Be prepared for different conditions in the high country. Weather started out mild then blizzard like conditions while in the canyon on the water. Multiple Nymph rigs require a differnt cast to lay properly. Timing on the hook set with the inidcator is critical, setting the hook like a new cast allows false sets to be recast immediately. Learned more about playing the fish to the net. Keeping the correct and constant amount of pressure is the key.
