    Default My variations on the X-Caddis. A size #16

    I might explain. I find that when flaring the hair and tying off in the "normal" way, the "wing" material is flared too high. I prefer a lower profile wing, similar to the real caddis wing. Finishing with a half-bullethead calms down the flaring hair.
