--- Begin Message ---Fortunately, I seldom have a bird's nest any more but many a time I've had my fly dragging while looking in the box for a "better" pattern and caught trout or had strikes at least. Sometimes, before I leave a downstream lie, I'll try a float to the exact spot I want and just let it drag and get results after hammering the fish with a good drift repeatedly with nary an interested look. Go figure.
