With a large fly and fly tying materials selection, one can be sure we will have the right bug for the various scenarios you will encounter or are planning for.
You can use this knot with less tag. Why is that important? You can use this knot for dropper flies. The longer your dropper the more likely it will tangle.
what is a good knot for really small tippet (6-8x) when you may not have much tag end such on a dropper tag? I've been tying the clinch knot my whole life but it seems to break really easily on small tippet. I dont like using it on anything smaller than 5x.
Can I use any rod for this? I mean, I use a ten foot 4 wt now for a mono leader. Can I use the same rod for micro-leaders? Thanks much, and keep up the good work! Toney
Great way to tie the 1620! I've been tying it the way Devon Olsen of Tactical Fly Fishers does. He hooks the fly point into his finger to hold it. I like swinging it around much better. But of course, he's a better man than I am.
Great video and thank you for putting descriptions in the video via diagrams of the Different water types you were explaining as I haven’t seen this done on other videos nearly as much and in most cases not at all. I am new to your channel and wish I found it a while ago as it is very very informative.
This is without a doubt, hands-down, the best video on RU-vid that I have seen out of dozens regarding tying a euro nymph trout leader. The whiteboard diagram was exceptional and lacking in all the other videos that I’ve seen. The close-up camera work was also exceptional and extremely helpful. Wonderful job and please keep putting out such awesome videos! PS: I just picked up a Contact 2, Thomas and Thomas euro nymphing rig with a Galvan 3.7 real completely set up to fish but if I ever need to change my leader system or redo the current one, I will be referring to this video which I have saved. Thank you!
When ready to start fishing, drop the leader that wrapped the back of the reel into the water as shown, but try a few taps on the rod with your finger and any light fly will bounce off the eyelet and into the water. I usually hook the fly up the rod as far as I can reach so the tap drrops the fly further out and has more line out.
Great video! Finally someone who understands how to properly euro cast! I’ve always called it the lasso cast 🤠 or an oval cast but helicopters are cool 🤙
The COMPLETE HELICOPTER comes 360 around you with rod tip circling your head. When done properly, its can be used to cast up under low hanging vegetation or other obstructions.
Correct. But you don't need to if you tie it this much easier way ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wj192wHBcbU.html&ab_channel=OldDominionTroutBum
Thanks for making this video. Someone showed me this knot ages ago and I had forgotten how to tie it. This vid was a great instruction. I used to fish the Deschutes river almost every weekend when I lived in Oregon. Great river!. I miss fishing there!😎
Love the info! I totally do this all the time, look forward to trying this out next time. the audio was peaking, next perhaps check that levels and bring the sound down just a tad.
Nice teaching videos but I've watched four of them now and I never see any fish caught so how do I know these techniques work it would be nice to see some nice red sides

Welllll.... Devin wrote a book, made some videos and now RU-vid is full of "euro nymphing expert" so let me share a quick summary of Devin's basics on helicopter cast ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ydhG94eq1UA.html and a bit more details as he is in a tight spot + landing a fish -> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WfF46Ifk_vE.html
