Mother's Day Caddis

I have always had alot of luck with a sparse EHC (style) tied with Chuck hair vs the elk and grizzly hackle tied gape length. I add a slight chin to the pattern to help flare the head.

Going to give Doug Korn's Spent Wing Caddis a shot if the Grannom's are out back here in the east:

Doug has an excellent pattern.

Here is what I've traditionaly used. With good success. I will usually V-notch the bottom.

Good-looking fly Alan. I'm not sure how you tied it.
Care to give a short bullet list of steps?

I'll post a step by step, but I'll do it in a new thread. "Down Wing Bullet Head Parachute". It may also be another technique you could use to tie the ones you have above.

Cheers,
A.
