I have not done a dry fly pattern on here for a little while so figured it was time to put one up. Given we are knocking on the door to summer here and the local brown trout will be spending more and more time looking up for bugs on the surface I though this caddis variation would be a handy pattern for those of you tying dry flies. As per the name this is a caddis imitation and does a great job of this in smaller sizes. However, I like to use this in large sizes as well (think 12 and bigger) as a general terrestrial pattern. It has a great footprint on the water and when the fish are looking for anything and everything floating down stream in the surface it has proven handy. The Dirty Bug Yarn is a great material and proves its versatility with this pattern, I love the mottled coloring on a lot of the options you can get with it.
TYING NOTE: When splitting the yarn you do not have to do it while tied onto the hook as I have. You could cut it after tying in the tail/shuck then tie it back in. I simply wanted to demonstrate another way of doing it if you wanted a larger tail then using the single strand to tie the body without cutting it and tying it off again,
Cheers,
Happy Tying Everyone

DB Yarn is magical to work with. Never thought to brush it out like that. Very cool. I've never used those hooks. Gonna stop at the Blue Quill in Evergreen Colorado this weekend. Thanks for posting.

MY collection of materials is huge but I don't have the exact same hook as you but I can substitute with a similar hook . Dirty bug yarn I have 14 different colours. Nice fly though Thanx for the pattern I've already started on a dozen of them. Tight lines.👍✌

@southofnorthflyfishing 8 месяцев назад

That's all good don't have to use this hook I'm sure it will work on what you have. That's a great collection of the Dirty Bug Yarn! All the best with them hope they work well for you

Never heard of DBY, that is why I like standard patterns, will this really catch less fish with stuff everyone has. Lovely fly though++

@southofnorthflyfishing 8 месяцев назад

Thank you. Realistically the same question could apply regardless of the material I used though. It could be something you have heard of and still apply. I think DBY is a great, versatile material. It also has some cool colours and is simple to use in a range of ways I wanted to demonstrate which is why I used it for this video. Hopefully you can get your hands on some to try but if not then that's alright I'm sure if you substitute something else in it will work as well 👍 all the best with it either way.

That’s nice, but why strip half the hackle? You paid good money for that, and chucked away half of it. Maybe you NZ folks are very affluent, but more important, it really doesn’t look good wound like that.

@southofnorthflyfishing 7 месяцев назад

I disagree as far as if it looks good, I like it. But with that being said its completely subjective as far as that goes from both of us and doesn't really matter. As for the why, which I think is more important. You could absolutely tie this with a full hackle if you wanted to however gvien we have the deer hair wing which is going to assist with the floating of this fly I strip half the hackle to change the foot print on the water surface and give a more sparse silhouette. I've only used this one for a short time so can't say I've used it enough to say one way is better than the other for sure but that's my theory.
