EURO NYMPHING a Riffle
Vložit

- A quick video on how I approached a Central, PA riffle on a late October day.
Euro Nymphing when the water is shallow and clear means you need to stay below the fish and make upstream casts so you can fish back to you. If you use this approach anytime the water is low-whether it is a riffle, pocket water, or a smooth glide, I'm sure you will find more trout in your net.
The fly used was a size 16 natural Walt's worm with a copper bead.
Hope you enjoy and pick up a few tips.
Tight lines!
Cory

one more thing. your tying videos are some of the best out there!!!! any plans on making some more???
Really appreciate it! I will definitely be making more. Thanks for the support and tight lines!
Caught my first wild brown on my euro setup yesterday! Lost one too, I was excited that I got 2 to take me offering on a chilly day. Thank you so much for all the tips and techniques that helped me catch that fish on my first day euro nymphing!
Love to hear it, PA Fly! So glad to have helped. Continued success to you. Tight lines!
Cory. Been watching all your stuff. Brilliant! Just recently started contact nymphing and of all the CZcams content yours is the best. Thank you.
Thank you, Ken! Really awesome of you to say. Good luck to you and tight lines!
Cory, you got me excited because tomorrow it is going to be in the 60's near me and I am heading for some riffles!
Awesome! Good luck to you!!
The drift is everything! Thanks for a great video....I'm back to hittin streams everyday day now euro nymphing this winter...got my start euro nymphing from watching your vids..❤
Yes it is, Berks! Glad my videos got your started-awesome to hear. Good luck to you this winter!
Hey Cory! Don’t know how I missed this one for a few days. Great video as usual,I always pay close attention trying to pick up a tip from your videos. Tightlines my friend!
Because you have been fishing! I always appreciate it, Dale! Tight lines to you as well, my friend!
Nice work Cory working that riffle! Positioning yourself in the right spot to make that upstream and across cast without blowing out the run proved to be the key to success! Adjusting to stream conditions is vital and can change day to day ! Reading the water as you explain is is so important for putting fish in the net ! We’ll done buddy!
Thanks so much, Tony! Had a blast in that riffle! Appreciate you watching and hope you had a great Thanksgiving, my friend!
Your small and slim Walt's does the job again (FYI, tied up some 16's and 18's and they work well on UK rivers for our wild brown trout season too:)...look forward to some more of your fly-tying videos thru the winter months....thanks and Happy Holidays Cory
I catch a ton of fish on that little fly, TK. Glad to hear they are working for your wild brownies on your side of the pond, as well. I’ll have some fly tying videos coming out. Appreciate you watching and Happy Holidays to you. Cheers!
You do a nice job of showing how you break down a run & approach it. Keep it up! I liked the explanation of your upstream approach (vs. working across and down as many tend to do)
Thank you, Martin! Really appreciate it. Thanks so much for watching and tight lines!
Good stuff Cory! Different sides and casting up stream...both good points. Tightlines
Appreciate it, Craig! Thanks for watching. Tight lines!
Thanks for the good video Cory I enjoy watching them Keep up the good work Happy Thanksgiving and as always tight lines and stay safe
Appreciate you watching, Snook! Happy Thanksgiving to you as well. Tight lines!
Awesome Cory!!! As usual!!!
Thank you, Scott! Appreciate it!
Dude, you’re a freakin magician! Your videos are the best, Cory! Happy Thanksgiving!!
Haha! Thanks, Jeff-Appreciate it! Happy Thanksgiving to you as well!
@@OldDominionTroutBum Let me know the next time you’re headed to Central Pa!
Will do, Jeff!
Nice work as always. Single fly in that skinny stuff is good times for sure.
Can’t beat it, JB! Appreciate you watching brother!
Great advise once again 👍
Appreciate it, Rob! Thanks so much for watching.
Awesome video👌
Thanks so much!
Another great video! I've always wondered what net you're using and if you prefer a hip pack/waste pack/sling pack etc. Working on my Christmas list...lol Tight lines Cory!
Thanks, James! My net is a Frabill 18x13. My pack is the Fish Pond Thunderhead waist pack. I’ve tried them all and definitely prefer the hip pack. Hope Santa is good to you! Tight lines!
Another good video Cory! Been dying to get out but last Thursday (Day Off) was too cold and windy and this Friday will be rai showers!
Thanks, Uni! Hope you get out there soon! Still a lot of good fishing out there. Tight lines to you!
@@OldDominionTroutBum Have you heard from PA Woods and water lately? Haven't see a post since September...Concerned.
He’s been in the woods hunting!
I love your videos, I’ve learned more in the last week from you than any other source. 2 questions: Varying water depths, do you ever extend your tippet while fishing or do you just put sighter into water? Also would you recommend a euro line. Thanks for all the information you provided me!
Thank you, Brett! I do extend my sighter into the water all of the time. You can do it if you use a micro leader (4x or below). That's one of the advantages of using a micro leader-you can have a shorter tippet and dunk it when necessary. If you haven't seen my micro leader video, you can check it out here:

The euro line I like the best is Airflo.
Hope this helps.
Hi Cory, great content.
Clear and concise.I like your set up. All the best from the UK . I'm always looking for an edge in clear water, can you tell me what make are the hoodies.
Appreciate it, Doug! The hoodie is from Free Fly: it’s the crossover.

They have a couple different styles and weights. Super comfortable.
Cheers, Mate.
Dude, great job as always! I really appreciate your fly tying videos, especially the Walts, perdigons and stone pony! What size and model net are you using? Looks like a Frabill 18x13?
Appreciate it, Marsodude! Glad you like them! You are right, my net is a Frabill 18x13. Tight lines to you!
Excellent video as always Cory! Always wanted to ask you, what kind of net are you running and what size? Looks like a McLean.
Appreciate it, BHJ! I’m using a Frabill 18x13. Thanks for watching and tight lines!
Great video, Cory! I like the upstream approach in low clear water..Will you float the sighter as well, and wondering what length of tippet you will go to in water that has a lot less depth? Your videos are excellant!
Thank you, Tony! I do float a sighter-but do it more so in deeper water. When I'm in shallow, quicker water like this, I like the approach I was doing here. I have about 3ft to my bottom fly. The average depth was about 1.5ft.
Going 1.5x-2x the depth when you are casting directly upstream is helpful because of the severe angle coming back to you. Hope this helps.
Absolutely, Thank You!
love the videos!!!! any plans on doing some winter fishing? one more thing. what are the o-ring on your rod used for???
thanks again!!!!
Appreciate it! I will definitely be doing some winter fishing. The o-rings hold my mono when I wrap it for rain. You can see what I mean here:

Great fishing as always!! I smoke cigars while fishing, have you ever burnt your tippet or leader? I did this today. Ole well, just trying to live it up. Stuff happens. Lol. Thanks!!
Appreciate it, Chadd! I haven’t burned it yet! (Knock on wood…). That’s right though…you have to live it up! Tight lines to you!
Been enjoying your videos! Have you fished around the Pittsburgh area? Just looking for some streams to fish out there.
Thanks for all the videos
Steve
Appreciate it, Steve! I have not fished that area. So many streams and not enough time….
I know that Yellow Creek has a fly fishing only area that I want to try come spring. I also have been tying some patterns you have on CZcams and you go through step by step and I am able to have success tying them.
Glad you are having success on the patterns, Steve. And I have heard that Yellow Creek up in that area is a good one. Good luck to you!
Cory, I know you mentioned in a other video that you like Pierre sempe mono for micro rigs but you typically use a different brand from overseas. What brand is that? And where do you purchase it?
Daniel, it’s Pezon & Michel Color Line. I get it from Riversfly. They are out of Spain.
Cory, what river are you fishing?
I was in a trib in Central, PA. Appreciate you watching.
fly fishing with a JRs cigar I am a fan...
Haha! Love a good cigar when I’m out there. Appreciate you watching, Donnie.
Great video! What beat size do use for 16‘s and 18‘s hooks?
Thanks, Tobias! I tie them with 2.3-3.5 on 16s. 18s and 2.3-3.0. I oversize a lot of my small flies. Appreciate you watching.
Thank you for your feedback. Greetings from Bavaria/Germany
Anytime, Tobias. Prost!!
Have you ever used a Tenkara rod for this?
