SSR Emerger


Fly: Harald Weidler, Photograph: Hans Weilenmann

Hook: Curved Emerger Hook like Knapek "P" Type, or similar # 16-18
Thread: UNI 6/0 Light Olive
Trailing shuck: Small pinch of marmot underfur with just a few longer hairs
Rib: Fine dark monofilament
Body: Olive something
Wing: Pinch of Snowshoe Rabbit feet underfur
Hackle: 2-3 turns of a hen badger

Note: A very effective pattern during a hatch of any olive dun when fish prefer to take emergers. The natural grease of the SSR underfur will help to keep the fly on the surface with very good visibility.
