Wet Fly Fishing on Rivers

The key to successful wet fly fishing is letting the flies "dead drift". In this DVD I show you the three key techniques. 
The "across" method - I find this technique particularly effective on crinkly, near flat glides, when fish are looking up, 
eagerly knocking off duns and emergers. 

"The Escalator" A technique that I have developed over the years but is an easy style to master, increases your
search area and imparts a lift to the flies as the drift fishes out. 

And the "upstream" style of wet fly fishing. I love this short line upstream style, it has a high work rate and requires
complete focus. However, the flies fish naturally, in a dead drift. So if you want to up your catch rate, stop facing 
downstream! 


The fishing methods demonstrated are:

?Down and Across
?Square Across
?The Escalator
?Fishing The Wet Fly Upstream

While down and across is demonstrated it is not a method Oliver recommends!
