Green Snail Dry Fly
Fishing Tips
The art of fishing flies is all about imitating the food source of the fish, so if you notice your catches have been eating snails, try casting snails as bait instead of fishing flies! Snails are best fished in a dead drift manner, allowing it to sink slowly and present naturally to the fish. It can be particularly effective in lakes and ponds where snails are a prevalent part of the trout's diet.
