Tip
Tip: Fish two flies to cover depth vertically, not just across the river
How to do it: Fish one fly below and one emerger above to imitate insects rising through the water column
Mistake it fixes: Covering only horizontal water with two flies
Why it works: Insects rise vertically. A vertical two-fly rig covers the whole column, so it finds fish feeding at any depth during emergence.
When it matters most: Emerger fishing
