So I started tying again, and am getting geared up for the sulphur swap. See my post in that thread for a couple of pics. This is a hendrickson snowshoe emerger I like...let me know what you think.

Looks like a winner. I tie something similar but with cdc wing. May have to try snowshoe hair this year too. What is the rib material? It adds some nice sparkle.

Pearl flash for the rib. I tie a lot of emergers with cdc, but heard a lot of good things about snowshoe...supposed to float like a cork!
 
Looks good!
 
Good looking fly!!

Looks good Steve. Might wanted to tie a few emergers on a curved hook. This pattern can be quite productive.
 
Yep, I do that too...copied a pattern I saw on a fly tying blog and liked the way it looked. I tie most of my emergers on curved hooks. Can't really tell from the pic, but that is tied on a curved nymph hook, not an "emerger" hook.
 
Looks great.
