How to fly fish a fast run 

I really appreciate the screen arrow an line overlays to highlight what you are talking about in the video. This is very helpful to reinforce the message.

This video content should not only be taught to all fly fishers, or should be a case study in business school for how to properly do content that gives a brand authority and attracts lifelong fans.

Just like your book- a video illustrating the chapter on fishing runs. Good stuff

Good to have you back, I missed your wisdom!

Thank you for spreading your knowledge and fishing techniques. Excellent

Thanks! As always, appreciate the education as I look into the Nymphing game.

Thanks for sharing!! This is a great video and I love the way you take time to explain in details on how to fish just a small section of a river. Being a beginner I will say I love seeing the drawings and the explanation on how to rig the set up you are using. That helps me so much! Thank you!!

Thanks Devin, this is a great video showing your thought processes on how to fish varying types of water. I was particularly impressed with how a simple change in weight can lead to success and how you process through all the scenarios until you come up with the right answer. The section on using the dry dropper is very instructive since I've struggled with this technique on occasion. The leader set-up clarified and reinforced some of the answers to questions about the technique that you helped me with previously. Many thanks!

Thanks Devin! I’ve been trying to be patient and make sure I methodically pick apart each stretch I fish and this video gives a great example of that. I Always enjoy your lessons!

Yet another great video Devin. Thanks for the river breakdown commentary and your thoughts as you moved upstream.

Great video that covered so many elements and nuances of euro nymphing. You’re an excellent teacher!

Great presentation. Very informative and helpful. Thank you!

Thanks, Devin! It's really helpful that you are so patient and complete in describing what you're doing, or attempting to do at times. The graphics also really help identify where in the river your comments apply. Like Joe below, I'd also like to hear a bit about the Adams leader system, particularly how it relates to your traditional leader formulas, which I use.

Hey Devin thank you for another on the water tutorial, they are really helpful. I like how you mark the areas from above and use prompts like your book. Its a great read but I've also found it to be a great reference book that one can go back to several times. Order this book, you'll never regret it. Thank you again.

Thanks for the quality educational content.

Great demonstration Devin! You've taught me I need to slow down and pick each run apart with depth and presentation. Thanks for sharing👌 Steve @blackflycreations, Ut

Loved the video. Super insightful.

Great video - super clear

Devin, you are the best at explaining what you are doing and why. I've been fly fishing for over 40 years, I was taught by Dave Rothrock up in Pa. I'm sure many will benefit from your ability to communicate how to read the water. Well done!!

Lots of gold in this. Thanks. “Nicely done “

Beautiful, detailed video. Thank you! Love the humility of not insisting on showing some big fish being pulled out of the spots and seams near the slab that you worked so patiently up to. Those spots transpose almost directly to a place I fish often, so it was very interesting to see how you approach it. The video is more about fishing the slower seams around a fast run, than it is fishing the fast run itself (which is what I expected from the title). I'm sometimes amazed at fish I find holding in turbulent water -- more turbulent than anything in this video -- so I'm surprised you didn't address those faster currents more. Then again, I find success happens in those places when it's warmer, and it looks like a cooler day there. I just love the detail and the methodical approach you share. Wonderful stuff.

I really enjoy your videos

Thank you for editing the video to show exactly where you are fishing with those red crosses.

I love the bow and arrow cast! I don't find myself using it as much out west, but it was a staple on the spring creeks in the eastern US. I suspect many folks pass this type of water by and head for the bends or other prime water. But what a mistake that can be. Nice job as usual. Great videography and production.

Great lance as always!!! Wish we had those flows bro!!!

Thank you so much, that way of working a section of fast water, MSG Leum

Very helpful - thanks!

"Heartbreakingly pretty little parr marks." Now there's a phrase for you. Amen.

Excellent explanation of your technique. Thank you also for not having one of those “fish on every cast” videos.

Excellent as usual Devin - thanks for taking the time to show us how you pick apart that run! Question: when you know you missed a fish, how hard should you try to get that fish to eat again, if at all? Tight lines! 🎣

I’m brand new to your channel and to fly fishing. This is the first video of yours I’ve watched. Why did you color on your mono line?

Intereresting!

To see an accomplished angler like Devin be surprised with a hole that doesn’t produce as expected gives the rest of us hope! I’ve made that “huh” sound more times than I can count on spots that look real fishy.

Damn, I want to fish with you, I wonder if you can catch as many fish from one pool where I live (Caucasus mountains). Come to Georgia!

Hey Devin! Not sure if it is possible, but I'm hoping technology is getting good and cheap. I have a really hard time seeing your rod and leader to see HOW you are fishing. I wonder if it is possible to make them more visible to the camera, or to digitally accentuate them so us viewers can better see what they are actually doing?

How do you like the new adams mono? Comparable to Pierre sempe or pezon & michel? Great video as always devin!

Great instruction! Suggestion: how about a vid on strike detection? I mean setting up with telephoto lens on the sighter. Make the sighter the star of the show! Real world demonstrations of detecting a nymph take would go a long way to help me and others. Thanks

Great video do you have any recommendations on reels that balance well with a T&T contact 2 10 foot ? Thanks

Hi Devin. I assume your running the dry fly off a tag? The perdigon is not tied to the bend of the hook on the dry, correct? Thanks!

Interesting cost benefit analysis of temp vs location of trout. Curious if type of hatch as another variable would also contribute to trout location, thanks!

I am relatively new to fly fishing, so are you casting without any fly line just a 20’ leader? The leader and the rod = approx 30’, the river doesn’t look that wide.

Would you jig a streamer through the head of the run when nothing else biting? Do you have a video on pendulum cast?

I'm curious and still learning the Jargon. Are most of your videos, including this one, euro Nymphing. Or is it all kinds of fly fishing? I just watched this whole video, but was left with, wait, what kind of set up was this?

When you fish the upper part at the end of the video from the left bank you are standing in very rough water, you could choose the other bank and be more confi. I understand that it is to be conceled and not be detected... Is it the case? I take the chance to wish you all the best in the upcoming world fly fishing Championship!

Did you mention you were using a “foam” front end loader caddis dry fly? If so, can you share a tying video/recipe?

I am suprised you did not cross the stream and fish from the left? Could you not gotten better drifts while not high sticking over the heavy water

Can you describe in a little more detail that new leader? Various diameters, length etc? Are you using a tippet ring between the leader and tippet or would a blood knot make sense?

Are you now using the veniard quills to tie quilldigons?

Devin, what rod ate you using?

How does the Adams compare with the Cortland? Thank you

Thalwag??….really. I’m a simple fly fisherman, called the center of the current, the fast water etc.
