What fly fishing flies do you ACTUALLY need in your fly box? And how do you know which ones to choose? Is there some sort of secret that we're just not telling the fly fishing masses? Not really. Knowing what flies to take with you to the water (so you don't end up hauling 1,000 flies every time) comes with experience. But on this episode of Untangled, we're going to short-circuit that experience and give you all the info you need RIGHT NOW to always pick the right fly. We will also dive into some fly tying, fly box organization, and other beginner related questions.
You'll also learn about: How to tell emergers apart from dry flies, what to do when you get snagged, how far up river you should cast when fly fishing, Spencer's recommendations for fishing sunglasses, and why your knots break.

I was able to get three great sized browns on the Ogden this morning. Using a Chernobyl ant and size 16 olive caddis nymph. You're right know the hatch and keep it simple. Two boxes with precise flies is a good idea! I have heard the black UFO midge is great on the Provo
Great tips, nice video, thanks for taking the time to post !
Thanks!
watching from Australia as an up and coping fly fisher and fly tyer. Ive been struggling to find a dedicated hatch chart, but ive been using both your videos, old forums and assistance from the local fly shop, hoping to get on some fish this spring cheers!
How many different colors for your Elk Hair Caddis? I have an entire box just with EHC of various size and colors.
Lol, so many but i swear I only use olive because it always shreds!
I only ever have tan, dark brown, and olive. I haven't needed to go too far off that.
Currently here in Pa the tricos have been over for a hot minute rite now #22 sulphurs #20;bwo and #12:slate drakes are the menu ,#16 tan caddis are sporadic ,and of course terrestrials
People are getting thier butt kicked up in Ny lower Catskills
Hi that show really must have rung true with so many anglers! I’ve got about ten fly boxes which I regularly take out with me each time I go fishing. But I am going to use your approach and see if works for me. I listen to your show regularly in the UK and enjoy the humour mixed with information
Thank you for all the hard work you put into making the content. Regards David
I really appreciate it, thank you. And I'm stoked to hear from someone across the pond! We have a surprisingly large audience over there.
Very good timing Spencer. Just putting together my Fall boxes and you given me some ideas. Cheers
Go catch some now!
There are Hexegenia in the west. Northern California which is also home to Fall River Brewery's Hexegenia Ale!
Huh. I didn't know that. You learn something new every day!
@@SpencerDurrant The Hex hatch on the Fall River and Lake Almanor are epic!
No wet flies?
Hey Spencer it’s me again😂 I just wanted to tell you that I finally went fly fishing for the first time last Sunday and I actually caught a couple fish! All im gonna say is I couldn’t have done it without your advice as well as Alex’s. I’m going again this Sunday with a couple of friends and I can’t wait! You guys really got me hooked 😂
That's fantastic! Stoked to hear it. Thanks for sharing!
Old-guy DNA? Really. I've been a fly angler since 1965, and it's a good thing I have Old-Angler DNA. Experience is key. I've fly-fished all over the world, my favorite places are off the coasts of Finland, Norway and Sweden anywhere in the Great Barrier Reef. Fly fishing isn't only about trout and salmon, I suppose for beginners it could be, but there's a lot more action catching a small pike or small mouth bass than there is on a standard sized trout. And let's face it, tossing a tandem fly with your 9WT, your back to the wind, for Great Trevalli or Barramundi is a lot more exciting than the standard freshwater fish you catch on a 5wt. Using your imagination on what you target can be great fun!
We are all so impressed.
Well said
