X-Caddis in Olive - Sizes #14 to #18

Caddis are a staple food for trout and are available many months per year.

Picture in your mind an Elk Hair Caddis with the hackle removed and a poly fiber tail added - this is the X-Caddis. This pattern rides in the film and can represent any stage of the adult caddis.

It can be fished many different ways to elicit a strike. Dead drifted is most common, but twitching it, or skating it can be very exciting. Also try letting the fly get pulled under the water on a tight line and swing it around until it's below you.

Hook Sizes: #14-18
