    Excellent video. The SA markers you're showing are phenomenal for adjusting sighters quickly and they wipe off easily with an alcohol pad. As an avid euro angler (non competition), I've been using 40 feet of 6lb Maxima Chameleon-> 2-3 feet of sighter -> tippet ring -> tippet. No knots through my guides and very sensitive with 6x-7x tippet. It's an awesome way to fish trout.

    Nice to hear the comforting words that it’s not so difficult and the barriers to entry are not high. I have stayed in the same hotel as the French national team and observed some of them fishing yet I’m a dry fly guy and soldier on looking for fish that’ll rise.. Maybe I’ll give it a bash. My last trip was to South Tirol and the volume of water made it really tough to fish the dry fly but I soldiered on there too I’m sure some Czech\French\Euro nymphing would have brought more success but I like to see them take the fly…. Great video, great advice thanks for the continued creation of the content.

    Great video guys - thanks for sharing this! As a kid and through my 20's, I fished super ultralight spinning gear, size 16 dry fly hooks embedded into a salmon egg and typically one "B" shot. Incredibly sensitive rig and seems to be what I see today called "high sticking" and "tight-lining". We did what worked! I'm giving this setup Tim shared a "go" and see how it works for me. Appreciate y'all!

    By the way we(Europeans) found out that this type of fishing is called euro nymphing by watching US colleagues on the CZcams 😅

    I'm loving the Irony that 3 days ago Brian posted a video with Kelly G talking about streamers, and now a video with Tim F on the Euro game. Certainly its not a secret that Kelly is not a fan of the Euro deal, and will probably not be a named sponsor of the US National team as it heads overseas for the next round of International competition.
    Brian, does Kelly know you are being courted by the Dark Side? As Master Yoda said "Once you start down the Dark Path, forever it will dominate your destiny."
    No knock on Kelly or Tim for Brian. Certainly 3 of the most knowledgeable guys and informative channels on The Tube. I, for one, have learned a ton from all 3 of you. Just loving the timing and the juxtaposition of the back to back videos, made me chuckle a little bit.

      I think you’re misunderstanding Kelly’s view on Euro Nymphing. He admits that it’s “the closest thing fly fisherman have to live bait”. That’s a direct quote. He knows that it’s deadly effective. His only knocks on it are that the euro flies “have no soul” (aka, boring to tie and look at) and he’s frustrated the competition regulations don’t force fly fisherman to do all of the disciplines a well rounded fly fisherman would know (i.e. dry, streamer, wet swing, nymphing). But don’t be confused, if Kelly was in a competition where the goal was to catch as many fish as quickly as possible, he would absolutely be euronymphing. Sure, if regulations allowed, he might use split shot, but it’s the same concept: tightline, euro, etc. There is absolutely no “Darkside” to euronyphing. Kelly also overlooks the fact that self-restriction creates innovation. A number of innovations have come out of Euro nymphing competition that can be applied to other forms of fly fishing. these innovations would never have happened if competitive anglers weren’t forced to abide by a strict set of rules. Rules help spur creativity, because it requires you to think outside the box. Also, he is getting older, and as people get older they are also less open to change and fail to see benefits of new trends.

    Cool video but I'm pretty sure that the fly only sections here in PA require that the fly be cast by the weight of the line. Is an .020" fly line and a heavily weighted fly really going to do that? I'll have to re-read the regulations posted next time I think of it.

    Small creek nymphing is very 'Euro.' But, I'm vintage, pretty much everything before Jack Dennis, Western Trout Fly Tying Manual II.
    I appreciate your leader design. Is Maxima the easiest to mono to straighten off of a reel on a cold windy day?

    Tim's formula is a micro leader, very hard to cast, especially in the wind. If you are just trying euro nymping don't try his formula. Like he said buy a shorty line and leader.
