So, I've always fished a Kastmaster type 6 to 10 inches above a smaller ice fly. It seems like the heavier lure falls below the ice fly going down the hole and gets tangled. What are some remedies for this?
The other day, I tried a Kastmater on the bottom, tied a loop in my line 8 inches above, and then tied on a short section of leader attached to an ice fly. Didn't seem to get nearly as many bites with the larger lure on the bottom. I think the small section of leader attached to my ice fly may have scared the fish.
How do ya'll rig up? Is there another way to set-up the heavier lure on the bottom and ice fly above it?
Thanks,
Justin
