Wet Fly Fishing on Rivers
The key to successful wet fly fishing is letting the flies "dead drift". In this DVD I show you the three key techniques.
The "across" method - I find this technique particularly effective on crinkly, near flat glides, when fish are looking up,
eagerly knocking off duns and emergers.
"The Escalator" A technique that I have developed over the years but is an easy style to master, increases your
search area and impartsa lift to the flies as the drift fishes out.
And the "upstream" style of wet fly fishing. I love this short line upstream style, it has a high work rate and requires
complete focus. However, the flies fish naturally, in a dead drift. So if you want to up your catch rate, stop facing
downstream!
The fishing methods demonstrated are:
?Down and Across
?Square Across
?The Escalator
?Fishing The Wet Fly Upstream
While down and across is demonstrated it is not a method Oliver recommends!
The Patterns demonstrated are:
?March Brown
?Snipe Bloa
?Dark Needle
?Greenwell"s Glory
?Stewart"s Black Spider
?Oliver Edwards Yellow Spider.
