Question Wet flies/nymphs

What are the advantages of wet flies and nymphs? When do they come in handy? How about different types of line - sinking, weighted tip, etc? All of my fly fishing to this point has been with dries on a floating line. I know wets and nymphs can get down to where the fish are hanging out but I really have no idea how and when to use them. Dries are easy but these others are still a bit of a mystery. Thanks.
