Timmy Emerger – PMD
For over two decades, I’ve endeavored to enhance the esteemed Mole Fly, and at last, I’ve crafted an alternative that’s notably easier to spot, demands less upkeep, and boasts excellent buoyancy.
It’s devoured by fish with the same gusto as the Mole Fly, presenting a low, flawless profile on the water.
While the Mole Fly remains irreplaceable for many, the Timmy emerges as an ideal cripple/emerger pattern, a go-to during challenging conditions.
Constructed with a blended polypropylene macrame yarn wing, a gently dubbed body, delicate wire ribbing, and precise tails, the Timmy meets their exact needs.
Applying a touch of Tiemco Dry Magic to the loopwing/leg area allows the abdomen to sit flush and maintain natural movement on the water.

I’ve used the Mole Fly for years, but the Timmy Emerger works better in light winds. It stays on the surface without sinking too fast and fish take it consistently. The wing design is subtle but visible, and it doesn’t require frequent re-tuning.

Great alternative when the Mole Fly isn’t working. The buoyancy is perfect for early morning fishing. I applied Tiemco Dry Magic as suggested and noticed a smoother float.

Fished in a windy stream and the Timmy held its profile well. Fish were actively feeding on it, and it didn’t get lost in the current like other patterns.
