Title: Bug Flies
Post by: Boatman1202 on January 21, 2023, 04:52:04 AM
Does anyone use bug flies for fly fishing and how do they work ? My daughter got me some for Christmas.  https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FFVSSYN/?coliid=INJB5JM6SOM05&colid=3P9ONSYLMUADN&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1

technically, any kind of molded plastic replica is specifically NOT A FLY
pretty lures -- I'm sure you can cast 'em w/ flyrod & they'll work just fine  ;D
just don't do it in restricted Fly-Only waters -- you might get an unjust fine  :(
check the regs
