Tactical Foam Emerger – Dry Fly

Sits in the film. Gets eaten.

When trout are rising but refusing standard dry flies, the Tactical Foam Emerger is the fly to tie on. Designed to sit half in, half out of the surface film, it imitates emerging insects at their most vulnerable stage — exactly where selective trout are feeding.

The slim curved profile, subtle flash body, and high-visibility foam post make this a go-to pattern for calm water, technical drifts, and pressured fish.

A proven choice when trout are sipping, not smashing.

WHY IT WORKS

• Foam post for excellent visibility in glare and low light
• True emerger profile that sits low and natural in the film
• Curved hook improves hook-ups on cautious takes
• Subtle flash attracts attention without spooking fish
• Reliable flotation for long, technical drifts

WHEN TO USE

• Trout are rising but refusing dry flies
• During mayfly, midge, or caddis hatches
• Calm dams, slicks, tailouts, and slow runs
• Clear water and pressured fisheries

HOW TO FISH IT

• Fish solo on a fine leader for maximum realism
• Use as a point fly with a small dropper nymph underneath
• Dead-drift for best results
• Add a gentle lift at the end of the drift to imitate emergence

QUICK TIP
