Summary

This week I interview Shawn Brillon, the King of Swing here at Orvis. He’s a master at strategizing on swinging flies for both Atlantic salmon and steelhead, and his strategy works for trout streamers and wets as well. It should serve to get you jazzed up for steelhead season—I know it did for me. In the Fly Box, we talk about landlocked Atlantic salmon, best all-around line for a switch rod, a basic saltwater outfit and flies for almost anywhere in the world, plus I get pressed to pick which three fly rods I would pick if I could only have three for all of my fishing.

0:07.0	bringing you tips, tricks and techniques to help you get the most of your time on the water. Here's your host, acclaimed

1:10.0	So anyway, but I did make a huge mistake in a recent podcast.
1:15.0	I said that Nathan Cook was the fishing manager at the Sacramento store.
1:19.5	Well, if he went to Sacramento looking for Nathan,
1:22.3	I apologize because he is the fishing manager at the
1:26.3	San Jose store so if you're interested in fishing the surf in Central California,
1:35.0	you can probably get some help in Sacramento,
1:37.0	but if you want to talk to Nathan about it,
1:39.0	you got to go to San Jose.

1:47.3	confuse me. The second announcement is that don't forget that the Sonic Waiter Tryonathon is still going on.
1:58.8	The deal here is that you go into any or of a store or dealer and you try on a
2:04.6	parasonic waiters any one of the four styles and they will give you a
2:10.4	special code a top secret special code, and a URL that you can go in and fill in your
