Sulphur Dun
The duns rarely stay on the water very long. Their wings dry fast and they depart
the water very quickly. They hatch in calm to moderately flowing water. Often the
water is smooth or slick.
These duns usually hatch from early afternoon to the middle of the afternoon.
The hatch can last a rather long time, as long as two or three hours.
Dun Presentation:
Fish the "Perfect Fly" Sulphur Dun in the slower moving, smooth water where the
Sulphurs hatch. An upstream presentation is usually best provided you can get
the fly to the trout without spooking the them.
You should approach individual fish that are rising using a down and across
presentation. Usually a light, long leader and tippet is required. We recommend
leaders from ten to twelve feet in length and of size 5X to 7X.
If you are fishing streams with complex currents, you should allow plenty of slack
in the tippet to help prevent drag. Sometimes mending the line can spook the
trout in some waters. Slack line and pile cast are necessary in some cases. You
must get the fly to the trout without alerting them of your presence.
