Antonio's BWO Emerger

Cheech - October, 2021

This is another great fly from this series of effective Antonio's CDC dry flies. One of the keys of this fly is that there isn't a tail to fowl up how it rides in the water, and it gives a great profile of an emerging bug. This style of fly was has been responsible for many many trout to the net! If you don't tie, we have pre-assembled versions HERE!
