This was a true master class in Euro Nymphing. The way Pat fishes is remarkable in the context of how he divides the stream into segments and then fishes each one while making sure not to over-step and spook trout in areas he had not covered yet. This video is one I can watch over and over and learn something every time I watch it.

The most subtle casting stroke I've ever seen. Slow and methodical, nice. The relaxed humility is refreshing.

Pat is the real deal. A humble angler whom all fishermen--beginner and expert alike--would benefit from watching. He picks apart water with surgical precision, and I particularly like how he talks to himself. He definitely has a system and sticks to it. Great video. Thank you for sharing!

Awesome content. Love Pat Weiss; a true expert that you don't hear much about. The best and truly great anglers most often seem to be the ones doing it quietly behind the scenes.

Makes sense though for nymphing. That way you're not throwing your nymph on top of their heads working up

Great content!! I’m fishing a creek that has big browns. You have to sneak on these fish, the water is small and very clear. I just switched from felt soles to felt with spikes. There’s a huge difference, the fish can hear me coming with the spiked felt soles. I can see them spooking from a greater distance. It’s amazing how the little things can make such a difference!!! After switching back to felt only, things are back to normal. Thanks a bunch fir the content and video!!!!

This is a superior video. Watching Pat fish, and listening to him explain the reasons for his strategies and choices, is a post graduate course in Euro nymphing. Now, it would be great if Pat could describe the leader he's using in this video (its length, diameter, and the diameter of the sighter). I would also like to know if he's still using his Sage 1 10' wt., or whether he's moved on to another rod.

I asked Pat about the leader, but he said some things remain secret 😉 As for the rod he cycled between 3 or 4 that day and I can't recall what it was. Super happy you enjoyed the video!
