It is a known fact that trout fishing is mainly dominated by the use of "nymphs" (insects that populate the sub surface of the trout area) rather than "dry fly" concept. One must practice the art of fly fishing and efficient drag as well as using the correct species of dry fly to make a success of this sport. It is useful to know the most common varieties of "dry fly" in order to adapt the trout preferences that fly fishing has established over a period of time.
Here is a list of the ten most popular dry flies:
- Adams
- Bivisible
- Black Fur Ant
- Black Midge
- Dark Cahill
- Dave's Hopper
- Elk Hair Caddis
- Hair Wing Royal Coachman
- Irresistible
- Light Cahill
It is also mentioned earlier that most trout prefer nymphs to dry fly. The invention of real dry fly species that resembled the insect to a large degree made fly fishing a revived sport. The art of using these fishing flies and casting without drag makes it a great sport if you can time the operation right! The list given earlier of the type of trout flies or fishing flies must be learnt in more detail for the ardent angler since this is the knowledge that makes him or her sit out the time with the guarantee of catching a good basket of trout!
Dry Fly for Fly Fishing
The Adams constitutes a universal or general dry fly used in trout fishing. You do not need to use drag in this fishing fly and a good floating line at around ten feet is just right.
The Bivisible is the most widely used fly on rivers and especially lakes. Its dual color helps the angler to go for a great catch.
The Black Fur Ant is a floating surface fly on the upper layer of lakes. Occurring in the western region this fishing fly grows to sizes between 10 and 12. The best way of enticing the trout is to dangle the Black Fur Ant in front of the nose and slowly pushing it forward.
Similar to Ants the Black Midge is available any time in rivers. Its largest 14 size is rare since 20 - 28 is more common. Like the Ant it is wise to dangle the Black Midge in front of the trout's nose but should be allowed to drift in the case of moving current.
The Dark Cahill is conventionally used in meadows and such streams. The usual size depending on the current is between 12 and 16/
The Dave's Hopper seen in the summer to fall season can be a useful fishing fly that many use near the banks of streams or rivers. It should be allowed to drift with the current for best results.
Of the Caddis variety the Elk Hair Caddis is seen in sizes 4 to 22 and can be available in olive, tan, brown and gray shades. The best sizes are between 10 and 16 and the angler can best trap a trout by casting a little near and allowing to drift over the fish. A bit of bouncing will also yield good results.
In rushing currents as well as riffles and runs the Hair Wind Royal Coachman fly works well as it also gives good results in deep or slow runs. It is attractive to trout and other warm water fish. Larger sizes in still water and smaller size in faster currents makes your angling sport a pleasure.
This fly sure is Irresistible and the use of right sizes in specific waters of lakes, streams and enclosed creeks especially at night make it the ideal dry fly. It is also effective at the "seam" border of trout farms.
The Light Cahill is ideal during evening fly fishing for the upstream currents. A larger size of 12 is fine in the dark while one uses around 16 in the daytime.
Dry fly fishing offers many variations and several insects are available based on the local conditions. Experience over a period of time helps in learning small tips or secrets that make this sport so entertaining and challenging.

Anglers Book Supply Co 0811709965 Midge Magic $59.33 Groundbreaking research on matching midge naturals. Stepbystep tying sequences for dozens of new patterns. Hatch charts extensive catalog of patterns. 290 color photos; 7x9 inches 128 pgs. REVIEWS Excerpts from Fly Fisherman Magazine s September 2001 Holbrook immediately sets the tone of Midge Magic with his surprisingly nontechnical approach to fishing tactics and tackle. Holbrook s advice on nymphing is accurate as much for technique as it is a tonic for the obsessiveness of our sport: Watch the line but don t stare at it. It can mesmerize you. You could lose your footing and you ll miss the birds and trees and other nice things around you. In other words relax. You re here to enjoy yourself. Midge guru Ed Koch pipes up in these chapters to provide the angler who wants more technical talk some more information on gearrelated issues and his input balances the chapters nicely. This book teaches by doing and the extensive journal entries and imitative patterns provide a model for the ambitious angler to follow though the author doesn t force this model on the reader. The chapter Matching the Midge begins To start with I m not going to tell you that you have to do this. This is all part of the book s powerthe author earns your ear with content not volume. ABOUT THE AUTHORSNo one has studied midges more intently than Don Holbrook. For 25 years he has scoured the limestone streams of central Pennsylvania gathering and cataloging specimens studying them under the microscope and creating patterns to match every nuance of color structure and size. No one is as adept at fishing midges as Ed Koch who literally wrote the book on the subject. Holbrook and Koch here combine to present the definitive work on tying and fishing the tiny naturals with which you can catch trout virtually all year long. Don Holbrook has a degree in chemistry from Marshall University and works |

He even likes the bitter receptionist, though he’s the only one who does. He likes his wife, Midge, too, and their ice-dancing lessons. Midge works as a candle-party hostess – she quit her office job when Al’s dog ate her pet pigeon and Al promised Pulpy a promotion. But when Al retires and the tyrannical Dan takes over, the promotion vanishes. And then Dan’s oversexed wife, Beatrice, takes a shine to Pulpy, and Dan starts to think Midge is one hot tamale. Soon, the receptionist is smitten with Pulpy, Midge can’t get rid of Dan and Beatrice, and Pulpy’s job is in jeopardy. For once, Pulpy just might have to take a stand. |
