Gold-Medal Coach Josh Miller, "Don't Change the Fly Change Your Technique"

Josh Miller is author of the best-selling book "Euro Nymphing: Tips, Tactics, and Techniques" (2024), guide and owner of the Trout Yeah Guide Service, and head coach of the US Youth Fly Fishing Team that won gold medals in Bosnia (2023) and in the Czech Republic (2024). In July, 2025, the world championships are on the team's home turf in Idaho and the youth team is going for a three-peat. In this episode, coach Miller discusses his introduction to fly fishing, his journey through the ranks of competitive fly fishing, and digs into his simplified nymphing system. Josh carries only a few fly patterns indifferent sizes, weights, and colors. In his mind there's often no need to change the fly pattern, the better choice is to make a better presentation.
