appalachian angler (tn.) 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2004 Very nice tye! One of these days I'm gonna figure out them loops wings. I imagine that cdc keeps the fly right in or below the film? A.A. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fish 0 Report post Posted September 28, 2004 That is a real beauty of a fly. I am going to try that on the brookies next year. I had great success with the CDC elk hair caddis in 2004 but I think your cdc caddis will be my 2005 go to fly. Have you had much success with it?

flyman 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2004 Thanks for the compliments. I was thinking the wings would make the fly float just in, or just under the surface film. It's a Oct caddis imitation. They leave their pupal shucks a couple days before they hatch.They are just floating and drifting around in the current. Making them easy prey for the trout. They are an important food source this time of year in the southeastern trout waters. I've had good luck with a simple version like this one in the past. I usually fish it as a dropper behind an adult imitation. http://www.myfishingpictures.com/watermark...SCF0370-med.JPG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
