Field Notes

Use this emerger pattern when trout are feeding just below the surface on emerging insects. It is a good match-the-hatch fly for picky fish in calm or lightly moving water, especially during hatches and other periods of surface activity.

Pros

  • Buggy emerger profile that imitates vulnerable insects
  • Good match-the-hatch option for selective trout
  • Versatile in a range of hatch conditions

Cons

  • Can be less effective when fish are not focused on emergers
  • Small fly can be hard to see and fish on light tippet
