Encouraging Clear Mystery Dispeller
My fears and trepidations were quieted by the DVDs and book. Practical and clear, extraordinarily helpful. I say that as a 76 year old geezer and life-long fisher, who has read, watched and been guided by the best (I’ve been very fortunate). As a fellow author, I found the writing style crisp and refreshing, no nonsense yet colorful, fun to read. The DVDs were exceptionally well done, standouts. I especially found the on-the-water scenes insightful, clarifying a lot of the mystery about Euro nymphing.

Another fantastic production. I have been on the water with Devin, have followed these three (Gilbert) for a few years, and their video is consistent with their teaching. Great teachers and phenomenal at what they do. You'll see it in the video. I own both and it is a great thing to hear the instruction over and over. They don't hold back or hide anything. Just awesome.
Just add water...
If you want to learn Euro-nymphing and be successful at it, read Tactical Fly Fishing and then watch Modern Nymphing, Elevated. The level of detail and no BS presentation in both book and DVD make these the best I've seen. I guess the best thing I can say is: follow the instructions in these and you WILL catch more fish.
Tactical Book
This book fills is a fabulous resource. Devin’s scientific background and thought process separates this book from any other I’ve read on flyfishing. On its surface— tight line nymphing drew my interest due to its universal approach to trout fishing that could be applied to most habitats and any new stream I might one day fish. Finding success on my first stab at it- I quickly realized there were subtlies and nuence that could take years to develop. This book answers many of the questions I’ve had and makes the case for continuing on. Flyfishing is on many levels therapeutic and what limited time I am able to breakaway from work, I greatly appreciate minds like Devin’s who willingly share in such a compelling way. Very well done- thoughtfully written highly recommend! Thank you Devin for sharing your insight and the joy it has given me on the water!
Elevated
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.
Modern Nymphing Elevated
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.
Modern Nymphing Elevated
Another euro-nymphing masterpiece from messrs Olsen, Eagan, and Rowley that fine tunes all the information from their previous video and provides detailed examples of a multitude of fishing situations and ways to apply modern nymphing techniques in order to achieve the best presentation possible.
Modern Nymphing.....Elevated
Round two of the Modern Nymphing series did not disappoint. Gilbert Rowley stepped up to the plate and hit one out of the park with beautiful photography and excellent sound recording. Recorded on public lands in the West, Devin and Lance continue the educational excellence with their easy to listen to demonstrations that really help clarify a lot of questions I had after watching the the first in the series. Both men bring so much to the table with their extensive fishing background. It is not something you sit and watch at a whole sitting (at least if your 70, like I am). Broken in to segments, it guides the viewer through common casting issues and mistakes....offers new ways to enjoy Modern Nymphing...how to read water and they clearly demonstrate why this technique has so many advantages. My wife even sat through the first viewing with and said, "You're really hooked on this, aren't you?". I am and would recommend you get both....you'll want to watch them a lot.
