Sili Skin Caddis

Sili Skin Caddis

Use this as a dropper on a mature caddis, fish it across and down and when the drift is over, lift the rod, skitter the adult and in doing so, pull this caddis larva up as if it's pupa swimming to the surface. That's two great ways to get a strike in one move. Color, Natural. Caddis fly available in sizes: 12, 14, 16.

"During the spring, the steelhead will dig up the gravel and dislodge a plethura of food. The sili skin caddis gets in the dark water every time. It doesn't stay there long...there is usually a steelhead or a very hungry trout connected to it."

"This fly is an amazing imitation of a caddis larva . It fishes well dead drift under an indicator or in a czeck nymph rig. A must have on southern tailwaters."

"Sili skin caddis is an excellent pattern for any stream that holds a resident population of Hydropsychidae, which is the family of caddisflies that makes up over 60% of the fishable caddis in most trout streams of North America. Fish this pattern at the head of pools below a stretch of fast riffle water for the best results. It is a great pattern for trout, steelhead and salmon.
Good angling!"
