By far the most enjoyable method of fly fishing is dry fly fishing, in some rivers similar to the chalk streams of England they are the only real flies permitted to be used. A dry fly, as the name suggests, are flies deliberate to be fished at the surface on the water. They're created to imitate a good number of different insects. There's extremely little that matches a dry fly being taken by a for brown. Dry flies imitate many different natural flies from dragon flies, mayflies, caddis, sedge, damsel flies, flying ants and midges.
Dry flies are sometimes formed without particular insect in mind, such type of artificial flies are called fancy or attractor flies, the Wickham's Fancy can be an example attractor or fancy fly. A number of systems can be used while using the dry fly starting with traditional casting using a fly line and tapered leader which turns the fly over through the cast enabling it to softly fall onto the water like a natural fly, stimulating the brownie Trout. Additional techniques used consist of multiple dry fly rigs and dapping. In reality dry fly fishing is probably the oldest form of fly fishing when long poles were used as rods plus fly lines made from horsehair or other natural fibres. These had been the initial dapping flies!
Today scores of fly tyers have fashioned dry flies, including Cannon WIllliam Greenwell's Greenwell Glory to the modren Klinkhammer. One of the most famed these days would be the Klinkhammer designed by fly tyer Hans Van Klinken. The Klinkhammer has a parachute hackle which floats at the surface, a post that is certainly obvious to the angler including a body that sits on the water surface and tucks down into the surface film imitating an emerger, insect emerger. Of every one of the dry fly fishing flies obtainable it's the Klinkhammer that is recommended to be kept in all fishermans fly box. Including size 8 to size 22 the Klinkhammer makes River Trout approach to the surface and feed.
