Identifying A Dry Fly

This week’s RIO Fly Fishing Tip shows how to identify a dry fly. There are many times when anglers are told that a "dry fly" is what you need, or even that the rule is "dry fly only". In those situations it is helpful to know how to identify a dry fly, and in this video Chris Walker runs through the key points that help make a fly float and thus, be a "dry fly".

RIO's Fly Fishing Tips series are short, less-than-a-minute videos, each bought to you by a RIO employee or ambassador and showing a single fly fishing tip to help you become a better fly fisher. The series includes freshwater, saltwater and Spey topics, and a mix of casting, fishing and gear tips - some basic, some technical, and everything in between.

Each new tip is released on RIO's Facebook and Instagram pages every Friday, so if you like the sound of this series and want to get these tips quickly, be sure to follow RIO on these platforms.
