I can't think of many that are better than this one. The way that you present the information is spot on and the tips are all stuff that works. Keep up the good work!

Rod/reel combo with fishing kit as an emergency setup kzitem.infoUgkxntWMOZsO1Zfv-pdn_XuffEtNkTYAYu4Z recommend but started to use this every day. The rod is thick and seems durable. I keep it neatly tucked into a regular backpack all the time with my fishing gear, and can grab it anytime, put it on my back and go anywhere. I just read in another review that the rod length below the reel is adjustable as well, so I will try that too for even more portability. Probably the best setup I've ever owned. I lost the cap for the eyelets, but no big deal since I still have the black cloth sheath that came for the pole and I use that. Very portable and high quality.

Just learned this technique this weekend while Fishing Wolf Creek Hatchery stream in Kentucky. A very nice gentleman from England took the time to show me how to tie the tandem rig knot and how to follow the line back down just as you done. I was catching trout when no one else was. He showed me how to tie in the indicator line between the leader and tippet. The two colored indicator line made seeing the strikes easier. He gave me several feet of the indicator line. Now I’m back home looking for a spool of 5x indicator line. I’m new to trout fishing. I recently fished the Yellowstone, Beaverhead , Madison and several small creeks in Montana.

I have skipped steps 1 through 500. And just by my usual leaders and put a 4" spot of fluorescent orange or green spray paint at 3 feet and six feet above the tippet. I did a lot of nymph fishing with just a leader, no indicators of any kind just seat of the pants and caught trout but with the paint spots it's like taking candy from a baby.

great video, I personally just use my standard floating line with just about a foot out the tip of the rod for turn over. Then for the leader I use flouro for a foot then a sighter made from alternating Orange and yellow Dacron (bind splice loops on either end and double surgeon knotted sections) then 3 feet of flouro to a small barrel swivel then a tippet of around 18 inches. I attach the flies same as you. My system is free and made from stuff I already had. A lot of hard core Euro people will say my system isn't ideal but it works fantastic and is so much simpler than many people make it out to be.

So many of us do things similarly. Over the years (40 plus for me) fishing nymphs like this I'm still tweaking my set-up. I have several leader formulas, most with two sighters incorporated in them. I find I'm always analyzing my presentation to get the best drift. What I've seen is that some of the differences in set-up don't really provide a benefit other than a confidence factor; however, that confidence factor is very important. Good job, Dan.

Hey Dan! Very good tutorial for Euro-Nymphing. I don’t necessarily do Euro or use the mono rig but essentially the first part of my drift method is the same. What I incorporate in most of my drifts is in the second part of my drift, the swing and then just letting your rig hang downstream at the end of the drift for 5-8 seconds. I catch so many fish in the last part of my drift it’s ridiculous. The bad part though is a lot of fish are barely hooked that a lot get off, but I do land a lot also. Incorporating the swing and the hang, I feel, adds up your percentage of hookups and gets the most outta each drift. You definitely have to have more patience with this method, it’s not like running and gunning of Euro or high sticking, but it’s awesome when that fish smashes it right at the end when you just think your drift is done. Again, nice job buddy! 👍🏻

Ran across your video the day after I tried this technique for the first time using my 11' 4wt. My primary problem / issue was casting, as there is no weighted "fly line" to throw. I developed a kind of flip / casting method like I had a spinning rod in my hand, but with the two flies not generating much weight my line did not go out as far as I wanted. I note that this video looks like he's using a traditional fly backcast, which did NOT work with my 20' of mono / site line / leader / flies setup. Any advice? Thanks for this video!

awesome fishing! I GOT LIKE 30 YRS FLY FISHING..OF COURSE I am not all that great.and have a ton of missed trout..still learning tricks..think mb its because was so used to one stream..donegal..and now and then clarks..do miss donegal after the spill which I believe was manure this yr and the nitrate that burned the trouts gills and there went all the stocked trout 5 days after stocking.but the natives donegal TU CLUB PUT IN YRS AGO.still there..lots brownies so I was told..I not caught 1 yet in 3 visits. moved up towards reading due to wifes work..I retired.not by choice.but anyways.tully is nice..still trying to hook like everyone else does.learning the zebra midge thing.or trying to. any how.dont know where your at here.but I been wanting for yrs to hit a wild trout stream and finally catch some..brownies is my fave love.. and thats a goal to meet once in my life is have a great day catching wild browns.tried checking wisconisco being was told native browns.but guy will not tell where..ughh anyways..one day.just one day.i get half as good as you with catching like you did here .would be awesome.makes hard to fish with a disability that dont allow to be on feet very long at one clip.. hop skip fishing is what i call it.lol fish a short..sit on ass.long story..keep up the great fishing.so admire what you got going on..and think i need to redo my line set up. 8 ft leader might be the issue..

Thank you very much for watching and commenting. If you're looking for some wild brown trout fishing go on the Fish and Boat commissions website. Search for "Class A wild trout streams" or "reproducing trout streams" Then it will come up with a big list of all the wild trout streams that have been surveyed in the state. The Class A list will tell you whether the stream is Class A brook or brown trout water. You can search by county and find streams that are close to home. It will surprise you how many wild trout streams will be right under your nose and you don't even know it. Have fun and good luck!

Great video! But it's not always true that you always want the heavy fly on the bottom. Sometimes the if the fish are holding on the bottom, a heavy fly on top will pull both flies deep. You don't have as good of a constant contact with your flies, but it can be very effective in faster current.

What stream are you fishing? I live in South central Pa Both Big spring and Falling spring are only a couple of miles from me. Falling spring has wild rainbows. Both can be a very hard stream to fish because they see lots of fishermen and the water is extremely clear.

If I’m fishing a lot of different depths can I use an extra long tip it and let it work for all of them, off of an indicator

Yes I prefer a 5-6 foot piece of tippet off my tippet ring. By changing the angle of my sighter or height of it off the water I can cover different depths without changing tippet length.

Great stuff guys, good info and clear instructions. You said you use the pline flouroclear. Any opinion on that vs the 100% flouro? I saw you said the flouroclear has better abrasion resistance in a comment. Does it sink as fast as 100% flouro?
@HardwayOutdoors
5 жыл бұрын
I have used the 100% flouro P-line 2 pound and it is nowhere near as strong as the flouroclear 2 pound. It is thinner in diameter but it is nowhere as good as the flouro clear. I don't notice any different sink rate between the two lines. Since the 100% flouro is thinner it will sink faster, but I have no confidence in that line in 2 pound. I just use the flouroclear.

When you're fishing a river of varying depths, do you have a standard length of tippet you always attach to the tippet ring or are you modifying it to match the different stretches of river? Nice video :)
@HardwayOutdoors

Lewis normally I will just attach 5-6 feet of tippet onto the tippet ring. And by keeping a more “parallel” leader to the water I can prevent my flies from snagging as fast. Then if I move to deeper water I will just hold my rod tip higher and create a more vertical leader. I will shorten up my tippet length if the fish seem to be a little picky. Then I will adjust it to the depth. Thanks for watching!!

I use the Cortland Ultra Premium, it's expensive ... but it's also stronger than everything else out there for the diameter. The 5X is 5.7 lbs.
