The Triple Threat Caddis, originated by Jim Slattery, is an excellent general purpose caddis pupa imitation.

Very well done, Hans. Jim showed me this pattern a few years ago and it is very effective.

Hans,
Now that is my type of pattern and I really appreciated you sharing it! My love affair with fishing Flymphs tells me that this is a pattern that will produce very well due to the large volume of material that will have a lot of movement in the water. I will be tying up several of these to put into my fly box and my confidence level is so high for this pattern that I will do at least half a dozen before even taking one to the water. Really a good looking pattern and I look forward to fishing it! Thanks
Great pattern Hans, one of favorite buggy caddis patterns. Nicely done.
Mike
Thank you Hans! I might be attempting this VERY soon.
Very cool fly. If I remember correctly, Jim posted a few years ago on the old Fly Fisherman forum about the effectiveness of the Triple Threat and his PMD Flymph (AKA the “Madison Mauler”) on the water below Quake.
Regards,
Scott
