If it isn't tyed with Wood Duck, it's just an emerger.

Jasper, Nice K.i.s.s tie.(kiss=keep it simple stupid) I would however say you could call this a different name as you dont use wood duck thus No wd ya get it? lol.
-
Call it whatever you want mate. LOOKS like a chironamid and the fish will take it as such, that makes it a very simple buzzer pattern. I've tied thousands over the years. Nice video though.
-
You must not be a fly fisher. lmao!

It's not a buzzer it's a mayfly! Definitely effective for imitating Baetis-complex hatches on tailwaters in the Western USA. I'm speaking from experience :D Great fly. I'm not sure I'm a fan of the modifications to original the recipe, but I'm willing to give them a shot.

its a buzzer

I love this fly! I have caught hundreds of trout on this fly especially during the fall and winter months and early spring. It does particularly well when fished as a dropper off of a glo-bug. I think it does a good job imitating a midge larvae. Don't let the tiny size of this fly fool you. I tie my wd40's with brown barred hen saddle fibers for the tail. I also tie them in sizes 20-24. I am going to try out the brown Darlon like in this video.
hmmmmmm.? looks very bare to fish a scottish water if you ask me.?

Its just a very sparse tie to imitate very small nymphs. I usually use these in sizes 20-22.
