Re: soft hackles for brook trout? (not on swing)

I dead drift them. From time to time I'll fish them in nice clear water and get a good look as they drift by. I find the current imparts nice action to the hackle even when dead drifted. Often finish with a sort of swing at the end of the drift if there's room.
