Description:
Pale Morning Dun CDC Transitional Dun
When the activity is just below the surface, tie this fly on and be prepared for some excellent fishing. Especially effective on days where the air temperature, wave activity, or over cast days impact the insect's ability to gain flight.

They can be found throughout the west on all river types and in a wide variety of river habitats. Because their hatch spans many months, trout are very selective when feeding on the Pale Morning Duns (PMD). Study rise forms and fish at varying levels (on the bottom with a PMD nymph imitation, in the substrate, just below the surface as an emerging dun, and on the surface as both a comparadun and a spinner) and match the size as closely as possible. On cooler days when the PMD experiences a very high rate of crippled and still born insects, this provides the opportunity for long drifts and excellent fishing conditions.
