The proof is in the fishing. Respectfully rvreclus

Whether cast upstream, floated downstream, or downstream with a slow stripping retrieve at the end of the drift that turns a dry fly into a wet fly, it is all about controlling the presentation.

A dead drift is essential for things that are dead. Spinners need a real dead drift and eggs bounce along the bottom with no "life". Most bugs move so little dead is more correct than moving (and you can't always be perfectly dead either).

I know this to be true, becuase I am still very un-skilled at dry fly fishing, in general.
I very rarely get a Trout to hit my dries when I'm in a situation where I have to deal with
casting across variable seams of current to reach a rising fish; and conversely, when I'm in a spot
where the current(s) are favorable to getting a good drift from my... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (corlay) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71284 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 20:17:36 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71273/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71273 If you're prospecting, cover all the water you can reach, then step up a couple of steps and do it again. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (bulldog1935) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71273 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 12:12:09 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71269/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71269 technique of the experienced fishermen. It can sometimes be hard to get trout to hit a caddis imitation using a dead drift. Of course, it has a lot to do with the way caddis hatch out--ballooning to the surface and taking off quickly (unlike mayflies, which remain in the surface film longer). ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Line Guard) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71269 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 11:15:28 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71259/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71259 feeds@yuku.com (whrlpool) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71259 Sat, 13 Jun 2009 05:22:53 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71256/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71256 ]]> feeds@yuku.com (jrb78) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71256 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 20:38:21 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71255/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71255 feeds@yuku.com (harleydeen) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71255 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 20:15:04 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71253/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71253 feeds@yuku.com (BH Spey) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71253 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 19:55:14 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71252/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71252 ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Spencer DT) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71252 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 19:53:14 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71251/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71251 feeds@yuku.com (cofisher) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71251 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 19:47:22 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71249/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71249 feeds@yuku.com (keebranch) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71249 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 19:42:50 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71247/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71247 feeds@yuku.com (harleydeen) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71247 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 19:21:05 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71246/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71246 feeds@yuku.com (Cornmuse) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71246 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 19:13:35 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/reply/71245/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html#reply-71245 ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Spencer DT) http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/sreply/71245 Fri, 12 Jun 2009 18:09:09 GMT http://fiberglassflyrodders.yuku.com/topic/9417/t/How-Important-is-a-Drag-Free-Drift-.html
