wschmitt3 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2015 The other day I was at the L.L. Bean store in Lebanon, NH and saw a fly there called the Overley's Spotlight Emerger, I really liked the looks of it but wasn't really hot for the parachute style so I combined the elements of it that I liked (maraibou body, sparkle shuck) with the elements of the quigley's cripple and I subbed in a snowshoe wing. After I took the picture below I float tested it and didnt like how it floated so I cut down the hackle on the bottom and now it sits very nicely on the surface. Its funny how the white snowshoe wing disappears against my skin. Now to tie a few more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PT/TB Nice work...lift and drop or dead drift ?? Retrocarp, I fish these dead drift, with a Leisenring lift and swung. The pattern has lead or lead sub. lashed to the sides of the shank ( I coat with Zap-A-Gap). In still water, I strip and lift in short bursts. It really does "wobble"...
