As everyone else has said, slowing down and letting the fish take the dry fly is important. The fish has to actually close his mouth on the fly or you won't get the hook up. I sometimes get so pumped when I see a fish taking a dry that I forget this at first. I too mostly nymph so I always have to remember SLOW DOWN when setting the hook on the dries.
