Lots of experienced anglers have made the switch to clear lines, which is great, but I am a big believer that if your going to go clear, you must fish the line often, and be very focused on where your fly lands at the end of the cast

Comparing that to drift net fishing you particularly get a lot more fishing XP per hour, although the hunter XP is slightly better at black chin's, only if you're using an alt though

Euro nymphing - a large arbor, narrow spool reel is best here, and because this style involves long thin leaders, a full frame (closed cage) design is preferable for the same reason as above

Using high-quality leaders and adjusting your weight based on current depth makes a substantial difference in drift speeds
