Isonychia Emerger

[dr korn]

I'm getting ready for an upcoming fly fishing trip to the Delaware River with my son Scott by tying a few Isonychia emergers.


Matt Grobert's Iso-emerger is a simple and fun fly to tie. The fly below is tied on a size #10 Allen scud hook with only three materials; zelon for the shuck, Iso custom blend DK#25 dubbing for the body and some natural deer hair for the wings.



I like to add a front hackle of brown grizzly to the pattern to give the impression of legs.

Doug,

Cool fly; Matt Grobert has put out some excellent videos. Hope you and your son catch a bunch.

Regards,
Scott

Grobert's series on fly tying is excellent. Catch a big one for me. I'd be inerested in learning how to obtain your custom blend DK#25 body material
