Dry Fly - Having a dedicated rod towards dry fly fishing can mean everything when it comes to converting eats on rising fish. Both delicacy and accuracy are key advantages when comparing a dry fly specific rod to a do-it-all rod. We recommend a 4wt for your day-to-day dry fly fishing (excluding terrestrial and stonefly dry fly fishing). Determining the length of your dry fly rod predominantly depends on the size of the river you are fishing. Generally, in smaller rivers you want to fish a shorter rod, and a longer rod for larger rivers. The 8’6” length is the perfect do-all length for all sizes of rivers when dry fly fishing. Golden Fly Shop only carries high quality gear that we trust to get the job done. This list below is a few of our go-to gear recommendations.
