I used to try the triple threat all the time.
I found the threat to be to my mental state ...... not to the fish.
I would get it going for a while but then all of a sudden I would have a tangled mess. A windy day was sure to be a disaster very quickly.
I have never had a guide recommend three flies. Hmmmm, I wonder why [sly]
I talked to big fish guru Landen Mayer about tangling the three fly rig all of the time. He said the trick is to never use smaller than 4X tippet.
I am going to give it a try again this summer and see how it goes.
