... two waterfront October Caddis units on scenic Northern Idaho freestone river.



Actually, these are not for rent - but they could serve as models for a cased October Caddis, if you are thinking about creating something along those lines. The pic doesn't clearly show it, but the walls of these cases are very thin, and they are surprisingly sturdy.

Finding these was really strange. They were just sitting on the nearly flat surface of a rock about a foot away from the current high water mark and a good foot above it. The only way they could have gotten there, I think, is being deposited during runoff, which has been on the wane on this crick for several weeks now. But how they managed to come to rest in that particular spot and how they managed to stay there for who knows how long is fascinating.

Thinking about maybe supergluing the outside and then epoxying a hook inside. Would nymphing with that kind of set up be considered bait fishing ??
