The Ultimate Guide to Fly Fishing Rigs (Dry Flies, Nymphs, & Streamers!) | Ep. 93

The Ultimate Guide to Fly Fishing Rigs (Dry Flies, Nymphs, & Streamers!) | Ep. 93

If you don't rig your flies correctly, you won't catch fish.

Alright, that's a bit dramatic - but it's not far off from the truth! The way your flies are rigged impacts your ability to present them in as realistic a way as possible. And since our goal is to fool fish into thinking our fake fly is the real thing, you can see how important it is to correctly rig your flies. In this episode, Spencer Durrant walks you through how he rigs his dries, nymphs, and streamers, sharing the exact steps he uses after 20 years of fly fishing, a few years of guiding, and teaching thousands of new anglers here at VFC.

You'll also learn about:

  • How to correctly size tippet for multi-fly rigs
  • The best flies to start with when you begin your day on the water
  • Tips for casting in the wind
  • How to tell what size and type certain flies are
