Czech Nymphing

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. You can work through and cover
a lot of water quite quickly. I use it, where appropriate, but with
only two nymphs; three I have trouble keeping untangled, even with the
very short line.

Exactly. Raising the rod can also help with the depth of the nymphs.
I've fished water using a strike indicator for about 5 feet of water,
but when I move on to shallower water, I simply lift the strike
indicator out of the water and set my depth that way. WFM.
