This CDC style dry fly is one of my favorite styles of Caddis dries to use. They float really high in heavy water which I like. It's also a really easy fly pattern for a beginner to learn how to tie. I'm all for keeping flies simple! I hope you enjoy the Hot Tag CDC Caddis dry fly!
The Dust Mop fly will flat out catch fish! Stocked fish don't stand a chance anymore with this pattern in your fly box. Wild fish like it too! Another great fly pattern for the beginner fly tier! Enjoy the Dust Mop!!
