In their first video, Modern Nymphing, Devin Olsen and Lance Egan shared the techniques, gear, rigging and expertise that have propelled them to competitive fly fishing success. Gilbert Rowley boosted the project with his film making acumen, and in so doing, set the bar for instructional fly fishing videos. The stunning camera work, concise instruction and captivating action has motivated thousands of anglers to become versed in these European inspired techniques. Modern Nymphing provided a foundation on which advanced nymphing techniques can be learned.
In this video, Devin and Lance elevate your nymphing with thorough instruction and theory to advance your understanding and effectiveness on the water. Casting, common drift mistakes, arm & rod positioning, managing line & leader, sighter angles, strike detection, drift principles, stream positioning, approach, and many other elements are meticulously covered to provide an in-depth nymphing masterclass. This project was filmed on public water of various types including technical, heavily fished tailwater and freestone rivers. The principles and theorem presented in this comprehensive video are sure to improve your enjoyment and success on the water.

Another excellent production. Great building block on top of the foundation video Modern Nymphing. Demonstrated new techniques and subtle tactics that one would only learn on multiple guided trips. I'm hoping for a third installment to add to my video library of Euro style nymphing. Thank you Devin and Lance for sharing your years of experience.
After viewing the first DVD I had to get the second. What we have here is the latest example in a long series of flyfishing must haves. There are certain generous teachers of the sport, Joe Brooks, Lefty Kreh, Gary Lafontaine, Doug Swisher, George Daniel, etc. that haver provided us with "bibles" of how to fly fish. These references are timeless because we go back to them over and over to try to absorb all the parts, the totality and the details, the essence of what is communicated. This DVD series is the latest version of American flyfishing references and I cannot thank enough all who were involved with this project for their selflessness, care and thought in providing these DVDs for all of us. Whether one "euro nymphs" or not, the information provided will benefit all levels and styles of fishermen. Quite simply, I am waiting on the edge of my seat for anything coming out from this crew.
