rockworm 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2019 I like the pattern very much. (But maybe a bit sparser than your example.) I may adapt this one to the caddis is my region. Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poopdeck 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2019 I like the pattern as well. Way to much hackle and hair going on so scaling down would be in order for me. Another very nice SBS. I shall tie this one day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
