The Floating Fly
Malcolm Greenhalgh
The author’s own, often controversial, views on fishing with the so-called dry fly. The Floating Fly deals only 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 named his first book The Floating Fly.
'A traditionalist Malcolm is not, so what you get here is pretty much where floating fly fishing is at today, together with a detailed examination of how we got here, looking at the two thousand years of fitful progress that lies behind us - particularly the advances that have been made since Halford . . . There is quite a bit on tactics, kit and a concise selection of recommended flies that I would certainly fish with.' - Andrew Herd, Waterlog
