OK, Last week I went to a stocked SEPA stream with my 10' nymphing rod, some flies I tied this winter and a great teacher. (Nymph Wristed) I got the hang of Czek Nymphing and caught 6 or 7 stockies. Went to another SEPA stream solo this morning that had been stocked last week. Caught 9 stockies today. Caught most last week on a bugger that was my anchor fly, but did not get any on a smaller basic nymph pattern dropper. Today, it was all about the dropper. Caught some on the same basic nymph pattern, but caught most on a #20 midge. The place I fished today was not exactly Czek water so I had to improvise and fish a longer cast. Things I learned:
1) A little instruction goes a long way in learning a knew technique.
2) Hits were harder than I expected in the swift water with weight.
3) Hits were quite easy to see with the sighter in the bright sun.
4) Rigging while standing in a stream is tricky.
5) I need a net when using a 10' rod!
6) Love to see the flash when setting the hook!
Cheers!
