first weber hog of my fly season

[FOD]

funny you ask. the answer is yes I use weight when nymph fishing. I fished for a while today and finally realized I AM USING TOO MUCH WEIGHT. As soon as I took off a split shot I was perfect and started getting a whole lot more strikes. I used two flies below an strike indicator. It really depends on how much line to have below the indicator by how deep the holes/runs your fishing. I change it up all day. Then I like to use one split shot above the first fly then about 8-18 inches line dropper below with 2 split shots between the two flies about 4-6'' apart from each other and the flies. The size of split shot also depends on how deep the water is and how fast. It can take some experimentation but as soon as you can get one fly bouncing right off the bottom and the other anywhere from 1- 3 feet from the bottom, get a good drift and.........................POW.............

hope this helps [fishon]
