I Need a New BWO Emerger Pattern

[Longs for Cutts]

The link Scott posted is the changeup fly to this, which is always my first choice when BWO are around:

The LTD is my favorite Emerger for most any hatch.

I've had very good success with the following:

Mustad 3906B or equal size 18 or smaller
Olive or whatever thread something that blends
Woodduck flank tail
Pheasant tail body ribbed with fine gold wire
Couple of turns of grizzly hen hackle

Rather simple......but isn't that usually best?

Even though it's a cripple, this one worked for me:



Here's the video by someone who knows a thing or two about them.

Craig Mathews also has an emerger video that may work for you (I don't have any 1st hand experience)

Is black polypropylene yarn the same as the black EP Fibers?

Bruce,

Tied it with black Congo Hair; the only difference I've found between it and EP fibers is price (Congo Hair is about 1/3 the cost).

Hi,

Personally I would try a soft hackle, something like a size 16 snipe and olive, or moorhen and olive would be worth a shot. John Scott has tied an olive version of a water cricket which he reported was good during BWO hatches. I submitted the water cricket as a FOTW a few years ago and you can find it in the archives.
