Your fly should be the only thing the fish sees; make it the right one. At Tom's Outdoors, we stock fly fishing flies from Fulling Mill, MFC, RIO and Category 3 Fly Company - We handpick flies that are suitable for use in our local area, around Australia and across the ditch (or dutch as our Kiwi cousins would say).

There are three main types of artificial flies in freshwater trout fishing, Dry flies, Nymphs and Wet flies (aka streamers) that anglers use to represent most of what trout eat. Dry flies : Designed to stay ‘dry’ and float on the water's surface, either representing an insect that has ‘hatched’ out of the water, like a Mayfly-Dun or a Caddis, or representing an insect that has fallen onto the water (terrestrial insects) like a Grasshopper. These flies are generally fished drifted along naturally in the current. Nymphs : Represent the aquatic juvenile phase of a water-born flying insect, like a Mayfly-Nymph, Caddis-Grub, or Stonefly-Nymph, and are fished throughout the water column from just under the surface film to the bottom, sinking with the aid of built-in or external weight. Nymphs are generally drifted naturally with the current, as well as being given some small movement underwater from time to time. Wet flies (or Streamers ): Fished below the water's surface, these flies often imitate larger invertebrates like crayfish (yabbies), mud-eye, and damselfly, as well as larger vertebrates like frogs, baitfish, and even other small trout. They are generally fished quite aggressively through the current to imitate the darting fleeing nature of these prey items. HOW TO CHOOSE A FLY The three main things to consider when looking at selecting any fly are Profile, Movement, and Colour, in that order. The profile of the fly is one of the first things that a fish sees from a distance and will let them know if they are looking at viable prey; you want to match the size and shape of the food item
