Emerger CDC Mayfly Trout Fly

from the Turrall Dry May Trout Fly Collection.

The Emerger CDC Mayfly Trout Fly is a must-have for any angler targeting trout during a mayfly hatch. Crafted with Cul de Canard (CDC) feathers, this fly mimics the vulnerable stage of a mayfly emerging from its nymphal shuck. Its buoyant design ensures it sits perfectly in the surface film, enticing even the most cautious trout.
Developed in the late 20th century, the CDC material revolutionised fly fishing with its natural water-repellent properties. The Emerger CDC is renowned for its lifelike appearance and effectiveness, making it a staple in fly boxes across the UK..

- Fishing Techniques.
The Emerger CDC Mayfly is best used during a mayfly hatch when trout are feeding just below the surface. To maximise effectiveness, present the fly with a dead-drift technique, allowing it to float naturally with the current. Use a light tippet to ensure a delicate presentation. Position yourself upstream and cast slightly above the feeding trout, allowing the fly to drift into their feeding zone.
For retrieves, employ a gentle twitching motion to mimic the struggling emergence of a mayfly. This can entice strikes from trout that are hesitant. Adjust your tactics based on water conditions, ensuring the fly remains in the top few inches of water.

Key Seasons - when is this

Dry May Trout Fly

most effective?
The Emerger CDC Mayfly is most effective during the late spring to early summer months, typically from May to June, when mayfly hatches are at their peak. This period is ideal as trout are actively feeding on emerging insects.
Focus on overcast days with mild temperatures, as these conditions often trigger more significant hatches. Early mornings and late afternoons are prime times, as the light is softer, and trout are more likely to rise. Keep an eye on local hatch charts to match the fly to the specific mayfly species emerging in your area.

How does the Turrall Emerger CDC Mayfly Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Emerger CDC Mayfly fly is designed to mimic the crucial stage of a mayfly's life cycle when it transitions from nymph to adult. This stage, known as emergence, occurs when the nymph rises to the water's surface to shed its exoskeleton and become a dun. The fly's design, featuring buoyant CDC feathers, replicates the vulnerable, half-submerged state of the emerging insect.
Fish, particularly trout, target this stage as the mayflies are momentarily trapped and unable to escape, making them an easy and nutritious meal. The Emerger CDC Mayfly's realistic appearance and movement effectively entice fish during this prolific feeding period.
