well, relatively speaking as far as deep and fast. i'm going to be fishing the Guadalupe river next week and would like some tips on casting. the most productive fishing has been had using woolly buggers and nymphs way down low in the water column and the river is flowing at about 700 cfs. i've been told to use lead to get the fly down in the feed zone and the last time i fished (when the flow was increased to 1100 cfs unexpectedly) i quickly grew tired of flinging this monstrosity of line, lead, leader, tippet, dropper, and nymph. i've determined that i need to just use a flick-and-follow technique instead of normal overhead casting. anyone have suggestions for fishing such a rig? i'll be using a 6wt/9'/WF6F, and a 3wt/7'/DT3F setup (all i have right now).

take him fishing
