Mother Day Drifting Caddis Swap

Recommended Posts

Lets do a Caddis fly swap for Mothers Day. The only rules other than the standard swap rules are these: It must float and it must be representative of a caddis. Dry flies, emergers, surface film flies etc are fine. Lets shoot for May 8 as a fitting due date for the Mothers Day caddis hatch.

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.

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. ;)
