If you could sit down and listen to the person who was invited to develop river runs through it,

would you check it out? Would you listen to the person who literally brought nymphing to the forefront

in the U.S. back in the day? What about a person who could rattle on about the brief history

of every person in the U.S. who paved the way for present-day fly anglers and the trajectory

that we're on now. Well, today you're in luck because we have Gary Borger back on the show

to take a deep dive into the history of fly fishing, to get into tips and tricks, and to hear

how he's been doing it for over 60 years. This is the Wet Fly Swing podcast where I show you the best

places to travel to for fly fishing, how to find the best resources and tools to prepare for that

big trip and what you can do to give back to the fish species you love. Hey, I'm Dave, host the

wetfly swing podcast. I've been fly fishing since I was a little kid. I grew up around a fly shop

and have created one of the largest fly fishing

podcast in this country. I've also interviewed more of the greatest fly anglers than just about

anyone in the world. Gary Borgher, the author of nymphing and the book Naturales, is going to share

his stories of the people and tips he has connected with over the years. You're going to hear about who the person was who invented the double hall and how Gary is connected to that.

You will find out how he developed into the Fenwick fly fishing schools back in the 70s and how that was a major breakthrough back in day.

And you're also going to find out how his first video was

actually the first instructional fly fishing video ever produced.

Plus, you will hear about the three types of lies that fish use while in the water,

how to recognize them and which of the two you need to focus on this year on the river

to catch more fish.

Did I mention this was episode 600?
