It's the middle of summer, and you've finally finished up enough work or chores that you can run off to the river for a bit, and do some fishing. But when you pull up, you realize you haven't fished since before spring runoff, and your fly boxes are full of tiny little dry flies and nymphs. 

That doesn't seem like a problem — but it is! The bugs hatching during summer are different from what was coming off in spring, and these summer fish will be keyed in on big insects that look like they belong in Jurassic Park. Your great day of summer fishing starts to look a bit dim. 

This week on Untangled, we'll brighten that picture up by sharing a list of must-have summer fly patterns. These flies will help you put fish in the net all summer long.

You'll also learn about: 

• How to effectively fish rivers as they change year-round (going from high with spring runoff, to the low flows of late fall) 
• Fishing with nymphs and streamers from a raft or drift boat
• The best way to keep your dry flies floating 
• Sharpening fly hooks, and whether this is a tactic that'll make a difference for you
