When it comes to euro nymphing, there are few people more experienced than George Daniel. Guide, college professor of fly fishing, former Fly Fishing Team USA member—George has dedicated his life to fly fishing. He has honed his fly fishing techniques, especially euro nymphing techniques, through 1,000s upon 1,000s of days on the water.

In this video we spend a morning on the river dry dropper fishing for trout with George. While the main focus is on a mono leader and euro nymphing techniques, there are tons of great learning moments for those who fish with a standard fly line as well. He talks about flies, his rod and leader, how to approach and cover water, how to cast, how to land fish, and a whole lot more. This video is truly loaded with information!
