The French: I Like their fries, flies, and…

So that headline may have included one of the worst jokes I’ve ever dared to write down, but this video shows some of the most effective nymphing I’ve seen. I found it cruising Facebook today and liked watching this guy fish.

Those familiar with international fly fishing competitions will tell you that the French team knows their stuff (unfortunately for us Americans), especially when it comes to catching fish from shallow water with nymphs. This video is a little long and the music may give you a headache too, or at least make you nervous in some form, but this is a great technique to have in the quiver for the appropriate situations. So click on the link below, turn the sound down low and enjoy some great French nymphing footage.
