Product advantages and highlights
The Devaux JBE17 Emergent Fly offers striking realism that particularly attracts educated and cautious fish. A genuine innovation in the Devaux range, its silhouette and natural colors make it a perfect imitation of emergence, significantly increasing strike rates. Its prolonged buoyancy allows it to remain suspended even during long drifts without becoming waterlogged. The artisanal tying, a reflection of Devaux know-how, ensures exceptional robustness, allowing multiple catches without premature deterioration. This product is the result of in-depth study of trout feeding behavior during hatches, for consistently more productive fishing sessions.
Usage tips and recommended rigs
The JBE17 Emergent Fly is ideally used for sight fishing or during peak surface activity. To maximize effectiveness, favor a fine tippet on a long leader to increase subtlety on the presentations. It pairs perfectly with a tapered leader head and a natural drift presentation. Using a hydrophobic spray will reinforce its ability to stay on the surface. This fly excels both in rivers and reservoirs and can be decisive on educated fish during late-day hatches.
