Above Photo: A TMC 212Y #17 is a wonderful hook for tiny emerger patterns. (click on any photo for enlargement) In Part 1, I covered the adult sulphur and its merits in its more traditional pattern form. I used a hackle collar in an X-wrap configuration and maximized Kapok to achieve a high-floating abdomen. Again, at smaller microdun sizes, these combinations prove deadly for spooky technical quarry. Now, looking at sulphur emergers specifically, CDC loop wing configurations at smaller sizes, we address more technical applications. Using materials in a sparse and conservative way keeps things relatively wind-resistant. By wind-resistant, in other words keeping bulk down so 6x tippets and smaller can function in cadence with the fly size. Keeping the bulk down allows you to cast finer tippets, especially when facing the slightest breeze with a 2 or 1 weight line. I always consider my delivery method as fly-specific; the fly drives the decision-making process for the leader and tippet, ...
