River Fly Fishing
Submitted by Spinnerak on Wed, 2011-04-06 19:30
One of the staff at bluewater was telling me that he could outfish anyone using fly gear on species like bream and flathead.
I was baffled as i have only every seen 2 fly fishermen in the Swan.
I have my own fly gear, but what flies would work on these species, and where can u get flies from?
Anything would be helpful as i only have a fly combo because i was in Scotland for a few weeks.
Thanks,
Andrew

Not easy to answer
Mate, not a simple question. Salt water or river fly fishing usualy requires different types of fly line .Sinking lines are mostly used.
Fly's are shrimp or baitfish style (clowsers , decievers) Some of these fly's are heavy and require shooting head type lines.
You realy need expert advice. Fly world in Maylands is a great place to start, nice guy in there and has always help'd me out.
Blue water Morley also has gear and advice.
