flytire 0 Report post Posted February 9 Dull Pupa Hook - Curved Bead - White Thread - Gray Over Body - Clear buzzer wrap or clear tinsel Rib - Wine, red or black thread Body - Tying thread Thorax - Rust or burnt orange thread Thread-bodied chironomid pupa patterns such as the Dull Pupa are a wise option when trout are focused on suspending pupa early in the emergence. At this time, the pupae haven't gathered enough gas beneath their skin, which makes them shiny. Bright patterns are not always the best option. Inspired by good friend Brian Chan, the Dull Pupa also uses a clear Buzzer Wrap to protect the thread color, so it doesn't change when you apply a protective coating of UV. Resin, superglue or nail polish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
