Horseshoes 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2014 Did I send deer caddis? What was I thinking? Maybe not thinking, I believe with the deer they are considered a wet fly. uh oh. Now what? see if they float fishy bob maybe I didn't put on deer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fishingbobnelson 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2014 As long as it's a Caddis, it doesn't matter. However yours do have a deer hair wing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Piker20 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2014 Mine are also deer hair wing from a winter red deer shot in Rogart Highlands of Scotland. Mine definately float. I guess its the season and body position where the hair comes from but if it is hollow it floats. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoebop 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2014 Looks like we are going to have quite a few deer hair caddis. Mine are CDC and deer (an emerger style). I use them quite a bit so you can't have too many as far as I'm concerned. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vicrider 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2014 While you guys are all waiting for the emergence I have a cased caddis weighted with 8 wraps of .20 lead (that's not that heavy) to work the lower level, then when they go into the pupa stage and escape from their case I have an extra fly that Ted Trueblood developed and is for the travel from the cased bottom level to the surface before emerging. I always admired Ted Trueblood and his articles and those written about him and since the fly was developed by him it has to be a winner. Mine should go out tomorrow and for the rest of the month it's working on the Secret Santa project. More work there than I thought there'd be tho I do have a good matrix laid out to help with the sorting and wife has committed to helping with the wrapping.
