Sulfur duns on the water are a glorious sight, but the nymphs are often more numerous.

We have posted hundreds of fly-tying videos over the years, and one of the problems with this format is that posts fall off the front page pretty quickly. If you want to see them again or find them for the first time, you need to search for them. Because it’s sulfur time in many parts of the country, I figured I’d pull together a bunch of patterns that you can use to make the most of the hatch. So whether you’re looking for a good nymph, emerger, dun, or spinner pattern, we’ve got you covered below. Click the link beneath each video for the full post and the fly recipe.
