Wet Fly

QUICK GUIDE

A wet fly is one of the four main categories of fly lures used in fly fishing. It resembles an insect under the water surface. Wet flies can imitate aquatic insects, drowned insects, or the larval stages of aquatic insects swimming to the surface to hatch.

Wet flies are traditionally tied with a tail, body, wings, and soft hackle.

A wet fly is traditionally fished in a down and across swing.
