Field Notes

Use this dry fly when trout are feeding on adult caddisflies at or near the surface. It works well on riffles, runs, and pocket water where a natural insect drift is important.

Pros

  • Realistic caddis imitation
  • Good surface presentation for trout
  • Simple, proven dry-fly pattern

Cons

  • Best only when fish are looking up
  • Can be hard to see in low light or rough water
