Nice tie! That would be an effective fly where I fish in the Sierra's.
Trout don't speak Latin.
Thanks! A good pattern anywhere for Caddis.
Back when I used to fish nothing but dries, the CDC and Elk was my go-to caddis pattern. Change the color and size and you can have a match for almost any caddis. Hans came up with a great fly in that one.
Happiness is wading boots that never have a chance to dry out.
It's my go-to small-stream fly, too.
Nice pattern, that’s for sure
Nice pattern. I have two he tied at SowBug years ago.
