I know I posted this in the past, but it's been a good one for me when swung during the hatch

8-) Love the body on your elegant tie!!

I tied yesterday's ginger hackled emerger after reading this on Troutnut...

"Note that this species changes color dramatically after it emerges, and imitations of egg-laying adults should be a different color from imitations of emergers. Emergers have pale blonde, almost off-white wings and bright green bodies, while the egg-laying adults have light brownish gray wings and medium green bodies."

It was to compare next week with this earlier version to fish deeper.
