Long story longer
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.

Psst! Anyone want to
Psst! Anyone want to buy some depleted uranium? It's REALLY hot. Nuke those trout good. ;-)
In New Zealand coars
In New Zealand coarse anglers have shown a new way of getting the fly down to often phenominal depths and at great range by using long rods, up to 18 ft., (minimum 13 ft) mono lines, a tradiditional stick float with drifts of 30 plus meters drag free. Long rods make drifting a nymph between heavy weed beds far easier too with the better control that they offer on rivers that trditional fly fishers have given up on. Shot the float so just enough tip shows to see at distance with all the shot round the float bottom and fish a heavy weighted nymph up to 3 meters below. This technique works just as well on shallower water too; just set the depth by moving the float up or down to the required depth.

as most adept flyfis
as most adept flyfisherman are aware trout eat 80-90% of their food on the bottom or just above, I have been using the nymph teqnique for about 12 years now and it is the most productive way to catch trout I know.
