  • Ted Towendolly and the Wintu Origins of Short-Line Nymphing on The
    Ted Towendolly and the Origin of Short-Line Nymphing on the Upper Sac: How the Wintu Indians, the 49ers, Ted Fay, and Joe Kimsey Impacted Modern-day Nymphing with a Fly. BY ERIC PALMER October, 2017 A shorter version of this article first appeared in the April 2015 “California Fly Fisher”. The following is an expanded version of that article. It’s known by many names: Tight-line nymphing, short-line nymphing, high-stick nymphing, pocket water nymphing, and even Czech Nymphing. But in the end, they are all the same deadly nymphing technique that was first fished on the banks of Northern California’s Upper Sacramento River as far back as the 1920s at the hands of Wintu Indian Ted Towendolly. So for simplicity’s sake, let’s just agree to call it “short-line nymphing” since we’re trying to catch a trout that’s virtually at our feet with no more than a fly rod’s length of leader extended beyond the rod tip — a “short-line”. But, how the heck can we catch trout while standing right on top of them without spooking them? It’s easy. Short- line nymphing is a pocket water technique; that highly agitated water just below large rocks and boulders with the boiling, frothy dense cover fish crave. It provides safety and security from predators in a zone with abundant oxygen, cold temps and an infinite conveyer belt of food drifting right by The short-line nymphing lob — not pretty, but very effective. their nose. What’s not to love about that if you’re a trout? If they only knew what clever schemes fly fishermen have contrived to fool them.
