The bomber can be fished dead drift, skating, dibbling or swinging in a regular manner and all methods have their day. Remember a fish moving to the Bomber is on the alert and as mentioned above a small fly pulled over the same fish will often result in a firm take.As the fly is so big and visible it can be used in any water although classic bomber water is the fast tail glides prevailing in our waterfall pools."Source: Low Water Fishing Tips on the Atlantic Salmon Reserve.Full Details on fishing on the Kola Peninsula in Russia visit: Kola Peninsula"
