  When I first started contact nymphing I was just lobbing em in….but more recently dialing in this same technique with much more success. It works especially well to get tight quickly in faster current. Your tips are right on point!!! Thanks!

  An incredibly helpful video that unlocks the power of Euro Nymphing by dispelling the mistaken assumption that Euro Nymphing is short distance only. Thank you!

  Well Done man!  I'm slowly making my way through your videos.  Agreed with everything you said... Casting with purpose on every cast and getting to contact quickly is important instead of just lobbing them in.  Many people, including myself, use the oval cast often, and I feel my accuracy is good, but for a beginner hitting any kind of target is tougher!  And I find that once I get beyond 15 feet I'm using your casting method every time especially with lighter leaders.

  Great pointers & explained in a concise, logical, chronological order.  As I said in the first video of yours I viewed, sharing pointers & tips (at least for me) is what I like about your videos rather than a ‘watch me catch fish & subscribe to watch me catch more fish regularly’ feed. The only thing that could make it better is if you had two cameras so you could add a panned view of your actual casts & leader movements and landings in the pond but I realize this isn’t a Paramount Motion picture!  Keep the pointers coming & thanks for sharing your knowledge!  Tight lines!

  I’m still new to fly fishing. I’ve watched just about all of your videos. I finally decided to try Europe nymphing. Bought a cheaper combo and planned my first trip. I didn’t go. I only fish local tail water. First I got in the yard and tried to cast. Came in feeling pretty bad. I had watched your video a while back. Came in and watched it @ 4 times listening and watching closely and another one you had a couple of times. Went back to the yard the next day and applied what I had learned and did much better. I also started holding my rod with my finger on top. Much better. I didn’t catch anything in the yard but I can’t wait to hit the water. 😅 Thanks again.

  Nice one Cory, yes I've seen plenty of people struggle with the casting but you're right, it's not that different to conventional fly casting. One of the big ones that I see is that you must have tension on the flies before your casting stroke, whether that's the initial pickup or the forward casting stroke. Watching someone try to roll cast pickup with a euro rig is always entertaining! Keep up the great vids mate. :)
