PPS:Reason for using 3M Magic Tape or the Grey Panty Hose. The underside of the Caddisfly wing, has a grey powder residue, the Magic Tape mimics this grey powder, as does the Panty Hose material



As for the seven different Caddisfly Patterns that cover almost all know Caddis, recently I posted the recipes elsewhere on the Bulletin Board in response to Waterfox request for other patterns for Elk Hair Caddis, even though the above photo, eliminated the ribbing, and replace it with a collar, for the dry fly.
