AKA: Brush type wings - deer hair
A very popular technique for tying emerger flies. More recently brushes have been tied from CDC as well as deer hair and both work well. The secret of course is that both materials float well.
Deer hair brush type wings are a very effective way of adding flotation to a fly just where you want it. As long as you have the buoyancy of the wing and the weight equation of the fly correct the wing will hold the fly in the surface film with the business end right in the trouts face.
