    During the hatch I like an elk hair caddis with an antron trailing husk. I dress it heavy so it'll sit down in the film like a stranded emerger. Later I'll clip the husk off (or leave it off when I'm tying) and skip it accross the surface like an egg laying female.
    If it swims and eats, it'll eat a fly.

    I'm very partial to the A.C. Caddis. It's not particularly easy to tie, but it's really not as hard as it first appears after you tie a few. I'll fish it during a grannom hatch usually.

    During a hatch ? A softhackle emerger, never a dry
    The simpler the outfit, the more skill it takes to manage it, and the more pleasure one gets in his achievements.

    X-Caddis. Trout just love it, it's easy to tie, and it floats and floats.

    CDC & Elk, Iris Caddis, X2 Caddis. Going to give Wally's (Longs for Cutts) Clacka Caddis a serious test drive this summer.
