    Default Theo's Polly & Pearl Caddis SBS



    A little Gink and a couple false casts will keep this thing on top all day long.


    hook - Dai Riki 320 #16
    thread - UTC 70 tan
    abdomen - dubbing tan
    rib - Krystal Flash pearl
    thorax - dubbing tan
    underwing - Congo Hair tan
    overwing - Congo Hair white
    legs - rubber fine barred tan (Krystal Flash would be cool, too)

    Part 1

    Mash down barb, attach thread at head and wrap back gap width




    tie in white CH, trim butts






    repeat with tan






    tie in rib, wrap back to bend




    dub thread, dub abdomen (take a few wraps behind ribbing) up to wing butts
