Sulphur Dun - Nymph
The crawler nymphs inhibit the riffles and runs of the moderate to slow currents.
This type of water is found in the section of stream that falls on a slow to
moderate decline in elevation as opposed to a steep decent. They are found in a
wide range of waters including spring creeks, freestone streams and tailwaters.
This mayfly is found mostly in the Eastern U. S. and some Mid-Western Streams.
The best time to fish our "Perfect Fly" Sulphur Dun Nymph is just prior to a hatch.
The nymphs become real active and loose a lot of their normal caution.
Nymph Presentation:
You can fish the nymph imitation prior to the hatch near the bottom using a strike
indicator or on the swing. You are better off, if the bottom terrain permits, fishing
a weighted nymph right on the bottom. The fly works best if it is bouncing along
the bottom of the stream.
We use an up and across presentation in most cases. There are some situation
where the waters surface is smooth that you may want to use a down and across
presentation. It is more difficult to get close to the trout in smooth water and the
down and across cast lets you drift the fly over trout that are a good distance
from you. Just prior to the hatch, we much prefer to fish the nymph without a
strike indicator but you can catch fish using one. The choice is a matter of
preference.
