Your just not trying, tie a peice of clear fishing line onto a piece of stick, than tie something on to the fishing line that looks like a fly, then dangle it in front of the Dragonfly

Could i use a fishhing fly without a hook .. like the bright coloured ones that whiz round

Yep! Thats the ticket, Dragonfies are hunters, so they will chase it if you danggle it in front of them

Good try Kay

 

Dragonflies often have favourite resting sites and flight paths, so if you watch them for a while you can track them easier.
