If there is a secret to bass fly fishing, and a useful dry fly technique for other native fish species, its got to be putting your fly in the zone and keeping it there for as long as you can. With dry flies that’s fairly easy. Cast it right into the snags or above the margins of the weed beds and hold it there without drag for as long as you can. If nothing happens then just give the fly a little wiggle so that it creates rings on the surface of the water and wait again. Repeat this process a few times until your satisfied that the structure you are covering doesn’t hold an interested fish or until the fly is out of the zone. If fishing static doesn’t work than a great alternative is to position yourself so that you can fish along the structure and then strip the dry flies in using a variety of speeds twitches and pauses.
