It requires navigating into the water

Fly fishing is only possible when you choose the right wading bottom. Many types of water feature different bottoms. Sand and gravel are the safest, while rivers and streams can be less stable. Cobble and boulder surfaces can be slippery and algae-covered. If you're wading in water that is knee-deep, you may find it difficult to reach your target. You can use your wading crew to help you find the right place to start.


It requires a focus on presentation of flies

Fly fishing requires more than casting a line. The correct dressing of flies is also important. Make sure to apply the desiccant or floatant before the fly is wet. This will increase the fly's buoyancy and appearance. Before it lands on the waters, the fly should be able to mimic Wile-E. Coyote’s plummet.

It takes a hair shopper

There are many types of flies that require hair stackers. These include Elk Hair Caddis, Elk Hair Caddis, and Stimulators. This tool will help you line up your hair so that it looks the best when you tie on the fly. Not all hair stackers work the same. This is because some hair can be hard to stack after it has been washed. The best hair stacker will depend on what you like and what flies are you trying to tie.
