Gdn443 hit the nail on the head.
The good ole Bubble/Fly set up is the spincast and baitcasters "Foot in the Door" to flyfishing without having to wave the fairy wand as some call it.
I do flyfish as well so I am not stepping on anybodies toes here.
The setup for the Bubble/Fly is rather easy to arrange.
1. String your line through the center of the casting bubble making sure that the orientation is correct on the bubble.
2. Tie a small swivel to the end of the line.
3. Tie a 2 to 3 foot leader to the end of the swivel.
4. tie your fly to the end of the leader.
for added distance, partially fill the bubble with water. For added attraction, add 1/2 dozen #6 split shot in the bubble for rattle.
A good pattern to use when you cannot find a dragonfly is the damsel fly pattern. It is just like the Dragonfly without wings.
