This deeper pool was just calling for the black and blue Exasperator. Michael's confidence fly didn't disappoint with this beautiful hen Dean River steelhead.
This trip was hosted by Sage and the new R8 Spey rods were being put to the test. As many anglers are now finding out, these are great Spey rods. Michael's favorite, the 8136-4, has become his favorite two-hander, especially when the Exasperator is in play.
