An artificial fly or fly lure is a type of fishing lure, usually used in the sport of fly fishing (although they may also be used in other forms of angling). In general, artificial flies are an imitation of aquatic insects that are natural food of the target fish species the fly fishers try to catch. Artificial flies are constructed by fly tying, in which furs, feathers, yarn, thread or any of very many other materials are tied onto a fish hook. Artificial flies may be constructed to represent all manner of potential preys to freshwater fish, freshwater and saltwater fish, including Aquatic animal, aquatic and terrestrial animal, terrestrial insects, crustaceans, worms, spawn (biology), spawn, small baitfish, reptiles, amphibians, mammals and even birds.

Flats Fishing
Flats fishing is a form of recreational fishing where anglers target species of fish specifically in shallow, wide littoral portions of a body of water (typically saltwater) known as "flats". History While fishing shallow areas is not a modern invention, flats fishing as it is known today was developed in the 1940s in Florida and the Bahamas. As this style of fishing has gained popularity, so has its exposure in fishing related media. One example includes a flats fishing specific television series, ''Flats Class'', created by World Fishing Network. Methods Fishing on flats is often done with baits, lures or light spinning tackle, or by fly fishing. Weather changes, such as barometric pressure and ambient temperature may affect anglers' success due to effects weather has on fish feeding patterns and tide levels. Other factors contributing to an anglers success in catching fish may include sunlight and wind. Flats fishing can be done by wading, form various types of boats includ ...
