Wet Flys?

Two weeks ago I got my first Wet Fly experience, quite by accident. I was fishing a pool with a very turbulent flow. My Parachute Hopper would get drowned shorthly after touching the water. Quickly tiring of drying it ever several seconds I let it drift sub surface and stripped it back slowly, caught 8 trout in a row on a sub surface Dry Fly. Shazam, I am a Wet Fly Guy!

Y'all on the forum helped me understand what happened. I purchased two Wet patterns, a Royal Coachman and a Picket Pen. The thing I forgot to ask is, How Does One Fish Them?

Do ya use a split shot, Xink liquid or what? Upstream and drift or down stream and strip back? Strike indicator or not?

HELP! Got the flys but no gottie technique!

All of the above as to technique. The classic way us upstream and across cast and let them swing at the end of the drift. Then, there's the handtwist retrieve. Then, there's the let 'em sink and watch for the line to twitch (ponds). Then, there's fishing them like nymphs. Then...

I love to fish wet flies and thats just the thing , theres no wrong way to fish them. Just depends on what the fish are after and how they are presented. Welcome to the club.
