ELK HAIR CADDIS

DESCRIPTION

If you’re grading on effectiveness, simplicity, and adaptability, the Elk Hair Caddis scores an 11. Tied with just a few materials, it can be dressed up in countless ways to match specific caddis hatches. Though this is often one of the first dry flies a tyer will learn to tie, this pattern continues to be the standard by which other caddis patterns are measured.
