Recently, I often hear a question about which fly to choose over water, which will meet the angler's expectations for a successful cat. This is called the theme of the river;) because it depends on everything from the season of the year, the color of the water, the atmospheric conditions, the method we want to fish for, we will choose the baits.
Hundreds of throws & oacute; in one outing over g & oacute rivers or other water reservoirs is not surprising in fly fishing. Each fishery is different and should be carefully known to match the lure. Therefore, many novice anglers are quickly discouraged from this method. However, the satisfaction offered by catching trout in the Dunajec or grayling on the San River is indescribable. Therefore, in this article, we will try to help you choose the key element that fly baits are.
Fly fishing is characterized by a multitude of lures. Some of them resemble insect larvae, other insects already fully developed, and other small fish. However, the problem that is especially interesting for beginners is the selection of the bait for the type of fishery and species of fish that we want to catch.
Nymph is a small lure that imitates small insects in aquatic life. Available in many sizes and shapes, they are ideally suited to a small depth, but if you want to carry it deeper, you will need to use a nymph loaded with a tungsten body. The nymphs detail and imitate caddles and collarflies are perfect for catching grayling, which are found mainly in the rivers of the Gulf of Finland. By choosing a nymph, we can look under the pebbles in the river and observe what larvae there are, what are the colors and what size. This will help you choose the right bait for the natural fish environment.
When fishing on a dry or wet fly, it is important to observe what is happening on the surface of the water, what insects are flying above the surface of the water, what color they have, what size. Dry fly baits are carried on the water surface, so they should float properly. Dry flies are often used to catch brown trout and white fish. Most often, we will see them on San, Danube or Rabie in summer and autumn.
Wet flies are lures that imitate floating insects just below the surface of the water. Wet flies are recommended for advanced anglers, such as r & oacute, as well as beginners. Used most often in the spring and early summer, although in some fisheries it can be used throughout the season. A wet fly is a guarantee of high efficiency. We encourage you to use it when fishing for trout or grayling and white fish, but it should be noted that you should observe the fishery, how fish feed and how insects behave over water behave.
If we decide to streamer, then for the beginning, I recommend choosing a streamer or a feather imitating a small fish, and another imitating a leech. Perfect for catching trout, pike or other predator in our waters.
When choosing a fly, we must remember that its size will depend on the river, on which we fish, on the transparency of water, on the season of the year, on atmospheric conditions, etc. It is therefore important to have flies in our box in various hook sizes, in very different colors, for example, gliding, torso, etc. Choosing a lure for a fishery requires not only experience, but also continuous observation, changing conditions and atmospheric conditions. It is worthwhile to use the knowledge that experienced anglers are willing to share.
Every angler who has even a little experience knows that there is not one perfect fly that will meet our expectations for a successful fly. On the same stretch of water, several anglers can catch fish, but each for a different lure and all these flies will be perfect for this river, on this day, under these conditions or on the contrary two anglers fishing at the same time on the same river, next to each other on the same bait and one with success, the other without taking. That's why it's important to be able to read water, get the right fly, fly, experience and train, and that makes perfect.
Do not be discouraged by the initial setbacks, each successive throw will teach you how to properly lead the lure, and using the real-looking ready baits available in our store will increase your chances of success.
