Description

This is a complete tying kit with all the materials required to tie 24 flies in this Stick Caddis pattern. Plus, there will be lots left over, so additional hooks can be added at a later date to get even more flies from these materials.

The humble Stick Caddis is a major staple in the diet of stillwater trout and a pattern that is deadly not only in lakes, but in rivers as well. Whilst a relatively simple pattern to tie, this very realistically imitates the natural cased caddis as it swims up through the water column, making it a very effective fly to have in an fly box. The secret to the Stick Caddis is in the antron body, which is melted slightly with a flame to bind it together and achieve the cases look. The foam protuberance acts as a trigger point, whilst also aiding the fly to ride upwards, just as the natural insect does.
