Greg's Emerger

The closest legal alternative to fishing with dynamite during a mayfly hatch, the Greg's Emerger is - hands down - our favorite mayfly emerger pattern. Spot on in its imitation of a swimming mayfly nymph, the glass beadhead and hint of flashback make this fly like the Pied Piper for trout: they just keep coming! Tied in a variety of colors and sizes, the Greg's Emerger can make the difference between getting skunked or having a day for books!
