Fly fishing flies for trout, grayling, pike and more
Fly fishing flies imitate insects, larvae, baitfish and other natural food. The right fly depends on season, water type, target species and how fish are feeding on the day.
Dry flies, wet flies, nymphs and streamers
Dry flies float on the surface and imitate insects on or near the water. Wet flies and nymphs fish below the surface and imitate larvae or emerging insects. Streamers imitate small fish and are effective for trout, perch and pike.
Choose the right pattern
In clear water and calm conditions, natural colours and subtle profiles often work best. In coloured water or when fishing streamers, more contrast, movement and visibility can help trigger strikes.
