Dry Fly Tying Tutorial | Lure Making 

The Dry Fly stands as one of the most beloved patterns ever crafted, and for good reason. Its flawless imitation of a mayfly and its consistent performance over many years of fishing have solidified its reputation. This pattern proves highly effective across a wide variety of rivers and creeks, ensuring its enduring popularity for years to come, if not indefinitely!
As a Catskill-style fly, it boasts excellent buoyancy when heavily hackled, a pleasing silhouette, and versatility in sizing. While I typically tie it in sizes 16-20, some anglers go as small as a size 26 or as large as a size 10. Opting for a Cree hackle allows for the use of a single feather instead of two, though Cree feathers tend to be pricier. Personally, I employ the double feather method to achieve the distinctive brown and grizzly appearance. #angling #fishingtips #fishingtechniques #fishingtips
