I also tied one cutting the tip off of the CDC puffs, but it just ended up looking like an RS2. I actually kind of like how leaving the tips makes them look like unfurling wings. @Toothy First off let me say that those were both very nice ties. I pick from Rene's playbook quite often too. Thanks for the update about the RS2-ishness of those emergers when you cut the butts off the puffs. That short wing is on my to do list for the pink alberts (Epeorus) for this summers trip to YNP and Last Chance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is a very effective fly and catches a boat load of fish. Decided to try experimenting with CDC in place of duck quill. Materials: Tail: Wood Duck Abdomen: TroutHunter Hendrickson pink dry fly dubbing Rib: fine gold wire Wing: CDC and CDC Puff Legs: Partridge: Thorax: TroutHunter Hendrickson pink dry fly dubbing Thread: 8/0 UNI Camel Nathan That's awesome, I've seen people do origami wings with CDC also.
