Top 10 flies for fishing in Ukraine
Top 10 flies for fishing in Ukraine
1) Beetle Brown Foam
BEETLE BROWN FOAM - beetle - front sight No. 1 in boxes of "headhunters". Thanks to the material from which the beetle (foam) is made, the fly practically does not sink, you can fish without replacing the fly for a very long time, more often the fly does not live to be replaced and remains in the mouth of a lively carp capable of tearing off the lead during a rapid attack on the bait. If most of the dry flies need to be placed very carefully on the water, then you shouldn't be on ceremony with the beetle, on the contrary, you need to literally "stab" the fly into the water, and then the chub will not make itself wait for a long time. The best places for catching a beetle are under trees overhanging the water, near aquatic vegetation. The season of hunting for a beetle begins with the departure of the roach and ends in September-October. A characteristic pattern is that the closer to the end of the fishing season, the smaller the bug the fish needs. Not only chub bites well on a bug, but also, of course, trout. Other species of fish also do not miss such a tidbit, there are repeated cases of small pike catching a bug. It is made in hook sizes from 6 to 14.
Fish: chub, elm, trout, pike and others.
2) Red Tag
This fly was invented in the middle of the 19th century in England, and to this day it is very popular, probably there is no such fly fisherman that does not have this fly in the box. The fly is made in different versions, dry, wet, nymph. This fly is especially popular with grayling fishing enthusiasts. But the fish of plain rivers, in which there are no salmonids, are not indifferent to this fly. You never know which fish will be tempted by this fly again, whether it will be a small carp or an experienced carp, it all depends only on its size.
Fish: chub, grayling, chechon, redfin, gossip, trout.
3) Goddard Caddis Natural
A wonderful imitation of an adult hairy wing. Roe deer fur and cockerels give the fly good buoyancy. A very important element of this fly is antennae, which stick out like a natural insect.
