Floatant Fly

Dry Fly Fishing

The term dry fly fishing is used because the line and the flies float. However, there are lines and flies used for wet fly fishing too. The line is made from a polyamide monofilament substance.

Dry fly fishing will allow the angler to be able to see the fish as it strikes the fly. Ninety percent of the trout feed on the bottom of the water; however, the other ten percent makes up the difference in the anglers thrill and enjoyment of surface fishing.

Dry fly fishing is hard compared to other fly fishing as the fly you are using has to be identical to the fly the fish are taking off the surface of the water. If there are no fish feeding off the top of the water then the best option is not to fish dry flies. But when the fish are feeding off the top every fly fisherman will agree it's the best kind of fishing you could ever have.

The dry flies are natural imitators because they attract the fish by looking and acting the same way that the fish's natural prey would. The fly should land on the water as softly as possible and be allowed to drift downstream.

The angler should be aware and have knowledge enough to be able to spot potential places where trout may be laying in wait. In high current streams and rivers the line may over take the fly; if this happens the angler should then re-align the fly's drift. This is a technique called mending. Mending is very easy to learn how to do when the angler can see the fly.

After several casts and especially after a fish has been caught, the fly may not float as well as it did at first. So a technique which is called false casting may solve the issue. This means that when you're about to cast, don't leave the fly touch the water like normal but give the line a few extra flicks. Floatant also is a great tool which can be dabbed on the fly and make it float.

Dry fly fishing can be more productive in small streams if the angler stays low to the ground. This will help the angler hide their shadow so that the fish cannot see it. Anglers should always be ready in case of a strike, if the angler is not paying attention they could miss the chance to catch the big one.

You can also fish with dry flies on a lake or still water and this is easier for a beginner as unlike a river the water does not flow so presentation of the fly is much easier.

You should always carry multiple amounts of the same fly as they do easily get damaged and there is nothing worse than catching fish then the fly breaks off or gets unraveled and you can't catch more fish as you don't have a replacement fly.

What are some of most effictive bass flies on a small lake?

I looking for some to use around lilly pads.
Also some for use around rocky edges of the lake.

poppers and terrestrials. for bass you fish a wooly bugger like a streamer. strip and wiggle the rod tip. they are supposed to resemble a leech or small bait fish. you might try a beadhead, or a tiny split shot for more depth. remember, dark colors for MURKY water, brighter colors for clear water.
