I would like to start off my post with Poky is an avid fly fisher. My hubby(his brother) and I do not walk on water. I could be persuaded but no way Mr Purist will.
We have talked a lot about our Deep Water nymphing during the summer. It consist of a 30' leader with one or more nymph/chironomids. One on the bottom then tags with second (some waters you can go up to 5 but it gets messy)
So, we drop this leaders straight down off a floating fly line....sound familiar.
From what I have read, it is the same as ice fishing, so why not?
I have been dying to try it, but missed Poky last weekend.
I did a fly tying show at Jimmy's All Season's Angler Saturday morning and showed several Chironomid patters that have great success with.
I am so stoked that these work but really not to surprised as to what they do in the soft water days.
Here are the Jigs
