Been trying to take some new photos of flies underwater/on the water, here’s a first example featuring my own SRM emerger. Think it turned out pretty cool actually 🙂
Here’s the fly out of the water:
And here’s the fly on the water:

Wonderful photos, Ulf! They show the floating view that counts on a dry fly.
I often float new dry fly patterns or variations in a glass of water. I look at them from all sides including directly below. Very useful for evaluating little details like extra wraps of hackle or different attachment points.
Thanks for your fine blog,

I am very impressed! Realistic! What material is in the body?

Thanks Joe! The body is Nymf skinn från Virtual nymf, winded in 50% overlapping turns.
All the best
