The belief that lures and wet flies are the only flies capable of catching trout in lakes and reservoirs is being increasingly challenged. Anglers are now beginning to accept that the dry fly is much more than a minor tactic in the pursuit of the fish in stillwater. Indeed, trout do rise to the dry fly even when no natrual insects are present on the water adn these fish are often larger than average specimens. This book not only seeks to prove the efficiency of the floating fly but also outlines a style of fishing which is exceedingly pleasurable in its own right. Based on 25 years of the author's experience, the book reviews suitable tackle, analyses the theory behind this style, and considers a variety of techniques - some traditional, some new. The most important aquatic and terrestial insects are discussed fully and the angler is provided with a selection of killing patterns which will allow him to make the most of this exciting branch of angling.
