CDC Paraloop Emerger

 
tied by hampe998
Fly Type: Dry,
Target Species: Trout,
Recommended Region: Central US,
Imitation: Mayflies,
Material List: Hook: TMC 206
Thread: 14/0 here but any that can be split works
Tail and Post: Antron Yarn
Abdomen: Biot
Thorax: Synthetic Peacock Dubbing
Wing: Natural dun CDC caught in split thread wrapped around yarn and pulled over the thorax
Tying Instructions: Start thread, catch in yarn tying it down leaving a little hanging out the back for a trailing shuck and an inch or so at the start of the thorax for a post.
Tie in a biot and wrap the abdomen. Split your thread and catch in the barbs from one side of a CDC feather and clip from the stem. A magic tool would be great for this if you have one. Spin your bobbin to lock the cdc in the thread. Wrap around the post as far up as the thorax will be long. Pull the cdc out of the way with one hand and dub your thorax with the other. Pull the CDC hackled post over the thorax and tie it down, clip the excess, whip finish and you're done.
Presentation Tips: Dead drifted. Tie it in colors and sizes to match your mayflies.
