It most resembles short-line, high-stick nymphing, EXCEPT that you don't
really raise the rod that high (because you don't have that much line
out). It is really only well suited to particular types of water:
smaller, riffly, fairly fast high-gradient streams. For that kind of
water, though, it's a killer technique.
hmm... sounds like i should give it a try this spring in the smokies.
would a longer rod (8-9') be preferred to our typical 7-7.5 dry fly rigs?

A longer rod will be much better for high sticking but the over hanging
bushes and creek side rododems should be consider.ed.
The real problems is getting in and out of the stream , JR do you aim
rod ahead between brush or reverse rod and lead with butt?

By the way Wayno you have to admire Redddick admitting Dulke was defeatedd
