chugbug27 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2017 Vjc I assume you mean the Caddis pupa? I didn't notice that, but I can't say for sure it doesn't... but both weighted and unweighted similar versions I tried in a pale yellow definitely caught fish this past October when nothing much seemed to be hatching Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dflanagan 0 Report post Posted November 16, 2017 I've heard of people breaking hook points off while <shudder> mashing the barb. This, however, is the first time I've heard of anyone, in any situation, breaking the hook EYE off. Too bad, too ... it's a good looking fly. Yeah, I have an uncanny ability to screw up the simplest things, it seems. Tied up another similar one and it came out ok. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

caloosa bug 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2017 Caloosa bug  I tried something like that but it swam upside down. Have yours done that?   Are you asking about the one tied on the worm hook on page 3? If so, then no. The worm hooks pretty much always ride point up. Unless you have a really buoyant material along the bend. I've had some that tend to lay in their side, but those had a strip of foam on the belly, or a really dense estaz. Even then, it would never completely flip.  If you were talking about chugbug's caddis pupa.. then check out his response. Good luck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
