We are just a few short weeks away from when we will start seeing some suphur action. I have been tying some various sulphur patterns in hopes that we will get into them at the Jam this year. I like to fish different sulphur patterns from top to bottom when the fish are really starting to key in on them. Nymphs, Wets, Emergers, Duns and Spinners can all catch plenty of fish under different scenarios. I seem to catch the majority of my fish on suphur patterns just under the surface. One of my favorite ways to fish a sulphur hatch is drop a soft hackle suphur wet fly or emerger off the bend of sulphur dun pattern. Most of the fish I have caught on the dropper but occasionally I will catch some on the dun as well. I am starting to get pumped for the Jam and hope we have a repeat of last year with some awesome sulphur, march brown and caddis hatches. Here are some of the patterns that I like to use. I didn't tie all of these flies, in fact the dun and the emerger I purchased at Spruce Creek (I think they were the only flies I bought all last year). I fished the Little J last year at the Jam on Friday evening with JF_ and did really well with the emerger pattern dropped off the bend of the hook of a dun pattern. Tight lines!
