Umpqua Feather Merchants
Tracy developed this pattern as a combination Baetis nymph/Midge larva on the Bighorn
When midges are on the water think Griffith’s Gnat.
The Blindside is an excellent representation of the emergent stage of not only midges, but has been very effective during BWO hatches.
The CDC thorax and collar provide plenty of movement and lots of bugginess.
"The Immortal May was designed to be an extremely durable mayfly nymph.
A classic fly for the North Platte River with great movement in the water.
It’s a relatively “new” hatch to pursue, the insect’s population has increased dramatically over the last decade. Superior Spruce Moth floats well, has a slightly shorter and fatter profile than a caddis, and it’s overall tan/cream in color.

The Sow Chow. An excellent choice for the Bighorn! The pink and rainbow are two must haves!
The all new XC210 was designed specifically for tyers and anglers wanting a better hook for perdition style flies or for oversized bead flies.
In the early 70’s Umpqua Feather Merchants revolutionized the way business was done in the fly fishing industry, particularly in regard to the most indispensable piece of equipment used by every fly fisher...their flies! Few anglers today are aware of the impact Umpqua Feather Merchants has had on their enjoyment of the sport of fly fishing.
