A simple and extremely effective imitation for a cased caddis, which abound in most trout waters year-round. Probably the most important kind of caddis imitation in fly fishing, but often overlooked. Next time you pull a twig out of the water covered in cased caddis, tie on one of these in a size to match.
This pattern features a turkey tail case, which is a spot-on imitation when wet. The turkey fibers are counter-wrapped with thread to increase the durability of the fly. A large, chartreuse hotspot behind the glass bead imitates a caddis peeping out of its little case house. a simple guide fly, but absolutely deadly for most of the year.
I tie this on a barbless, black-nickel finish, 1x short competition nymph hook.
This listing is for 4 flies. Please message with any questions or custom orders.
