Few things I know less about than fishing flies on the swing and October Caddis, although I have seen the bugs and fished dries (unsuccessfully) for trout; cool pattern, though.

hook - Dai Riki 899 #8
thread - MFC 8/0 rusty brown
rib - small wire copper
abdomen - 2/3 orange sparkle 1/3 sulphur yellow dubbing mix
thorax - mallard flank fluff dyed rust
wing - fox squirrel tail
antennae - turkey tail fiber
hackle - furnace (unless you have access to radioactive, mutant hen of a sizeable proportion, get one of the webbiest ones you can find on the top/backside of a lower-grade rooster cape)
