What makes streamer fishing so different from dry flies and nymphing? Is it about imitating baitfish, triggering aggression, or just throwing the biggest fly you can?

Today, we're bringing back Gunnar Brammer, streamer expert and fly designer, to break down predatory fish behavior, how to cast oversized flies, and why natural materials like bucktail still outshine synthetics. Gunnar shares his five essential streamer fishing rules, the biggest mistakes beginners make, and how to design flies that fish actually want to eat. Plus, we talk about casting the right fly line, why fast-action rods aren't always the answer, and his new Articulated 2.0 streamer design. If you've ever wanted to fish bigger flies, target aggressive fish, and rethink everything you know about streamers, this one's for you.
