Dry Flies for Duo (New Zealand Style) Fly Fishing

Bromium · 26-08-2013 02:00PM #1

Hi can anybody weigh in on the the best dry flies to use in fishing New Zealand Style or Duo preferably something that floats well to hold the nymph up and with good visibility as they can get hard to see in the riffles. I looked on the online store I order my flies from and they didn't seem to have anything suitable I ended up going for a few foam beetles with a flash of reddish pink on top for those riffly sections.

Cheers

I don't use Zealand style but the parachute flies or klincks would work.

Have tried the Klinks and they are great but can get a bit water logged even using Gink due to the body of the fly starting in the water. Ideally what I'm looking for is something like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxveoVPm5sI

I think im right but that fly on that video is a floating elk hair caddis

You need something like a balling buzzer. But you would be better just watching the leader you would spook less fish that way.
