WOT 199: Nymphing Deep Pools and Experimentation with Jon Messinger

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Jon Messinger, from Denver, Colorado.  Jon grew up on a ranch in Pagosa Springs, Colorado, where time on the river was part of everyday childhood play.  He fell in love with fishing the small streams around his home, and targeting hard to reach trout he found on the San Juan River.  Eventually, Jon moved to Bozeman where he began creating music and continued to fly fish.  Now, Jon is back in Colorado where he guides for Colorado Trout Hunters.  We discuss techniques for nymphing deep pools, experimentation on the river, and fishing with friends when you’re the only one not catching fish.More About Jon:Instagram: @flymessingerColoradoTroutHunters.comRelated Articles at WadeOutThere:READ: WADEOUTTHERE | Is My Nymph Getting Down?  Take a Peek.READ: WADEOUTTHERE | The Two Best Times for Experimenting on the RiverREAD: WADEOUTTHERE | How to Get the Most From Your Time on the WaterREAD: WADEOUTTHERE | What Makes a Good Day's Fishing?READ: WADEOUTTHERE | Why We Take Our Children Fly FishingREAD: WADEOUTTHERE | Don't Keep ScoreREAD: WADEOUTTHERE | A Dozen Techniques for Getting Your Flies Down While NymphingSign up for Jason's free email newsletter (WadeOutThere Wednesday) at WadeOutThere.com/Wednesday
