Hi,
Tried an egg-laying pattern using a tightly furled Zelon “egg sack”.
Has an underwing of CDC and overwing of deer hair.

Like it, Byron. But then, you know I’m partial to anything furled, what with my twisted mind and all.

I like it a lot Byron. Could this be the Adams of Caddis. Just has such an overall buggy look.
Very nice Byron, Egg sacks can be a huge trigger to fish.
Some caddis flies lay on the surface by dipping their abdomen into the surface. If you tied this on a curved shank hook it would be an excellent imitation of this behaviour.
Cheers,

Byron- I think you’ve hit the jackpot here. Back to my vise to tie up several to take to the AuSable this week.

Very nice caddis pattern, thanks for posting it.
Byron, that looks like a winner! Could you do a step by step for us tying impaired? Thanks
Is that body made of wound CDC or just reg’lar ol’ dubbin’?
It’s an antron/hare mix. The CDC is an underwing.
Very creative. I can see explosive hook ups with that fly.
What are the antennae? When in the tying sequence do you add them? Thanks, Jeff
If you meant mine: a fiber of cock de Leon on each side . Tie in before wrapping dubbing at the tie-in point at the head.
