Dry Flies

This course is a discussion of a presentation by the National Fly Fishing Champion George Dainel  The course will explore the more advanced tactics of using nymphs with the "dropper" technique.  In the "dropper" technique, the strike indicator is actually a dry fly.  Approximately 25% of the strikes are on a dropper fly and would otherwise be missed without use of the dropper.   The student will learn the importance of weight balance between the nymph and the dry fly.

This course is meant as addendum to the previous class.  In this class, the student will learn a novel approach to fishing the stuborn streams that can be found in the mountains of the South.  It combines both fly fishing and in-line spinner fishing.  After the completion of this course, the student will have an approach that affords a good opportunity for a father and son team.
