Fly fishing has been around and has been popular since the 1800's when the first American fishers visited brooks, streams, rivers and lakes or Colonial America. The fish they caught were mainly for the evening dinner. Nowadays, fly fishing is popular throughout the world from the US and Canada to Japan, throughout Europe and in South America.

Imitation flies are used by today's anglers to simulate the look and movement of aquatic insects. The fly line of today is plastic-coated and is heavy enough to send the fake flies to the hungry fish. In other forms of traditional fishing such as those using spinner and bait rods, heavy weights on the lines keep the lures in the water.

In olden days, fly fishing was the main method of angling and was used to snare trout and salmon only. Today, bass, grayling, carp, pike and pan fish are often the 'catches of the day' when fly fishermen and women head to the rivers, brooks and lakes.

The imitation fishing flies are have different characteristics; size, color and weight, for example. These mock flies are manufactured by affixing fur, feathers, hair or any other material (which can be simulated or natural) to a hook with some thread.

Fly fishing lures have a lot of different distinctions which include weight, color and size. The lures are made by tying feathers, hair, fur or other synthetic or natural material to a hook with some string or thread. In the past, fly lures were tied with natural materials to include horsehair or wool but are now affixed with synthetic fishing wires and plastic twines.

Imitation materials used to construct the flies are now not only very common but are also very popular with all fly fishermen. The lures are available in an array of patterns, colors and sizes to imitate various aquatic insect types, small fish or other lure bait creatures. These lures are designed to attract all regional fish. Fly fishing lures are often also constructed in the patterns and colors common with the baits of the fishing region.

Fishing flies lures known as 'Imitators' look close to the actual insects or small fish of the region customarily used as bait. Some 'imitators' may not look exactly like the bait materials but their movements in the water sufficiently simulate those of the actual lures. Fish will still bit fishing flies made of fur, hair or feathers as long as these baits move like the 'real thing'.

An aggression response in a fish is the purpose of the lures known as 'attractors'. These baits are manufactured of materials in neon and brilliant colors such as chartreuse, lime, fuchsia or orange. When fish come upon the 'attractor' lures, they become agitated, the fish bite the lure and the fish get snagged.
