This was recently discussed. See below for more.

Favorite sulphur emerger and dry patterns

The DNA was discontinued several years back. I got some in a bargain bin for 2.15 or half price. Depending on its translucency super hair, mirror flash or fishair may be a good substitute. They may be discontinued also as it is difficult to keep up with the synthetic offerings. I am sure there...

I hear ya. You and everybody else. I found it pays to tie different styles. No one pattern is Death Ray. It can be a difficult hatch on pressured water.

I posted this before. I’ve used this with success on Spring Creek, Spruce Creek, Little J and Yellow Creek.
Tail/ shuck- grey Antron yarn
Body- sulphur yellow dubbing
Wing- muskrat or grey rabbit fur from a zonker strip
Legs- dun dyed mallard
Head-orange fur
Thread- Uni Light cahill
Tie in size 16 on scud hooks

Been using this pattern for thirty years. It can be adapted to all mayflies using colors corresponding to a particular species. For smaller species like a BWO, I tie them in 18 and 20 but use a thread body instead of a dubbed body.
