It’s just when you think you’ve uncovered something truly unique in fly fishing that someone throws water on your campfire. In Nick Mills’s case, it’s nymphing for clams. “I was bouncing a nymph down the riffle when the line went taut. Raising the rod tip I felt a weight, a slight pull, and although there was some give to it, unlike if I had been fast to a rock, whatever was on the line didn’t fight back.” On MaineToday.com.
