Wet Flies

« **on:** 21/09/2011 at 19:05 »

Bought a few recommended wet flies earlier today: green wells, butchers and the claret and mallard to name a few. Only problem is... I have never really fished with wets before. I know it might sound like a stupid question but here goes. How do you fish wet flies? ( up and across, dead drift in teams etc).

Thanks

No such thing as a stupid question if you genuinely don't know the answer.

I'm honestly trying very hard not to be sarcastic here..... but if you know dry flies are fished upstream (well, mostly) then wet flies....... it's not rocket science.
