Some facts about Fly Fishing Flies
Call it as what you want, fly fishing is a nice activity created out of the friendship of the fishermen themselves, the oceans, rivers and lakes they fish, as well as the beautiful fish they desire to catch. A few fishermen often go on the weekends, happy to encounter a fish or two during a holiday Fishing Trip with their loved ones. Nothing beats the thrill of mastering a new fly pattern, or creating specialized flies for ones’ unique fishing situations. Also, one cannot underestimate the sense of adventure that accompanies the fly-fisher on the prowl for the perfect materials, whether browsing the local fly shop, ransacking a craft store, or even salvaging road kill.
When it comes to fly Fishing Techniques, many fishermen have questions about the various options available. Two of those options include Dry Fly Fishing and Wet Fly Fishing. These terms refer to whether or not the fly actually gets wet or not.
Fly fishing is considered “dry” when the fly is cast over the water. The angler works to make the fly dance above the water, hoping to attract the attention of the fish below it. Such fly fishing flies are designed to replicate mosquitoes and other insects to which the particular fish may be attracted.
Fly fishing is considered “wet” when the fly fishing flies are actually submerged under the water – where their design allows them to sink to the bottom if necessary – in order to entice fish beneath the surface. Dry fly fishing is more difficult to maintain the normal look and movement of native food sources. On the other hand, many experienced anglers also prefer dry fly fishing because the action is more visible and exciting. Dry flies are those imitations of adult insects that hatch on the surface of the water and include Mayflies, Caddis, and others. Many species of fish will come to the surface when these insects are going through their metamorphosis from the nymph state into the adult state.
When using Wet fly fishing techniques, you will need to choose among a variety of wet fly types. Wet flies are effective because they are the most like real, live insects and imitate them as if they are in motion. Some of the flies that can be used are the Brown Wooly Worm, Brown Hackle Peacock, Olive Wooly Worm, Black Ant, Hare’s Ear, and Coachman. Most wet flies have soft hackling, which is beneficial because it invites the trout to grab it.
There are more than 10,000 different types of flies and to find the best one for the job can be trial and error. As a rule you use bright flies on a sunny day and dark coloured flies on a cloudy or overcast day. The green butt skunk fly is mainly black with a bright green piece of yarn, these flies are used a lot for Salmon but also used around the world with good effect.
