Hi Everyone,

In this weeks video I’m tying Hans Weilenmann’s iconic CDC & Elk. If you like the video please hit the like button and hit subsicribe I’m going to have a new video coming out every week. Also, if you have anything you want to see from flies to materials/tools and set up let me know.

HI,
Nice job on the CDC & Elk. Are there two entities similarly named? “Designed to deceive” and “Designed 2 Deceive”?
Thanks
PS I once asked Hans why he named it CDC & Elk when he actually used deer hair…

Hi Byron,

Yes two separate entities. What did Hans say?

He said everyone identified the Elk Hair Caddis as the Elk Hair Caddis, whether tied with elk hair or deer hair, thus, the Elk Hair CDC, even though Hans ties it with deer hair.
