I have been coming to Angler’s Covey since the first year it opened. Moved to Colorado in 1986 and now spend half the year in Colorado and half in Minnesota. We love the people at Angler’s Covey and always find what we are looking for when we stop in. Keep up the great service, staff, and quality products. Thanks for all you are doing for the homeless community in The Springs. All the best to you, David and Becky. Dr. M

I've never been an egg person, but have been cycling through patterns this winter to figure out a go-to, mainly for winter euro nymphing. Very easy pattern to tie - much easier to get a spherical profile than other materials/patterns. Also, fish were taking them readily in cheesman yesterday so I'm SOLD. great work!

Thanks for the video ! 11 Mile Canyon is a fabulous and beautiful location in the winter to fish. The wind is not ' as bad ' as being out in South Park in the winter which can be brutal.

To add with socks, another thing that plays into it is how tight they are. If they are too tight they can cut blood flow and cause your feet to get cold fast. I have fished in very cold conditions and stayed very comfy.

Great information Jon. Could you give a a more detailed breakdown of your line setup. Length of leader, length and weight of sighter material, length of tippet. I would like to try your setup. Thanks.

@alexargyros7186Ай бұрын
Thanks, Jon, for a very informative video. When you're tightening really small stuff (midge larvae, for example), how do you set up your terminal tackle? Do you tie your nymphs off of tags, or tying off the bend (or eye) of the upper fly? And how do you weight the rig (what material do you use and where do you place it)?
@AnglersCoveyАй бұрын
Great questions! My terminal tackle varies quite a bit actually. I dont always just fish one method. I like to run flies in line (tippet to eye of hook, then dropper to bend of hook) as well as off of droppers. Personally, I'll decide what technique Ill used based on the overall conditions. If I am seeing fish feeding deep, I like to use a dropshot style rig (bottom weighted) and my other flies are of of figure 8 tags above the bottom fly. I can either straight line this or add an indicator. Another little trick with the dropshot style is I can add a very thin piece of tippet (7x) on the bottom fly. Ill do an overhand knot on the end of that and just put a splitshot there. This helps the whole rig go down faster. That way if it snags, the tippet will just break off instead of the flies. If Im fishing lower water or water that seems a bit more pressured, I like to run everything in line. I think the trick is getting comfortable and confident with various rigging. Let me know how it works for you! - Jon

Nice patterns, and I have a couple of questions… Why use downturned eyes on larvae and adult, but straight eye on the emerger? Since the larvae is wet why not use wire instead of the stretch rib? Thx!

Very strong, fast swimming nymphs - typically two cycles each season, first #12-14 second later one is smaller #14-16. Also spinner falls, so 4 stages: nymph, emerger, dun and spinner

Curious what shoes you are using? Are they wading boots? I’m looking for a lower profile and lighter weight wading boot for summer. I prefer just wet wading in Chacos but can’t mange that where I live due to freestone nature of river. Thanks. Informative video 👍

They are the Simms Pursuit wet wading shoes with the Simms Wet Wading socks and it has been an awesome combo for me! The Pursuit shoes are really grippy but still super light and have great arch support for hiking.
