Fall fishing low water on the Weber River can be tricky. But those shallow holes can hold giant brown trout. So we grab our Euro-Nymph rods and head out with Mickey Anderson from Fish Tech Outfitters to catch some buttery browns. And boy do we latch into some monsters. We also show how to effectively fish with a Euro-rig when the river alternates between big, deep holes to fast-currents.
