Fly tying, how do you get an elk hair caddis just right for large ripples and other problems on the water?
I have found a new hole that is very productive in large 'Bows and Whitefish, but my nymphs snag and my dry flies cannot be seen.I tied a new pattern with the brightest dyed hair, dubbing and tinsel, without leaving the true appearances of the fly. What is a bright colored caddis that is in the realistic boundaries of a real caddis, anybody with excperiance help me out? What is a good, bright colored caddis????
thanks pheasant tail,i'll look around for some indicators
You can tie a caddis anyway you want. Elk hair is a very buoyant material and if you hackle the body the fly should float even better.
I have no problem using a size 14 elk hair caddis as my dry that supports a size 16 pheasant tail as a dropper.
If you have a hard time seeing the caddis on the water try adding a post to it of hi-vis yarn where you tie in the elk hair. The trout won't see it, but you will.
If your nymphs are snagging, try using as indicator
