Field Notes

This is a buoyant dry fly pattern designed to imitate a sedge/caddis. Fish it on the surface in slow to moderate currents, especially when trout are feeding on emerging or adult insects. The hi-vis post helps with tracking the fly in riffles and broken water.

Pros

  • Highly buoyant dry fly
  • Easy-to-see sighter post
  • Imitative caddis/sedge profile

Cons

  • Not suited for subsurface presentations
  • Barbless hook may require careful pressure during the fight
