WOT 207: Danny Lane. Part 1: Fly Design and How Your Dry Fly Rides

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Danny Lane from Idaho Falls, Idaho.  Danny grew up fishing in the ponds around Boise as a child and became fascinated with fly fishing early on.  After leaving his hometown for a change of pace, he finally found himself in the fly shops rivers of Eastern Idaho, when his wife’s job brought them to the banks of the Henry’s Fork River.  Danny was guiding shortly after and is a signature fly tier for Umpqua Feather Merchants.  In Part One of our talk we discuss how Danny goes about testing and designing a fly for function, the importance of a dry fly’s silhouette on the water, and how to think outside the box when you’re in your fly box.Learn More:ThreeRiversRanch.comInstagram: @DanielJamesLazyREAD: WADEOUTTHERE | The Two Best Times for Experimenting on the RiverREAD: WADEOUTTHERE | Fly Selection.
