Merging Glide and Pool |
Glides and pools are somewhat similar in that they both have glass like surfaces with
intermittent surface depressions. Pools, however, are usually deeper
and have a slower current speed. Glides may also contain a more
varied bottom structure such as larger boulders, ledges, drop offs
and undercut banks. In both water types fish can be more selective so
longer leaders, lighter tippets, smaller flies and more precise
presentation is necessary. Also, patience and persistence may be more
critical in pools.
The
above picture is a good example of a glide flowing and blending into
a pool. The white arrows are showing the potential holding positions
of fish.
