  1. Bob I am having the same issues with foul hooking fish. I don’t know if it’s due to the fish taking a run at the fly and quickly rejecting  or spitting it out or turning away at the last second or if  they are  just in the wrong place at the wrong time and they bump into the tippet causing you to set the hook. I’ve even hooked them in the tail which makes for a nice little tug of war. Hopefully we’ll hear from the more experienced guys for the answer to this.
