A wet fly is more an imitation of a stage of life of aquatic insects. Many wet flies imitate a struggling nymph as it attempts to reach the surface of the river.

These same wet flies also suitably do an impression of dead or drowning insects. Either way, one thing about wet flies for trout fishing is that they generally imitate aquatic insects in motion, moving to the surface or drowning in the water.

Winged Flies

Winged wet flies are designed to imitate the adult stage of an insect during brief times when it may be underwater--mayflies which hatch on subsurface rocks and rush to the surface as fully grown adults, caddis fly adults which dive underwater to lay their eggs. Some pattern have been devised to resemble small fry / baitfish

Dabbler & Wet Mayfly & Summer Olive Flies

Generally these beautiful flies are designed and selected for use according to conditions of light and water clarity rather than the attempt to follow natural patterns of insect hatches. They have wonderful action and movement in the water, a must when fishing in the 'loch style'.
