Yellow Sally Emerger
Probably one of the more overlooked hatches out there, however, those who fish it find it to be extremely successful.
While they are a stonefly, the emerger replicates a “mutant” and should be fished as such.
Fish under grassy banks, or trees, anywhere these bugs might have crawled out of the water prior to hatching.

Theresa Newman –
This fly performed well in a grassy area near a creek. The action matched the natural hatch and caught several trout. A solid choice for emerger patterns.
Trevor Hunter –
Fished it during early morning under willow trees. Got a few bites, though not as consistent as expected. Still worth trying for stonefly hatches.
Peter Harris –
Used it in a wetland with dense vegetation. Caught a large brown trout that was actively feeding on emergers. Highly effective in the right environment.
