HALO Caddis Larva…#14-#16…
Workin’ on some patterns for Spring…
PT/TB ![]()
Very nice! Looks small - size 18 or 20?
Byron,
That is a size #14…I am going to tie up some in Amber, in #16, as a Pupa for a bug that comes off on the East Walker River here in CA in May and early June…I am using this:

Which allows the thread underneath to glow…interesting stuff, best suited to #10-#16…
PT/TB
I would fish that on the Madison this summer; cool fly.

Scott
Don’t have any of the Halo Wire so I took some olive micro tubing, inserted copper wire in it and wrapped it on a #20. May have to play around with different color combinations and try them out on some tailwater trout in April:
