Dan grew up on the banks of the White River in Arkansas, where he became one of the best guides on the river. He developed quite a few patterns, with his Dan&#8217;s Turkey Tail Emerger (DTTE) being the most famous. How good is the pattern? It&#8217;s brilliant!\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">At some point just about every fly fisherman creates a fishing fly. But very few can compare to the Dan&#8217;s Turkey Tail Emerger. It&#8217;s right up there with Sawyer&#8217;s Killer Bug, the Pheasant Tail Nymph, the Elk Hair Caddis and the Klinkhammer Special. Yep, the fly is that good.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">I met Dan at fund-raising event for St. Judes Hospital in Cottar, AR. Straight off the bat, you had to like the guy. He called it as he saw it, he was exceedingly generous for giving you some flies, and he was always puffing on a cigar. In every sense of the word, Dan was a character and for me, a good friend.\u00a0I brought the DTTE back to Canada in 2004, and within two years those in the know were thumping serious numbers of trout on the fly.\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Dan developed the DTTE in 1983 to imitate as he said, &#8220;the most vulnerable part of the midge life cycle &#8211; when it is emerging.&#8221; To imitate &#8216;dark midges&#8217; the most common midges on the water, the colours in the fly are drab.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">Dan tied the original fly with a noodle (twisted, not a loop) of cream Poly Dubbing for the wing, but most tiers use a small section of cream coloured Antron, as I did.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;\">To fish a DTTE, cast it across the river and then pull it under the surface. You do not want the fly to float on the surface. It is an emerger. It has to be under the surface. Here&#8217;s one thing that makes the DTTE unique, and I have never seen this happen with any other pattern. If you cast the fly at a rising fish, quite often the fly will drift past the spot where the fish was rising and you think the fish has refused the fly. Chances are, it has not. Most of the takes my clients get, happen when the fly is a foot or two downstream of the fish. The fish will actually turn down stream and whack the fly.
