I don't understand the flies only waters... but, some people have a hard time understanding what ARTIFICIAL means.
Just speaking for waters I am familiar with but artificial also includes no smell or flavor added. That is where the problem comes.
The stretch of river I fish is artificial and I always come across someone using those scented or flavored rubber grubs. Yes they are fake, but the added extra makes them illegal.
To me, flies only mean just that...I know people that fish flies with spinning outfits and do it very well, but I also have heard of some waters that you must present that fly with fly line and reel and rod...now that just don't make sense to me.
