Master Class Monday: How To Improve Dry-Fly Accuracy on Small Trout Streams, Part 2

This week’s Master Class Monday features the second part of Dave and Amelia Jensen‘s excellent lesson on the importance of accuracy when you’re fly fishing on a small spring creek. (Click here for Part 1.) Here, Amelia stalks big browns on a tiny stream, making use of the bow-and-arrow cast to ensure that her flies land directly in the trout’s feeding lane. For a good lesson on the bow-and-arrow cast, check out Pete Kutzer’s video on the technique.

  1. I am always amazed at the size of the fish in these videos. I am not looking for the name of the streams but where, in general, do Dave and Amelia film these videos?

    1. Amazing how such large fish are being caught in such a small habitat.
      I fished small creeks like this in NJ, NY, PA, DE and CO and never caught a trout over 16″.
      Great technique and a unique stream.
      Learned some good tips, maybe I can get a big buck like that.
