Characteristics of Dry Fly Hook Sets
Dry fly hook sets require different timing based on the type of water, fly type, and fish behavior. The process of setting the hook on a dry fly involves picking up slack and adjusting to the speed of the fish's eat. Matching the fish's pace in slow water to provide the right hook set, while in fast water, quick reactions are essential.
