I do a lot of nymphing in tailwaters. I generally cast upstream & work my way down stream until I find a pattern that works, especially when the water is high. Sometimes I swim it, sometimes I'll do a drift & lift, but what works in those waters quite often when the water is moving is casting across stream & stripping on the swing.

In the book he talks of moving the nymph, not just like streamer fishing but casting upstream and stripping the nymph (not streamer). I am a dead drifter almost all of the time and this is new to me. Anyone do this and can you shed some perspective on this? Mike --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
