here are a few tricks of the trade that
many pro fishermen want to keep a se-
cret. The Float-N-Fly is one of
them. A first glance, a Float- N-Fly looks as if it would be a small fish
attractor or a lure for a species other

Let’s think about it. How many times
have you heard about crappie fishermen or
trout anglers using small lures to hook into
a double-digit bass byaccident? It happens

and it’s no accident. It is the real deal and
learning the technique will help to put fish in
the boat under any conditions.
