The Floating Fly

by Malcolm Greenhalgh

Written in response to a river keeper's comment that there had been no advance in dry-fly fishing since Oliver Kite, Malcolm Greenhalgh takes up the story of the 'dry' fly and brings it up to date. 'The Floating Fly' contains the author's own, often controversial, views on fishing with the so-called dry fly, dealing with imitating winged insects that are floating on or in the water surface in exactly the same way that real flies do. It is perhaps no coincidence that Halford, the father of the dry fly, also names his first book 'The Floating Fly'.
