Tip
Tip: Weight nymphs with bead or wire to reach the bottom where fish feed
How to do it: Add bead or wire weight to nymphs so they reach bottom-feeding fish
Mistake it fixes: Fishing unweighted nymphs where fish feed on the bottom
Why it works: Bottom-feeding fish require flies at depth. Weight gets nymphs down to that zone.
When it matters most: Nymph fishing
