Yes you can and there are a few ways to do it. You can use bobber stoppers to hold a casting bubble a few feet from the fly and it will add enough weight to cast the fly (remember to use fly-floatant on the fly if you want it to sit on top of the water like a dry fly) and it can be done. It will not be AS effective as a fly rod, but it will work. For wet flies, you can drop the fly down on a swivel and use a split shot at the end of the line to bounce it on the bottom. Both ways are not as effective as using a fly rod, but it is a quick way to use flies on a normal rod and reel.
It's pretty simple. All you gotta do is thread the fishing line of choice through the highest eye and go all the way down to the reel. Tie a knot around the reel and start reeling it in. You might want to hold it a little tight right above the reel. This helps it keep from birdnesting, or coming off the reel and tangling up really bad. Hope this helps! Southernfishing101.webs.com
