Field Notes

A caddis nymph imitation for trout and other wary fish feeding subsurface. Fish it dead-drifted under an indicator or as part of a nymph rig in riffles, runs, and pocket water. The tan profile and barbless hook make it a good choice for pressured water and careful releases.

Pros

  • Realistic caddis nymph profile
  • Barbless hook is fish-friendly
  • Effective on pressured fish

Cons

  • Small size can be hard to see and cast
  • Not ideal when fish are keyed on larger prey
