Actual Caddis ![]() |
Notes: This caddis imitation was originated by Craig Matthews and John Juracek of West Yellowstone, Montana around 1980. Originally, it was tied with beaver dubbing for the body but presently Antron is used most often. The fly resembles a caddis that has a trailing shuck and when fished in the surface film is deadly. Caddis shucks are nearly transparent so it is important not to provide to much material to this part of the fly. Sierran flyfishermen Ralph Cutter, George Bouvoin, and Jan Kurahara, changed the Matthews' shuck by looping the zelon back on itself, this created a more natural bubble-like appearance. |
