drew, this is a very slow, thorough method that targets suspended fish, the idea (and the very thing that makes the fnf so deadly) is to keep the fly in front of the fish(s) for as long as possible . the retrieve can vary from just letting the fly sit for a whole minute....jiggle it....let it sit for another minute. conversely some days they hammer it on the way back to the boat.
one word of advice if you want to really learn the FNF (or any other new technique for that matter), don't take any other rods, take ONLY the FNF setup, mhall said it....you can go batcrazy fishing the fly, which makes easy to lay down and get back in your comfort zone.
