Rosenbauer's Rabbit's Foot Emerger

No comments yet

Fishing emergers for technical trout is one of my favorite parts of fly fishing, and this pattern is one many turn to on a regular basis. Created by Tom Rosenbauer of Orvis, the Rabbit's Foot Emerger is an extremely buggy pattern that is simple to tie. Once wet, this fly can imitate both mayflies and caddisflies as they are emerging near the surface. As I stress in this video, don't be afraid to change the colors to imitate the flies in your local waters; this pattern is more of a "base" that can be modified as needed. Good luck with this pattern, especially on those finicky trout!

Featured in this video are the N304 hooks from Allen Fly Fishing; you can find those hooks and many others at the following link: http://www.allenflyfishing.com/n304-s...

Fly fishing for beginners can be difficult at first, thus be sure to stick with it and ask others for advice. If in the need for some helpful tips and other fly tying and fly fishing information, be sure to check out my "Trout and Feather" accounts on Facebook and Instagram...

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
