In this video George Daniel switches from a morning of fishing euro dry dropper to a micro leader euro nymphing setup. Using just one fly he walks us through fishing several different runs while going through his approach, cast, presentation, drift and fly selection. A major theme in this video is making small adjustments to improve the quality of your fishing. If you're new to euro nymphing or have been doing it for years, there are a lot of wise words that you won't want to miss here. Even if you don't euro nymphs at all there are some excellent principals that can apply to any form of fly fishing you do!
