Looking into some of the details of Czech Nymph Fishing I get a little confused. The use of long rods, short leaders with next to no line and "dapping" instead of casting. Here is where I'm lost. Using this method, how can you ever wade in a stream and work your way upstream without scaring the fish into the next county? One account regarding the evolution of the technique even said that the leader was merely tied to the tip of the rod.
Can anyone bring this into focus for me? Thanks.
