The "D"

[Bigcat]

This is an interesting topic! I am still quite new to fly fishing so I'm having a little difficulty figuring out the chronomid or deep nimphing or whatever its called. I watched some tubers really catch some nice fish last year at IP res. It seemed like they would just sit real still in their float tubes, and their line was hanging directly below them. The water was only 13-15 feet deep. They would hook set and the fish would come jumping out of the water right in from of them. I have no idea if they were using a floating or sinking line, or a strike indicator/float, or what. But they sure caught a lot of fish.

Can you give me more information about the procedure? What kind of fly line? How much leader? Tapered leader? Sinkers? Strike indicator? What size and color of flies? Do they hit it hard or just slurp it in? Do you using fish right on the bottom, a foot off the bottom, or suspended?

Ok thats enough questions for now. Thanks!
