Tailwaters make up a large percentage of trout waters available to the
angler and many destinations can provide superb action from heavy
populations of different species of trout.
Tailwaters demand
strategies and techniques
that are different from that
of freestone streams and
spring creeks.
This program deals with the special
considerations that must be given to
tailwaters in order for one to be consistently
successful fishing waters where both man and
nature can affect the conditions.
This program covers a wide variety of streams
across the U. S. from East to West, including
scenes from over thirty blue ribbon tailwaters.
In addition to Mother Nature, man and
computers control the habitat of trout in
tailwaters. Discharges from dams can change a
calm tailwater stream into a fast flowing river in
a matter of minutes yet some tailwaters
fluctuate only moderately. Trout adjust their
location and feeding habits to these changes in
the rates of flow and if anglers are to be
successful, they must learn to adjust their
fishing methods and techniques accordingly.

The aquatic insects in most tailwaters are quite different from
those in freestone streams and spring creeks. Hatch times can
also vary from the normal times the same insects hatch on
other types of streams. Information on imitating these insects is
also included in the program.
