No weighted fly is correct, but unless they've changed the Reg's again, you can use a full sink line/tips. (Haven't looked it up.)No weight on line or fly and no indicators. Get a guide, its a tough stretch but well worth the effort.
Actually, studs are extremely popular there and one way to identify where people like to fish is by the scratches on rocks where people stand.
That said, I don't use them and do fine but a staff is a very good idea.
Lord you fish there! Scratches on top of a given rock (the only place you could cast) is one of the 'Now this is really different?'
Haha, I would love the Fred Translation book, as sometimes its very hard to read, haha.
There is only one method one should employ on such a stream... sometimes its not about the catching, but about the experience. Get yourself some classic salmon and steelhead flies, even if they are just NW "classics". Swing em and never say indicator. That is Umpqua. Enjoy!
