- Pale Morning Duns · Ephemerella mayflies
The PMD pattern imitates one of the West's most important hatches — Ephemerella infrequens and E. inermis. A pale yellow body with light dun wings accurately represents these delicate mayflies that blanket tailwaters and spring creeks through summer afternoons.
Recipe
This is one dressing. Tie it in other colors to match the hatch in front of you.

On the water
PMD hatches can be incredibly dense. Match size precisely and fish a dead drift in feeding lanes. Trout often switch between duns and emergers during the hatch.
