Klinkhammer Emerger

The Klinkhammer Emerger is a style of fly tying using a parachute post. The fly sits low in the film and the abdomen hangs under the film of the waters surface. This imitates an insect trapped in the film. Very effective emerger pattern in smaller sizes. Easy to see on the water.

Both Videos are excellent. You will learn nuances by viewing both.
