I had to smile when I saw this bang-up-to-date KZfaq video that shows that Leonard Wright's ideas, that were seen as blasphemous by traditional anglers when he wrote two books about them in the 1970s, are now mainstream with a much younger generation.

I move my nymphs a lot too now. I started to notice I was catching a lot of fish whenever i put my rod under my arm to dig stuff out of my vest. Started bouncing my nymphs around a lot more and have started catching 2x the fish I used to. I dunno, maybe it's just confirmation bias but that's what I've noticed😂 I was under the impression for the longest time that the less movement the better but seems to me its the opposite. Of course bugs are different. I fish a lot of prince nymphs, hares ears, pheasant tails.... Stuff like that.

Yes. Heard recently to put floatant on the leader as well 👊🏻💪🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Been watching you for years but this video was full of great new tips and techniques I hadn't heard/considered before. Thanks!

I have tried this technique for the 1st time this autumn on the rivers Tees & Leven here in the NE of England and they have been if not very effective then very exciting. The trout and grayling have been making some dramatic rises and takes which don't always result in a solid hook up but definitely result in a big smile and plenty of gasps!

October caddis hatch coming off in PA right now. I’ve been doing some of this, appreciate the tips. Will try it this week.

Excellent video, lots of really useful tips, thank you, tight lines.

Well done Joe!

Look at video at 4:20 - 4:23... I am see fish rise underneath the overhang brush in the background?? Go watch them!!

Thank you for sharing !

Great information!! Thanks!!

Nice shirt! Thanks for the vid!

Always awesome advice. Been doing alot of dries on my 4wt fiberglass lately. One of these days gonna make it to Yakima to see that beautiful shop and bring home a new rod. Thanks!

Yes I like sounding super smart 🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻

Sweet video

I also have found that I have difficulty with straightening the tippet after casting.

Love the tips, thank you. Wondering do you casr downstream with these techniques or were you just facing downstream for the filming?

Would love to see you skate flies on trout spey rods!

Great video and I'm thankful, but dang it would be nice to show us ten seconds of what you're talking about; the actual presentations. I just got through watching two spey casting vids where the guy was casting and mending and explaining, and the camera is right on the guy lol. I realize there's some difficulty in filming the actual presentation, but this vid could've been just words on a website or in a book or article. It's a video- you can show us instead of just trying to describe it lol. But seriously, thank you; it was a great explanation of a cool technique. I've done similar on the Deschutes right about this time of year and it works. Works with nymphs and streamers, too

Hi. Will skating work in winter? On the Trinity in Nor Cal this coming week and I've never seen or tried this but am very interested.

What do you find is a good floatant? I am not familiar. I use a powder for my dry flies.

I'm not a trout fisherman, but for Atlantic salmon I was told that you want your tippet to sink because a floating tippet makes the fly look unnatural. Opinions?

we can't see the fly though!
