In this episode of RIO's "How To" series, RIO brand manager Simon Gawesworth explains and demonstrates how to fish nymphs in a lake or stillwater. Simon runs through some key retrieves that all nymph anglers need to use, and explains what the best rigs to fish nymphs and chironomids (buzzers) are.
Every lake angler will find a time when fishing nymphs and chironomids is the very best way to catch fish, and this video is a perfect lesson for anyone wanting to increase their knowledge of this deadly style of fly fishing.
RIO's "How To" videos are a series of short films that explain all you need to know to learn a particular way to fish, or cast. Where applicable, each film talks through the gear that you need, shows how to rig the gear, how to read the water, and how to fish that particular technique. These educational films are packed with information and top tips designed to improve the knowledge and skill level of all fly fishers. Each one is bought to you by a RIO employee or a RIO brand ambassador.

I've watched SO many videos about "how to catch fish" that are 90% playing and netting fish, with almost nothing about what setup they used. So THANK YOU for this great video!
What a beautiful fly box
I had the pleasure of meeting Simon several times. A true gentlemen and a expert fly fisher. Great vid
A great way to check the depth you're fishing is to clamp some hemostats to your bottom fly and chuck it in the lake. Tip up your rod and you'll see where the bottom is relative to your leader length. We do this to find where to put the bobber when we're fishing suspended chironomids so as to get the bottom fly about a foot off the bottom of the lake. If the hemos pull your bobber a foot under, you know you're right there.
Good teacher. Clear and concise.
One thing I'd like to add: vary the retrieve. Not just speed. Sometimes short tugs, sometime long fairly fast pulls combined with resting... And I like to look at trolling as another type of retrieve - it's actually the best way for a slow, constant retrieve (I've never mastered the hand-twist!).
I've been «trying» flyfishing for the last 28 years. However, I didn't know how to fish with nymphs as I'm a self learner and didn't have anybody to teach me how to. I've never caught a fish with a nymph; my takes always were with streamers and dry flies. I'm very glad to have watched your video and hopefully will up my fishing skills. Than you for your invaluable lesson.
I feel your pain, man. I started fly fishing as a kid in the 90s and there were two sources of information available to me…my books, trial and error…that’s it. Learning how to fly cast under such circumstances was hilarious.
Thank you for this tutorial, especially the figure 8 retrieve. I have seen people do it, but never shown what it is and how to do it. I enjoy your How To videos, keep it up. 👍🏻
Thank you for providing this valuable information. Greatly appreciated. U.S. Army, Ret. Texas
Great video and tips! Thanks!
Very well done instructional video. So much important and helpful info. However, in regards to rod tip position during the retrieve,depending on the fly being fished, it is sometimes far better to point the rod tip straight at the line. While it is true that the angler may sometimes break fish off on the take,not being directly tight to the fly on the retrieve may inhibit the action of the fly. This is especially true if using "buggy paterns".
I often have my rod tip in the water with the line,leader and fly as straight as possible. Over finicky fish,it may be the difference between a good or bad day.It is imperative that you do not lift the rod on the take,but rather just let the line come tight and be immediately ready to release line from the stripping hand. It takes concentration and discipline and fish will sometimes get the better of the angler but it is a technique well worth trying

Great video! Thanks a lot for that.
Where I live, I only got a small pond to practice fly fishing which doesn't hold any trout. I mostly fish for (smaller) roaches and rudd. Do you have any advice how to feel/see cautious strikes by smaller fish when nymphing in stillwater?
I have the same problem. It would be great to see a video for fly fishing on white fish in the lake.
According to Rio, You need a new fly line for every cast.
and it must be rio or you wont catch fish
I know only overhead, so I use only one line.... THAT's why I can't spey casting!!!!

Where can one get the fly tackle box you use in the video, Simon?
Gordon Miller looks like you can easily make it. Get foam pads and a empty fly box and glue the foam pads in it.
Dumb question but what are you casting to? Just randomly out into the rippling water?
Yes, you want to cast to a rise if you can but otherwise random
The socks!
Good taktik fly fishing!!!
thx:)
What's the story behind all your bracelets your wrist
Would you kindly tell me the brand of boat you used for this video? Thanks.
That's a Clackacraft. Great boats.
Well done. You mentioned using an indicator line but didn’t reference watching the line or an indicator when on the water, stating instead you fish mostly by feel. Most of my fishing is on streams & rivers where I like using indicators or my dry when fishing nymphs. Do you ever use indicators on flat water?
Absolutely!
Please….this was one big Rio commercial.
Dont forget to mention the importance of wearing glasses 😉
Great video. Learned a lot. You could splurge a little a get some flies. Jeez. So basic.
