vicrider 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2016 I'll play your silly game. I'll do the famous in Europe "Swimming Caddis". It requires those small hearing aid batteries for power but I'll provide the first two batteries. Two batteries should keep it swimming through a weekend of fishing if currents aren't too violent, making it use more power to go upstream. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A fly that'll float two batteries now that must be some dressing!!!. I know the fly. It represents the Godzilla Caddis. It's made out of lots of craft foam in size 1/0. Only downside to this great fly is that you need to fish it on a 9wt or larger. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
