Field Notes

This is a dry fly sedge/caddis imitation designed to ride high on the surface. Fish it on a dead drift or with gentle twitches when trout are keying on adult caddis or other surface insects. It is especially useful on calm water or during hatch activity where a visible floater matters.

Pros

  • Excellent floater due to dense deer hair body
  • Good match-the-hatch caddis/sedge pattern
  • Highly visible on the water

Cons

  • Can be less effective if fish are feeding below the surface
  • May require careful presentation in slick water
