Euro Nymphing. Tackle, methods and flies.
My favourite methods of fly fishing are dry-fly or sight-fished nymphs/bugs, but particularly during the winter, when fishing on spate rivers, the grayling are usually loath to rise to a dry fly and the water is too coloured, or the light too poor, to see the fish for sight-fishing. It is then that I resort to a range of nymphing techniques. Of which Euronymphing is my most used technique

Pesca a mosca per temoli e trote in Polonia con la canna da mosca Sunray Microlite GT 10' #2
Il Grand Tourer è un concetto, davvero, di cui ho discusso una volta con Tom , e lui l'ha portato in una direzione forse più fantasiosa della mia. Mentre l'industria delle canne da mosca sembra così focalizzata su canne da mosca a quattro pezzi con una sola mano, il brio Sunray ha fatto il passo successivo, sposato con bellissimi grezzi in cinque pezzi e componenti sottili. Carica la GT con una delle splendide linee "dry fly" e avrai la perfezione del touring su qualsiasi fiume aperto. Ovunque.
