- BWO emergers · Baetis emergers
John Barr's BWO emerger is the definitive trailing-shuck pattern for imitating Blue-Winged Olives transitioning from nymph to dun. The brown Z-lon shuck, olive body, and dun hackle create a profile that hangs perfectly in the film, fooling the most selective tailwater trout.
