paste a small bit of glue along the fly line, ( for about 2-3 inches ) and run the leader up the line and leave to dry. Or (without glue) you could heat the leader with a match in a sliding motion to seal it on when you have it placed over the line, not keeping the flame too near the line.

Fly-fish can you have two flys?

Assuming you mean fishing with two flies at the same time, yes you can as long as it is legal in the jurisdiction you are fishing. There are many lakes and rivers in some areas where only a single fly is allowed. In fly fishing competitions, where fishing more than one fly is legal, there are rules and regulations about the minimum distance between the flies must be. In some jurisdictions, fishing three flies in a tandem is allowed. The fly that is attached to the end of the line is called the "point fly." The fly(s) above are said to be "on the dropper" as they are tied to leader material that is attached to the main leader and "drop" from the main leader. In stillwater fly fishing when midges or chironomids are hatching, fishing two or three chironomid imitations in tandem can be very effective.
