Welcome to the Orvis Fly Fishing Guide Podcast with Tom Rosenbauer, bringing you tips, tricks and techniques to help you get the most from your time on the water.

Here's acclaimed fly fishing author and lifelong fly fishing

enthusiast Tom Rosenbauer.

Hi and welcome to the Orvis fly fishing guide podcast. This is Tom Rosenbauer and I have our blogger and editor Supreme Phil Monaghan here who's going to tell us a little bit about what's going on on Orvis News.com.

But before you do, today's podcast is being recorded on October 4, 2011,

the fourth day of Woodcock season in Vermont. not that it's done me any good.

Just in case you are listening to this later on in the year or in subsequent years and you want to know when we recorded it.

So Phil, what's going on?

Hey Tom, well as you said it's a woodcock season, which means it must be fall.

And the blog has certainly taken a turn towards fall in recent weeks, and we focus mostly on great fishing for brown trout this time of year, especially

with streamers.

And we got 10 tips for fall streamer fishing from Drew Price, one of our own Vermont boys,

although he lives farther upstate than we do.

And he offers some great advice on ways to go out and find big staging brown trout.

For those of you getting ready for the Saltwater Blitz, we have a great step-by-step tying video

from our friends at Tightline Productions about

how to tie the Tabery Snakefly.

Do you fish that one at all?

I use that a lot.

I use a black snakefly at night, a lot when I'm night fishing for strippers.

And it's a great pattern for pike bass, any sort of predatory fish.

It's a really sneaky, slithery looking streamer that is very tasty.
