Found this over on a Norwegian site; similar to other Humpy/Compara-ish emerger versions, this one has a deer hair tail. Tied here as a PMD; change color/size to suit your needs.



hook - Dai Riki 305 #14 (same shank length as a standard #16 but this hook provides a wider gap)
thread - Uni 8/0 Lt. Cahill
tail - deer hair bleached
rib - x-small wire copper
abdomen - pheasant tail bleached
wingcase/wing - deer hair bleached
thorax - dubbing pale yellow

Part 1

mash barb, start thread; tie in rib, wrap to bend

Scott,
"Flymf"? Obviously it doesn't translate into "flymph" in English. Or is their idea of a flymph totally different?

Joe,

Using the trusty interweb Norwegian-English translator, "flymf" is the same in both languages. I'd have to guess the word means something different to our Norse friends.
