Caddis
Easy - 1-3 Min
Coldwater
For the simple reason that this pattern is so simple, and has very few material, there is no substitutions to be made.
This pattern is difficult to get a variant from because it is so simple and straight forward. Stick to the recipe for the best results.
The Peacock Elk Hair Caddis is a great choice for those places that have dark body caddis. The simple look, and the fact that it rides flush on the surface make it a killer pick for stubborn fish. Setting this fly down subtly is like ringing the dinner bell, they’ll never know what hit them.
Fishing this bug by itself will yield the best results as far as the way it rides, and the amount of fish it fools. When dealing with calm water, spooky fish, or both is a perfect time to pull this pattern out of your arsenal. This fly in smaller sizes is also a great choice for high country brookies and cutthroat in small stream situations.
