Hi Sean

Can you give us a little more information on what type of water
you are fishing?  Spring creeks or raging pocket water or in
between?  IMO nymph fishing requires greater dedication and
attention than most dry fly fishing.  In most water you are faced
with two problems immediately; (1) getting the nymph down to the 
fish in a dead drift, and (2) detecting the fish when it takes the 
nymph.  It can be frustrating.

But a good nymph fisherman can usually really catch fish.
