>Second, dry flies are rare given extra movement. Keep in mind they represent aquatic insects that have just "hatched" and are sitting on the water drying their wings. Most attempts to provide movement to them will result in a drowned fly.

[font "Garamond"][#008000][size 4]True one doesn't work a dry fly, however I never like to miss an opportunity to attract a fish, so I while retrieving my line I do it in very small increments pausing as I go. This method has proven successful for me on a number of occasions. However, since I have never fished the bubble method, this might not work too well since the bubble would tend to create a wake causing an unnatural disturbance in the water near the fly.[/size][/#008000][/font]
