud cover comes in too, all of all of that combines to make the fish feel a lot safer.

它们更愿意离开藏身之处，追着流饵游出去，甚至主动去吞食。

And they're they're a lot they've they're a lot more comfortable to leave their structure, chase a streamer down, and try and eat it.

尤其是鳟鱼，一旦追着流饵出击，就会完全暴露自己，所以它们得确保头顶没有天敌威胁。

Now trout, especially, are gonna expose themselves quite a lot when they chase a streamer down to eat it, so they wanna make sure they're protected from an overhead predator.

这就像我半夜偷吃零食，不想被老婆发现，得特别小心，不能让包装纸发出声响，也绝不敢进卧室吃。

It's kinda like when I'm trying to sneak a snack at night and I don't wanna share with my wife, I'm like, being real careful not to crinkle any wrappers or anything and and I don't go into the bedroom and eat it.

我就在厨房里偷偷吃，装作神不知鬼不觉的样子。

I eat it out the kitchen like, oh, I'm sneaking this.

鳟鱼也是这么想的。

The trout feel the same way.

它们得觉得安全、舒服，才会放心出来活动。

They they wanna know that they're safe and comfortable.

所以，阴天加上清晨和傍晚光线昏暗的时候，会让鳟鱼觉得更安全，更愿意游动。

And so those overcast days and then your low light situations early in the morning and late in the evening make the trout feel a lot safer about moving around.

因此，这些时段里用流饵钓鱼的效果往往会好很多。

So the streamer fishing really tends to pick up quite a lot during those periods of time.

如果正赶上大规模的昆虫羽化，比如蓝翅蜉蝣、小黑蚊，或者三翅蜉蝣大量出现，依我经验，鱼这时候通常对流饵就没太大兴趣了。

If there's a really big bug hatch going on, you've got a lot of blue wings hatching or midges coming off or even trichos, then the fish generally, in in my experience, don't pay a ton of attention to those streamers at that point.

它们更愿意直接吃那些飞舞的虫子。

They'll they'll snack on the bugs instead.

但如果只是零星看到几只虫子，这儿一只那儿一只，根本看不到鱼浮头吃虫，或者因为天冷风大根本没虫子出来，那这时候用流饵钓鱼反而会特别有效。

But if it's just kind of a sporadic catch where you're seeing a few of them here and a few of them there and you're not really seeing heads up and risers eating those bugs or bugs aren't hatching at all because it's cold and it's windy, then that's gonna make your streamer fishing even better.

如果这时候流饵是唯一活跃的食物来源，那钓鱼效果简直好到爆。

If that's really the only big food source that's moving around at that point, the streamer fishing can be pretty stinking good.

我刚才说了一大堆，咱们简单总结一下。

So just to recap all of that because I know that was a ton.

我会在秋冬季节、阴天，还有水位高的时候用流饵钓鱼。

I will fish streamers in fall and winter, when it's overcast, and then during high water.

大晴天的夏天，或者有大规模虫子羽化的时候，我从来不用流饵钓鱼。

I won't fish streamers on bright sunny days, mid summer, or when a big hatch is coming off.

我就喜欢把钓鱼范围牢牢限定在这些条件下。

I just like to keep it all within within those confines.

在我们转到该在什么水域使用流饵之前，我再快速说一点，确保大家都清楚。

And then something else before we move on to what type of water to fish them in, just real quick so that we're all clear.

我们之前在课上收到很多这样的问题：流饵到底模仿的是什么？

This is another question that we we got a bunch in school was, what exactly do streamers imitate?

我们知道干蝇和 nymph 是模仿水生昆虫，但当你拿出一个四英寸长的‘Slump Buster’或者‘Meat Whistle’之类的饵时，

We understand that dry flies and nymphs are imitating aquatic insects, but then you pull out a, you know, a big four inch slump buster or meat whistle or whatever.

这玩意儿到底是在模仿什么？

What's that supposed to be?

流饵主要是模仿小鱼，比如红侧闪鱼、其他小鱼苗之类的。

Well, streamers are meant to imitate bait fish, red side shiners, other minnows, kinda like that.

说实话，其他鳟鱼也会把它们当成各种东西来吃。

Other trout, honestly, they'll they'll imitate a lot of them.

它们模仿水蛭、小龙虾这些体型较大的水生生物，不是昆虫，就是到处游荡的家伙，你的流饵就是要模仿这些更大的猎物，你那些小虫子根本没法冒充。

They'll imitate leeches, crawdads, those bigger aquatic life forms that aren't insects, that are just cruising around, that's what your streamers are gonna imitate, those bigger ticket meal items that that your your tiny little bugs are never gonna pass for.

所以，那些能让鱼主动追击的大块头，才是你流饵要模仿的对象。

So that the big stuff that the fish are gonna move for, that's what your streamer is tied up to imitate.

因为我们都清楚，所有鳟鱼到了一定阶段都会变得凶猛，变成吃鱼的家伙。

Because as we know, all the trout get predatory and piscivorous, which means they'll eat other fish at some point.

所以它们会开始吃小鱼苗。

So they'll start snacking on little minnows.

实在没得吃的时候，它们甚至会互相吞食。

They'll cannibalize each other sometimes if they really have to.

它们特别爱吃小龙虾。

And then they love crawdads.

它们也特别喜欢水蛭。

They love leeches.

能模仿这些生物，就等于给你多了一件工具，能把逼真的饵虫送到鱼嘴边。

So being able to imitate those, just giving you another tool in that toolbox to put flies in front of fish and make them look real.

我们会让它们看起来像鱼会主动去吃的东西。

We'll make them look like something those fish are gonna go ahead and eat.

那我们来聊聊适合抛投飞蝇饵的水流类型吧。

So let's talk about what type of water that we need to fish these streamers in.

我个人在除了急流以外的任何水型里都更容易钓到鱼。

Personally, I have the most luck in any water type except for riffles.

急流就是河流里那些水浅、流速快的区域，结构特别少。

So riffles are those shallow quick sections of a river where there's very little structure in riffles.

鱼在急流里很难藏身。

The fish can't really hide in the riffles too much.

尤其是秋冬季节，急流里的水位很低，水质也特别清澈。

And especially in fall and winter, the water's super low and super clear in the riffles.

所以在秋冬季节，你不太容易在急流里找到鱼，不像夏天有时候一整天都能碰上。

So finding the fish there in the winters and the falls, not the not the most common thing you're gonna see, especially all day like they will be in the summer sometimes.

这并不是说鱼在急流里就绝对不吃飞蝇饵，但要是我在秋天抛投飞蝇饵，我通常会瞄准缓流区、深水潭、岸边的静水坑，或者任何水流交界的地方——只要是有鱼待着的好水区，我都会找。

And this isn't to say that fish absolutely won't eat streamers and ripples, but if I'm tossing streamers during the fall, I'm targeting my runs, pools, any of the pockets of calm water near the banks, any of the seams, anything like that that I can find where it's it's just good fishy water, places where where fish are gonna hang out.

急流确实是鱼喜欢待的地方，但秋天和冬天就不那么理想了。

Riffles are great fishy water, but not so much during fall and winter.

其他那些地方结构多一点，藏身之处也多，鱼可以躲着伏击路过的饵鱼、水蛭、小龙虾什么的。

All these other places that got just a bit more structure, a bit more cover for the fish to hang out and ambush whatever, you know, bait fish, leech, crawdad, whatever is swimming by them.

所以我找的就是这种水区。

So that is the type of water that I'm looking for.

其实，这种水跟用 nymph 钓法时想找的水差不多。

Really, it it's pretty similar to the type of water you'd wanna fish your nymph rigs through.

这种地方，不管是用流蝇还是其他钓法，都挺合适的。

That that's the kind of water you'd also want to stream or fish as well.

接下来我们聊聊上游钓法的装备搭配。

Let's talk next about rigging upstreamers.

这也是我们常被问到的一个问题。

This is another very common question that we got.

我用六重量的竿子来钓鳟鱼流蝇最合适。

I prefer to use a six weight rod for trout streamers.

这正是我最常用的。

That's my favorite.

我平时就用这个。

That's my go to.

即使是大一点的鳟鱼流蝇，用六号竿也完全没问题。

Even the larger trout streamers are fine on a six weight.

我还会搭配一条沉水型线。

And then I also use a sink tip line.

六号竿配上沉水线。

So a six weight with a sink tip line.

六号竿和六号线够重，能轻松应付大号流蝇，要是白天突然想换 nymph 钓法，或者刮起点风，它也比五号竿更顺手。

That six weight rod and the six weight line, they're heavy enough that they'll handle those larger streamers just fine, but it can handle nymphing very well if you decide that you need to switch things up during the middle of the day or if you just, you know, a little bit of wind comes up, it's it's just gonna be a better rod for streamers than that five weight.

选竿的关键，得看你要抛投的蝇饵有多大。

Because you pick the rod that you need based on the size of flies that you're gonna throw.

五号竿也能应付各种尺寸的蝇饵，表现不错，但六号竿就是专门为大而重的蝇饵设计的。

Five weights can throw a a pretty wide range of flies, do very well, but a six weight is really designed to handle heavier, bigger flies.

所以我钓大型飞蝇时，总是倾向于用这个配置。

So that's why I gravitate towards that for my streamer fishing.

如果你经常钓特别大的飞蝇，目标也是比普通鳟鱼大得多的鱼，比如鲈鱼——哎呀，我突然说不下去了。

Now if you're consistently fishing a lot bigger streamers and you're checking for a lot bigger fish than most trout, if you're going after buy buy I can't talk.

一个说不出话的播客主持人，太丢人了，赶紧切出去吧。

Podcast host that can't talk, that's embarrassing is all get out.

我把鲈鱼和狗鱼合在一起说，省得啰嗦。

Bass, I try to combine bass and pike together into one word there.

如果你目标是鲈鱼、狗鱼或者鲤鱼，这时候用七号或八号竿就特别合适，因为你用的饵更大。

If you're going after bass, pike, or carp, seven or an eight weight is a really good option at that point because you're throwing a little bit bigger bugs.

而且这些鱼本身体型也更大，尤其是鲤鱼，能长得非常大。

And then they're bigger fish generally too, especially the carp can get really big.

所以用更硬更重的竿子，能更有效地把它们拉上来。

So having a stiffer heavier rod will help you land those fish more effectively.

但如果是常见的十二号到二号这种尺寸的鳟鱼飞蝇，六号竿抛投起来真的无可替代。

But for most trout flies that are in that size twelve to all the way down to about a two hook size, they're they're really it's really hard to beat how well a six weight will toss those.

这就是我对这个问题的看法。

So that that's just my 2¢ on it.

我喜欢用同步下沉线，因为它能让流饵快速下沉。

I do like a sync tip line because it helps get those streamers down quickly.

而且它的优点是，这段较长的下沉线接在浮线前端，整个收线过程中都能保持稳定的深度。

And then the nice thing about it is that sync tip line since it's a longer piece of sinking line and it's on the tip of some floating line, it keeps that at a nice level depth for the entirety of the retrieve.

这样饵的呈现方式就非常自然。

So it's got a very natural presentation to those flies.

如果你只是用一根超长的前导线，指望靠它让饵沉下去，饵的运动角度可能会很奇怪，不够自然。

If you're just trying to fish a really long leader off of a floating line just to get it to sink deep enough, you can get kind of a weird angle that the flies are being pulled up at that's not necessarily supernatural.

而且没有下沉线的话，饵下沉得慢得多。

And then it takes a lot longer for those flies to sink without the sink tip line.

在河里钓鱼时，让饵快速下沉特别重要，因为你通常没多少水域可以覆盖。

And if you're on a river, getting those flies to sink quickly is pretty stinking important because you're you usually don't have a huge long range of of water to fish.

得赶紧让饵沉下去，送到鱼所在的区域，进入咬饵带——就像我们用 nymph 时一样，越快沉到水底越好。

You've gotta get them down quick, get them to where the fish are, get in that strike zone just like we do with our nymphs, you want them down there pretty quickly.

所以这些就是我选择使用沉水导线的所有原因。

So that those are all the reasons that I go for that sink tip line.

我用的这条线有15英尺的沉水段，下沉速度大概是每秒三英寸。

I use a line that's got a 15 foot sink tip and it sinks at about three inches per second.

我发现这对我去钓鱼的那些地方和目标鱼种来说特别合适，因为在深水区它能够快速下沉。

I found that's a pretty good all around sink tip line for the places I fish and the fish that I'm fishing to because it'll sink quickly enough in the deep spots.

而在浅水区，我只要稍微收快一点，通常就不会挂底。

And then in the shallower stuff, I can just strip it a little bit faster if I need to and usually doesn't get hung up on the bottom too much.

不过这就是我最常用的搭配。

But that that's what I like to use.

当然，如果你在钓小一点、浅一点的水域，其实并不一定非得用沉水导线。

Now you don't absolutely need a sync tip line, especially if you're fishing smaller shallower water.

在那种情况下，用重一点的拟饵也完全没问题，但用了确实更有帮助。

A heavy streamer can work just fine in those instances, but it helps.

真的能带来很大提升。

It really does help a lot.

买一条沉头线这笔钱花得值。

It's worth spending the money on just buying a sync tip line.

你没必要花一百二十美元这么贵，但一条好的沉头线确实能提升你的流蝇钓鱼效果。

You don't have to spend a $120 on them or anything crazy like that, but a good sync tip line will help with your streamer fishing.

至于流蝇的导线，我待会儿会在屏幕上放张图，方便看视频播客的朋友们参考，但我完全不用渐细导线，我认识的那些顶尖流蝇钓手也都不这么干。

And then as for a leader with our streamers, and I'll throw a graphic for this on the screen for those who are watching the video podcast so you can you can see this, but I don't use a tapered leader with my streamer rigs at all, and the best streamer anglers I know don't do that either.

因为我发现，用四到五英尺长、10到12磅的氟碳线，流蝇抛起来顺多了。

Because I've found that streamers just cast a lot better if I use about a four to five foot piece of 10 or 12 pound fluorocarbon.

这段线够长也够结实，能扛得住在水底撞石头、挂底这些折腾，同时也能把飞蝇甩得开、翻得正。

That chunk of lines long enough or strong enough, pardon me, that it it'll hold up to the abuse of getting bumped on all the rocks on the bottom, getting snagged or whatnot, but it also turns the flies over well.

它有足够的重量，能把大号飞蝇彻底甩开。

It's got enough mass to it that it'll turn that big fly over.

如果你用九英尺、5X的渐细导线去抛一个大号的Slump Buster，那飞蝇本身挺重，可导线太细，会把抛投的能量全吸掉，结果一抛就团成一团。

Because if you if you try to use, like, a nine foot five x tapered leader on a big old size four slump buster, that fly, pardon me, it's got a lot of weight to it, but that tippet is so thin it's gonna zap so much of that energy out of the cast that it's really gonna pile up.

根本就展不开。

It's not gonna straighten out.

这样子根本没法把饵翻过去。

It's not gonna turn over very nice for you.

你根本没法让饵自然地漂下去。

You're gonna you're you're really gonna struggle to get that to present right.

而且一旦鱼猛咬一口，这根5X的线根本扛不住。

And then on top of that, you know, a fish hits it really hard and that five x leader is not super strong.

鱼一咬、水流一拉、你再一提，这条线分分钟就断了。

It's really easy to snap that between the force of a fish hitting it and the current pulling on it, and then you pulling on it as well.

所以换成10到12磅的氟碳线就靠谱多了。

So stepping up that 10 or 12 pound fluorocarbon is great.

我一般就用四到六英尺这么一段。

Again, I just I use like four to six feet worth of it.

直接用完美环结或者钉结，连到你的飞线末端就行。

Just tie that on with a perfection loop to the end of my fly line or a nail knot, whatever you're using there.

然后我的飞蝇就用临床结直接绑上去。

And then I just attach my streamers with a clinch knot.

我对流蝇上的环结其实不太在意。

I don't really worry about loop knots on my streamers.

我觉得它们并没有带来多大区别。

I haven't found them to make a huge difference.

我就用 clinch 结。

I just use the clinch knot.

这个结很管用。

It works well.

这样我也不太会因为结打不好而丢掉流蝇。

I don't lose too many streamers to bad knots that way.

所以这又是我找到的适合自己的方法。

So that's again, this is just what I found that works for me.

别怕多试试，找到更适合你和你那条河的方式，但这就是我的做法。

So don't be afraid to play around with it and until it works better for you and your rivers, but this is what I do.

接下来我们聊聊怎么抛投这些饵，以及怎么收线。

So let's now move on to talking about how we cast these things and how we retrieve the streamers.

我觉得在学校里，关于这个话题我们被问得最多的，就是这些问题。

And I think out of all the questions we got in school about this topic, these were probably the most common.

该怎么抛投这些飞蝇，之后又该怎么收线呢？

How do I cast them and then how do I retrieve these streamers?

抛投的时候，你用的是同步导线，加上一个大流蝇，重量不小。

So when you're casting, you've got the sync tip line, you've got a big streamer, there's a lot of weight involved.

但因为飞蝇竿特别擅长把重量转化成能量，把线甩出去，根本不需要做假抛。

And with all that weight, because fly rods are very effective tools of transferring weight and turning it into energy and then shooting that line out there, you don't need to make a false cast.

几乎完全没有必要做假抛。

There's almost no reason to do that.

如果你要抛特别远的距离，也许需要，但大多数流蝇抛投其实没那么远，尤其是在河里。

If you're making a really long cast, you might need it, but most streamer casts also aren't that long, especially on rivers.

所以你只需要一次回抛加一次前抛，只要手法对，就能把飞蝇送到位。

So you really just need a single back cast and a single forward cast, and that'll get your flies out there if you're using the correct technique.

那你可能会问，正确的手法到底是什么？

Now what's that correct technique you ask?

那咱们就来聊聊这个吧。

Well, let's let's get into that.

明白吗？

Okay?

要避免做太多假抛，关键别在沉底线段还深埋水下的时候，就想把整条线都拉起来抛出去。

A good way to make sure that you're you're not doing too many false casts is you don't wanna try and pick up and cast all of your line when the sink tip portion of your line is still deep underwater.

那样只会惹出一堆麻烦。

That's just gonna create a lot of problems.

你应该先把线拉到水面，最好能把沉底那段拉到离竿尖导环只有几英尺远的地方。

You wanna get it up to the surface and ideally, you'll pull that sink tip portion of your line to within like a few feet of your tip top guide at the end of your rod.

然后你可以把剩下的线全部收回来，让沉底线几乎全收进竿身，再做一个简单的卷抛。

And then what you can do is you can strip all the way in, get that sink tip line almost all the way in, and then just make a quick little roll cast.

这样做的效果是，让沉底线浮到水面，同时把整条线从竿尖顺畅地甩出去，而且很明显，它现在是浮在水面上的。

And what this does is that gets your sink tip line on top of the water that gets lined out of the tip of your rod and it's again, clearly, it's on top of that water.

它不会再往下沉了。

It's not sinking.

你不需要对抗那么大的张力来完成抛投。

You're not fighting all of that tension to make your cast.

你只需要做一次后抛、一次前抛，这条线和流蝇都很重，

Then all you have to do is make one back cast, one forward cast, and that line and that streamer, they're so heavy.

它们自然就会飞出去。

They're just gonna kinda shoot out there.

你还可以用双抽法让线速更快一点，飞得更远。

And then you can also go ahead and use a double haul to speed that line up a little bit and help it shoot further.

但其实就这么简单。

But that's that's really it.

明白吗？

K?

真的就这么简单粗暴。

It it really is that stinking simple.

你之所以要避免用流蝇做太多假抛，一是容易缠线，二是它们又重又快，特别是你用双抽的时候。

The reason you wanna make sure that you're not casting too many false casts with a streamers, a, they can be easy to tangle sometimes, then b, they're heavy and they move quickly, especially if you're double hauling.

它们会在空中飞来飞去。

They're gonna be flying through the air.

如果你不小心，这些流子可能会打中你的脑袋，那可真够疼的。

And if you're not careful, you're gonna beam yourself in the head with one of these streamers and it does not feel good.

我好多次都这么干过。

I've done that many times.

更糟的是，你要是没抛好，流子撞上竿尖，能把竿子撞断。

Or even worse, you are going to make a cast that's not super great and your streamers gonna hit the tip of your rod and shatter it.

要是你跟我一样，不小心弄断了朋友吉恩的竿子，就得在他划船的时候把竿子递过去，说：吉恩，我把你竿子弄坏了。

And then if you're like me and you do that to your buddy Gene's rod, you have to hand in the rod while he's rowing the boat and say, Gene, I broke your rod.

然后一整天你都会觉得自己特丢人，因为你把人家的竿子弄坏了。

And then you feel like a jerk for the rest of the day because you broke his rod.

我确实出钱给他修了竿子，但就算这样，我还是觉得特别愧疚，毕竟我弄坏了他那根该死的竿子。

Now, I did pay for his rod to get repaired, but still, it doesn't change the fact that I felt like a jerk for breaking his stinking rod.

所以，这就是抛投部分要注意的。

So that's the casting portion of it.

关于收线，最重要的是别想太多。

As far as the retrieves go, the key here is just to not overthink it.

我知道说起来容易做起来难，但我的意思是，我见过很多人问特别具体的问题，比如在某种情况下，什么样的收线方式最好？

And I know that's a lot easier said than done, but what I mean by this is I I saw a lot of folks asking very specific questions about retrieves where the question was like, what's the best retrieve pattern or retrieve style for such and such situation?

说实话，这得看当天的情况。

And honestly, it depends on the day.

真的完全要看当天的状态。

It it really does.

有时候，鱼儿就喜欢流线饵几乎不动。

Some days, the fish want those streamers barely moving.

它们希望饵沉得深，就轻轻抽动一下。

They want them super deep and just twitching.

但另一些日子，它们又喜欢饵动得快一点。

Other days, they want them moving a little bit faster.

除非流线饵在水里游得特别流畅，不然它们根本不会咬。

They're not gonna commit and make that eat unless that streamer's really cooking through the water.

所以得你自己去摸索出那是什么感觉。

So it's on you to figure out what that is.

我个人的做法是，一整天都从比较慢的收线开始。

Now, personally, what I like to do is I start the day out with a relatively slow retrieve.

我会先做几下短促的抽线。

I'll do a couple of quick short strips.

停一下，然后再来一下长的抽线。

I'll pause for a second, then I'll do one long strip.

速度稍微慢一点。

It's a little bit slower.

然后重复这个节奏。

Then I'll repeat that pattern.

我会一直用这个方式收线，直到钓到鱼为止。

I'll retrieve my flies pretty consistently with that pattern until I start getting fish.

一旦鱼上钩了，我就尽量保持同样的收线方式，直到没再有鱼咬钩。

And then once the fish eat, then I'll try to mimic that same retrieve until the action stops.

如果咬钩停了，我回去微调时，就会加快节奏。

And if if it stops and I go back to tweaking it a little bit, I'll speed things up.

我会先做极短极慢的抽动，然后再来一下又快又长的。

I'll go really really short and slow and then really fast and longer.

反正就是怎么有效怎么来。

You know, whatever it is.

不管怎么调整检索速度，我一整天都会不断试验，直到钓到鱼，然后就尽量复制那种节奏，直到不再上鱼，再重新调整，反复尝试。

However, I want to change that retrieve speed up, I I will just continue tweaking it throughout the day until I catch fish, then I'll try and mimic that as much as I possibly can until I quit catching fish, and then I'll, you know, change things up again and again.

流饵钓鱼的关键就在于摸清鱼儿想要什么样的动作，以及它们在多深的位置咬钩。

And that's really the name of the game with streamer fishing is just figuring out how they want it, how deep they want it.

一定要确保你的流饵始终在水里。

Keep really just make sure you keep your streamer in the water.

尤其是看到鱼跟着饵游，却迟迟不咬的时候，更要不断调整速度。

You keep playing with the speed, especially if you see a lot of fish following it, but maybe not committing to it.

不停地换速度试试。

Just keep changing the speed.

一直动它。

Keep moving it.

明白吗？

K?

别把它老拿在水面上不动，要一直动，不断调整节奏。

Don't just don't don't hold it out of the water and think, keep moving it, keep playing around with it.

你很快就能找到最合适的收线速度。

You're gonna find that retrieval speed pretty quickly.

别想得太复杂。

And again, don't overthink it.

你只是想让它在水里游得像条小鱼那样。

You're just trying to make it move through the water like some kind of bait fish or something.

你也是在激发鱼的捕食本能，所以不用追求完美。

You're also trying to trigger a predatory strike, so it doesn't need to be perfect.

懂了吗？

Okay?

尽量多摆弄它，越频繁越好。

Just play with it as much as you possibly can.

我涉水钓鱼的时候，特别喜欢把流蝇抛向对岸。

Now when I'm wade fishing, I really like to toss my streamers up towards the opposite bank.

我会以一个比较陡的角度抛出，然后快速向下拉动，让流蝇穿过我目标的水流或水潭。

I'll do that at a pretty sharp angle, and then I will strip quickly downstream through the run or the pool that I was targeting.

等漂移快结束时，让流蝇在我下方自然摆动一下，接着就直接再抛一次。

And then I'll let my streamer swing a little bit at the end of the drift below me, and then I'll just go ahead and make another cast.

这种方式能高效地覆盖大片水域。

It's a great way to cover quite a bit of water.

鱼的反应会特别多。

It gets a lot of action to it.

而且这种收线方式特别简单，就是快速拉动，尤其在小河里涉水钓鱼的时候。

And then it's a very simple way to retrieve because you're just going pretty quick, especially if you're wade fishing a smaller river.

要是遇到大水潭之类的，那时候再换别的方法玩也不迟。

If you come onto a big pool or whatever, that's when you can you can play things a little bit differently.

你会根据水流速度和水深来调整，但遇到急流的时候，就直接往对岸那个角度甩出去。

You'll work with speed and the depth and whatnot, but the faster runs and whatnot, that's when you can that's when you just throw it up there at that sharper angle.

就让飞蝇在水里拖着走，保持线的连接，然后让它自然摆动一下。

Just pull it through the water, keep connected with that fly, and then let it swing a little bit.

举个例子，我以前住在犹他州的时候，有一条小溪我经常去钓。

And just an example of this, back when I lived in Utah, there was this little stream that I used to fish.

特别喜欢那条溪。

Loved it.

有一天我就想，今天干脆用流蝇试试。

And one day I just said, I'm gonna chuck streamers on it.

说不上来为什么，就是突然想用流蝇去钓一钓。

I don't know why, but I just wanna go chuck a streamer on it.

那条溪也不算宽。

And it's not too wide.

最多也就十五到二十英尺宽吧。

I mean, we're talking maybe fifteen fifteen, 20 feet wide at the most.

所以我就会做我刚才说的那样。

So I would do exactly what I just described.

我会把流饵抛到对岸，角度要陡一点，然后在靠近岸边的缓流区快速收线。

I would throw my streamer to the opposite bank pretty at a pretty sharp angle, and then I just strip really quickly in all of that nice kinda slack water against the bank.

等流饵进入主水流后，我就让它自然摆动，再拉回来，一边沿着河岸往上走，一边重复这个动作。

And then once the streamer got into the current, I'd let it swing, I'd pull it up to me, and I just repeat that as I walked up the river.

大多数时候，我只要往对岸抛一次，收一两下，鱼就会立刻咬钩。

And I would, most of the time, I would toss it to that opposite bank, strip it once or twice, and a fish would be on like that.

鱼就躲在主水流和岸边之间的那片水里，一看到就猛冲上来咬。

It would just come out and smack it because they're holding in that water between the main current and the bank.

它们就在那儿闲逛着。

They're just hanging out.

一看到饵就注意到了。

They'd see that.

马上游上来一口咬住。

They'd come up and hit it.

从来都没什么特别的。

And was never anything crazy.

从来没有任何特殊的收线方式。

Never never any special retrieval pattern.

我也没去数收线的次数。

I wasn't counting my retrieves.

就是把饵抛出去，随便动一动，跟那个假蝇玩儿着来。

I was just throwing it out there, moving it, and and just playing with that fly.

所以，希望这一点能说清楚了：一整天里，你都要不断尝试、不断调整收线的方式。

So that is the hopefully, that drives the point home of just continue to to mess with it and continue to tweak that retrieve as much as you can throughout the day.

好了。

Alright.

我们还得聊聊怎么刺鱼和感受咬钩。

We've also got to talk about setting the hook and then feeling bites.

这又是我们收到的一个问题。

This is another question we got.

但当鱼咬你的流蝇时，你绝对能感觉到。

But when that fish bites your streamer, you're gonna know.

我保证。

I I I promise.

我每次去钓鱼，就像一阵风刮过，方圆十英里内的健怡可乐全得被抢光，你立马就知道我来了。

It's like when I show up to go fish somewhere, you're gonna know I'm there because all the Diet Coke's gonna be cleared out of every store within, like, a 10 mile radius.

明白吗？

Okay?

不是。

No.

真正的感觉是，好像有什么东西猛地要把你的钓竿从手里拽走；最起码，你也会感觉到线尾有东西在拉扯。

What it's really gonna feel like though is it's gonna feel like something is yanking the rod out of your hands Or at a at a bare minimum, it's gonna feel like there's something on the end of your line, something tugging on it.

所以一旦发生这种情况，千万别用钓鳟鱼那种老办法——绷紧线，快速抬竿。

So when that happens, you don't want to do that traditional trout set where you hold your line tight and lift your rod firmly but quickly up into the air.

那样只会把流蝇从鳟鱼嘴里直接扯出来。

That's just gonna rip your streamer out of a trout's mouth.

你应该做的是这种叫‘收线刺鱼’的动作。

What you wanna do instead is do this thing that's called a strip set.

鱼一咬钩，你就用拿线的那只手猛地往回收线。

So when the fish bites, what you're gonna do is you're gonna strip really hard with your line hand.

使劲儿拉，再拉，再拉，把钩子牢牢扎进去。

You're just gonna pull, pull, pull really hard, drive that hook point home.

等你拉了几下之后，就可以用鱼竿往侧面引导了。

And then once you've made that couple of hard strips, you can use your rod to either side.

通常往收线的方向弯竿，保持侧向用力，这样能更好地把钩子钉稳。

Usually, bend it in the direction that you're stripping the line, and then do that at a side angle, and that's gonna help drive that hook point home.

你会明显感觉到的。

You're gonna feel it.

可以把鱼竿稍微往侧面弯，帮助钩子扎得更深。

You can bend the rod to the side a little bit, help drive that hook point home.

等鱼上钩了，如果需要，再稍微抬一下竿尖，但保持侧向压力才是控鱼更有效的方法。

And then once the fish is on, that's when you can lift the tip a little bit if you need to, but keeping that side pressure on them is a more effective way to fight the fish anyways.

这就是所谓的拉线刺鱼。

So that's that's strip set.

它其实是让你摆脱用 nymph 和干蝇时那种传统的刺鱼习惯。

It it is undoing the muscle memory of the hook sets with your nymphs and your dry flies.

我觉得很多人在这上面都会栽跟头。

And I'd probably see this trip more people up than anything else.

这事儿真不容易记住。

And it's hard to remember.

我有时候也会忘。

I forget it sometimes.

之前我和瑞安、亚历克斯去钓流饵的时候，我就遇到几条鱼咬钩，结果下意识用了鳟鱼刺鱼法，因为这动作太根深蒂固了。

When me, Ryan, and Alex were out fishing streamers like I was mentioning earlier, I trout set on a couple of the bites that I got because it's just so ingrained.

你得不断提醒自己：别，别那样。

You have to remind yourself, k, no.

拉线刺鱼。

Strip set.

收线刺竿。

Strip set.

所以这得花点时间适应，但你就得这么干。

So it takes a little bit of time, but that that's how you gotta do it.

最后，咱们聊聊尺寸和颜色吧。

And then lastly, let's talk about size and colors.

明白吗？

Okay?

市面上流饵的款式多得数不清，我知道不少人对某一种款式特别迷信。

There's a million different streamer patterns out there and I know a lot of folks who swear by this one or by that one.

说实话，这些年我用过好多不同款式的流饵，都钓到过鱼。

And in all honesty, I've had a lot of luck with a lot of different streamer patterns over the years.

我觉得关键不在于用什么具体款式，而在于你怎么去钓它。

So I think it's a lot more about how you fish it than really what pattern you're using.

归根结底，你用流饵是为了模仿水里生物的游动姿态和外形，同时也要激发掠食者的攻击本能。

Because at the end of the day, you're using that streamer to mimic the the movement and the shape of something in the water, but you're also triggering a predatory strike.

很多时候，结果都会让你意想不到。

And a lot of times, you'll it'll surprise you.

如果你经常玩流蝇，总会钓到一些鱼，它们的体型比你的蝇饵还小，或者干脆和蝇饵差不多大。

If you fish the streamers a lot, you'll end up catching a a fish where the streamer's bigger than the fish or, like, the same size as the fish.

你都会纳闷：这家伙怎么就敢吞这么大的东西？

And you wonder, dude, what what convinced you that you could eat this?

你干嘛这么拼命冲过来咬钩？

Why did you come and freight train it like that?

这种事你经常能碰到。

So you'll see that often.

所以我也不是很相信蝇饵图案本身有多关键。

So that's another reason why I'm not super sold on patterns mattering a ton.

不过像大西洋鲑鱼或者钢头鱼这类钓鱼，图案确实重要，尤其是颜色这些细节。

Now for things like Atlantic salmon or steelhead fishing or whatnot, the patterns definitely do matter, especially color and whatnot.

但说到旅行钓鱼，我真没法坐在这儿跟你说：‘你就用这个，别用那个。’

But for a lot of your travel fishing, I I don't it's hard for me to sit here and tell you, oh, well, use these ones and don't use these ones.

关键其实是找到你自己喜欢的，同时当地鱼也喜欢的那些蝇饵。

It really is just about finding finding ones you like, finding ones that the fish around you like as well.

我比较偏好用很多马毛或兔毛做的蝇饵，配上较重的铅头，但闪光材料不多。

I tend to favor a lot of patterns that got a lot of marabou or rabbit on them along with a lot of weight, and then not not a ton of flash.

我喜欢一点闪光，但不喜欢太夸张。

I I like some, but not I don't like it overdone.

我做的蝇饵一定要有很强的动态感。

I want a lot of movement in my streamers.

我钓鱼的地方的鱼，看起来就特别喜欢这种效果。

That's what the fish where I am fishing, that's what they seem to like.

它们喜欢那种马毛和兔毛带来的强烈、有节奏的摆动。

They like a lot of movement, a lot of pulsating movement that you get with the rabbit and the marabou.

但对你来说，情况可能不一样。

But for you, it could be different.

你那边的鱼说不定更喜欢低调一点的款式。

Your fish could like something a little bit more understated.

比如，它们可能会喜欢克劳泽小鱼，这还挺有意思的。

They might like the clowzer minnow, for example, which it's funny.

克劳泽钓饵确实很棒。

The Clouser's great.

我用它在阿拉斯加钓到过不少不错的鲑鱼和多利瓦德鱼。

I've used it to catch some nice salmon, some nice dolivard up in Alaska.

但当我把克劳泽钓饵用在犹他州的格林河时，不知为啥，效果一直不太理想。

But then when I throw Clousers on the Green River in Utah, for example, they never really do too well for me there for whatever reason.

虽然这钓饵本身很好，但我在这条河上用它，从来都没能钓到很多鱼。

Even though they're a great fly, I've just never had them produce a ton of fish for me in that river.

每个钓点都不一样，关键是要多试不同的款式，看看鱼到底喜欢哪种，而不是非得用什么‘肉哨’或者‘贡加’不可。

So every fishery is gonna be different, and it's a lot it's a lot more of playing with the different patterns and just seeing what your fish like more so than it is, oh, I've gotta use the meat whistle or I've gotta use the Gonga, nothing else.

重点是，鱼到底喜欢什么？

It's it's what are the fish like?

好的。

K.

然后就用这个饵试试。

And then just fish that one.

至于颜色，我确实会留意一条老规矩：天亮的时候用亮色的 flies，天暗的时候用深色的。

And then colors, I I do pay attention to the rule of if it's a bright day, you wanna fish bright flies.

天色暗的时候，就用深色的 flies。

And if it's a dark day, you wanna fish dark flies.

这是飞钓圈的老话了，对我特别管用。

It's an old saying in fly fishing, and that really seems to work for me.

不过我平时也常选白色配金色，或者白色配棕色的饵。

But I also tend to just fish a lot of flies that are white and gold or white and brown.

我特别喜欢白色调的。

I like a lot of that white.

我包里总会备一些黑色的，但一般还是先试白色配金色或白色配棕色的，因为这两种颜色在水里特别显眼。

I'll always have some black on hand, but I usually go to that white and gold or white and brown coloration first because I really like the way those colors contrast in the water.

我觉得它们在冬天和秋天清澈的浅水里，能明显区别于其他东西。

I think it stands out very well from everything else, especially in the low clear water of winter and fall.
