Don Stracener 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2006 THAT'S A GREAT LOOKING FLY. :yahoo: I'm not sure but it looks like you got a weave going on there? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spanky 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2006 Yup, it is a woven green caddis. Got the idea from a step by step that duckydoty did and modified with soft hackle and turkey biots. Not sure yet how it will do on trout but bluegills love them. I think that the segmented look that the weave gives adds a lot. They are weighted slightly and are killer on a strip retrieve.
