Soft-hackle 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2007 Randy, That's a great looking fly. It should work very well. Nicely done. Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madkasel 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2007 That doesn't look like it'll catch fish... I think you should tie up a couple dozen in various sizes and mail them to me. I'll use 'em to ahhhh... make a windchime. Yeah... that's it. Seriously, though... very nice tie. I had a guided day on the water and fished the whole day with a small caddis pupa as a dropper to a big scud... the caddis took almost all the fish.

Randy Taylor 0 Report post Posted November 1, 2007 I did some experimenting with this fly. I tyed it on a larger hook,and tyed the body in a orangish color to imitate an october caddis.On the rogue river near grants pass,last week i caught a 28 and 26 inch steelhead using this pattern.
