BigDaddyHub 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2010 Frank, I said it before, I think it would be the perfect companion to the Tellico on any Appalachian stream. Could be a new classic before you know it. Certainly gonna tie a few for my own mountain boxes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FlySlinger 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2010 Still love that one. Got a question though... who is Dorthea, and does she know you named a BUG afte David, The Dorthea was named after a small mayfly Ephemerella dorthea found in the Eastern US and the Midwest and great lakes region it is rather Smallish in stature.. Compared to other Sulfurs this Fly it is a Dry fly of #16-#18.....It hatches in May and June and is called the Pale Evening Dun or little Sulfurs an my area....Hence Sweet dorthea was my call or name for this Soft hackle Nymph...
