Sugar Cube Emerger

No comments yet

Another fly in the beginner series. This time we're tying a Sugar Cube Emerger, or suspender buzzer. It's a fairly easy fly to tie using only a few materials but it's very effective, especially on still water trout.

Hook: Light weight curved hook like a Kamazan B100 or Tiemco 2487 in sizes 10-20
Thread: Uni 8/0 or UTC 70 denier
Tag: Flat gold, silver or pearl tinsel
Rib: as tag
Abdomen: Dubbing of your choice
Thorax: As abdomen
Head: Plastazote foam cut into a strip, the size will depend on the size of your fly.

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

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.
