One of my goals this year was to focus attention to caddis flies. Ive been working on some stuff and need some input.

Nice Jim, they've got a real buggy look to them. How they fishin for ya?

Jack, I've only tried the cdc and elk and hackle dry fly and had good success (for me). The fish in the glassy pools at the LL approved. The first fly's body is a small piece of worn out camo fleece shorts wound around the hook. I was surprised at how it looked wet.

It looks like ye olde Honey Bug chenille.

Which is a good thing.

I like your hackled CDC/Elk dry. will be making some of those.

That fly came from my proportions on a cdc and elk being way off, so threw some hackle on it to make up.
