Learn to Czech Nymph in BC<\/h1>\n

Over the past 5 years I have spent quite a bit of time teaching beginner and advanced fly anglers how to employ the method of presenting a nymph to fish on a short line in fast water. \u00a0This technique is commonly referred to as Czech or Polish nymphing. It is very effective for fly fishing fast streams such as those found on the west coast of beautiful British Columbia.<\/p>\n

Quite often the fish caught are in the 10-14″ inch range, but in some cases surprisingly large fish take the little #10 to #18 nymphs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\"Czech<\/a>

Some flies used when I teach the Czech nymph Technique<\/p><\/div><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Our streams have many of the standard insects such as stoneflies, caddis, and many mayfies due to the pristine water conditions. \u00a0Using fly patterns that imitate these insects in their nymph stage is critical to the success of the Czech nymph technique.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\"Stonefly<\/a>

Adult Stonefly Size #10 are common in June<\/p><\/div><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

When teaching we use various fly rods specifically designed for Czech nymphing such as Admira, Vision and Sage.<\/p>\n

\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\"Czech<\/a>

Admira 10′ 4wt is an excellent choice for nymphing<\/p><\/div><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
\"Sage<\/a>

The Sage 99 is a great choice for Czech Nymphing<\/p><\/div><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

One of my favorite things about using this style of fly fishing is you never know what you’re going to catch and you always have to be prepared and remember your tippet strength! \u00a0The normal tippet size is 3X or 4X fluorocarbon in our coastal streams.<\/p>\n

If you are interested in learning more about this style of fishing there are many books available including one by George Daniel just published this year: Dynamic Nymphing: Tactics, Techniques, and Flies from Around the World<\/a>\"\"<\/div>\n

\n

If you want to get some hands-on training you can book one of my guided trips here<\/a> or take this online course and learn the technique of Czech Nymphing<\/a> on our beautiful coastal BC rivers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
