For almost every dry fly there is a wee wet version and if there isn’t a recipe out there for your favourite dry fly then its worth developing one. The key points to consider are to minimise the body and to accentuate the wing which should lay back at around 45 degrees.

Almost every English dry fly has a wee wet imitation. This is mine Greenwells Glory wee wet. Its a great little fly for across and down and works particularly well when fished along with a bead head spider.{{end}}

o here you have a fly that fishes well as a formidable traditional river wet fly is now vying for a position as a very effective middle dropper for loch style fly fishing ... and its only a couple of hundred years old. One of my favourite flies in that situation is a Dunkeld and over the last two seasons I have found the Bredbo to be a very comfortable alternative particular in summer months when fish are turned onto the wing colour of the dominant local grass hopper the yellow winged hopper.{{end}}
