It has been a couple years since I uploaded my last Euro Nymphing Rig Tutorial and I've changed a lot about the setup. This video covers my recommendation for beginner Euro Nymphers, and touches on how I use some more advanced iterations. I also cover a bonus hybrid rig that can be used interchangeably between nymphs and dry flies.
THE BEST DEAL on high quality tying beads. I tie with these. Use code "TROUTFLIES" at checkout to get 10% off!

Great content!! I had to go to a level section of 5x due to high winds a couple years ago tight line nymphing. I use this even in extreme cold weather and have gotten use to handling 4-5x as my running line. When I fish a local tournament I can’t use this because of rules so I use a similar line leader that you’ve described. Cortland makes a double tapper slightly weighted line that works good for dries and nymphing as well. I really enjoy your videos, thanks a bunch!!

Thanks! Those micro leaders really are a game changer for presentations at distance.

Excellent video. Will you be attending the Fly Tying Expo in March - Friday Session?

I'll be tying both days and walking around a bit generally. Hopefully I'll get to hang out in Joe Bradley's booth a bit as well.
