When you’re drifting nymphs for fussy trout, sometimes it’s better to remove an indicator. In this great video from Jensen Fly Fishing, Dave Jensen demonstrates how he finally hooked a wary cutthroat trout by using a modified drop-shot rig. It’s also educational to see where Dave places his flies and how he follows them with the rod tip. And finally, if you watch carefully you’ll be able to see the trout he and Amelia have spotted—if you observe carefully and train your eyes.
NOTE: This rig may not be legal everywhere because the weight is below the fly. Check the regulations for the waters you fish.
