FLYFISHING.BG RECOMMENDSWhen tying emerger patterns, use the darker shades to create the trailing shuck and gently tease out the last few millimetres of the fibres with a dubbing brush or Velcro strip. The resulting semi-transparent effect closely imitates the empty shuck left behind during an insect's emergence, adding a highly realistic finishing touch. |
