Thanks for your input. I'm glad that someone chimed in who has had success, and prefers drift fishing braids. There are a few out there who have had great success with it, and continued fishing with it over the years. They are usually pretty good fisherman. It seems to be the ducks that have trouble and cause trouble with it.
It probably won't be long before I give it a try, cuz you are definately speaking my language. What general sizes of the Stealth and Tuffline do you use for steelhead and salmon respectively?
Also, I guess for the sake of not sounding like a hypocrite or a know-it-all, I should add a disclaimer. I have very little experience fishing braids for drift fishing. But I have fished around quite a bit with folks who have been using it, and have several friends who do, and spent quite a bit of time talking to people about it. Most of what I am saying above comes from what I have witnessed on the river, and stories I have heard from them all. I certainly have my opinions, but I always lend an open ear and consideration to someone who is having success.
