Hi i am 16 and a begginer to fly fishing and need some help, what are the difference between wet and dry flies???
And can i use a normal coarse fishing licence for trout fishing???


Thanks,

Michael

Welcome to the art of fluff chucking Michael
Im afraid you will have to get a game permit but you should qualify for a school boy permit.

A wet fly is generally pulled at varing speeds through the water and a dry fly is to represent a fly sitting on top of the water.

You have come to the right place to ask.

I think you are ok using a coarse licence as it covers Non-migratory trout, char, freshwater fish (coarse fish) and eels

Not quite correct.

If you are aged 12 to 16 (inclusive) you qualify for the junior concessionary license at £5.
