Fly Fishing With Wet Flies: The Complete Guide | Ep. 110
We spend A TON of time talking about dry flies, nymphs, and streamers. But there's another type of fly out there that doesn't get enough love. This fly is supposedly the easiest to use, AND it's the favorite of some of the world's best anglers.
I'm talking about wet flies, or soft hackles (they're the same thing).
In this episode of Untangled, you'll learn what soft hackles are, what they imitate, why you'd want use them, and how to fish them. This is another trick you can add to your skillset to help you put more fish in the net!
You'll also learn about:
- How to get good drifts across large, deep pools with multiple currents
- The differences between a 9' 4-weight and 9' 5-weight
- How to cast strike indicators
- The best strike indicators for mountain streams
