EURONYMPH
SIMPLICITY, MINIMALISM AND EFFECTIVENESS
Euronymph fishing is relatively simple, minimalist and extremely effective. Unlike traditional fly-fishing, when Euronymphing you do not use the classic fly line but rather a mono line. At most, ultralight fly lines with a diameter of 0.55 mm are used.
This tackle setup offers you the advantage of almost weightless lines, that do not hang slack and are easy to keep completely out of the water. This way your line is totally unaffected from currents and obstacles as only the tippet and your nymphs are immersed. This allows you to always have direct contact to your nymphs at all times. Moreover, your nymphs will drift as naturally as possible along the river bottom where most of the fish hold.
The main advantage over classic nymph fishing is that you have perfect control of the drift through direct contact with the nymphs and can feel even the most delicate takes immediately and reliably.
