I used to HATE fishing with nymphs. What bugged me the most was dealing with split shot - taking it off, or putting it on my rig. You've gotta get those tiny slits in the shot lined up with your tippet, then crimp it down, and NOT drop it all in the river. It's not fun to cast with, either.

The biggest problem is how much split shot actually effects your ability to feel what your flies are doing, and how they're drifting. By ditching split shot, you gain a TON of feedback and control over your rig. That means more fish in the net. Today on Untangled, you'll learn how to get your flies down deep without split shot, and why it's actively harming your nymphing game.

You'll also learn about:

• Why you should put your own spin on fly patterns, if you tie your own flies
• Why a 6-weight rod is ideal for sink-tip lines and streamers
• How to spot the bugs when fish are rising, so you can accurately match the hatch
