La Fontaine Sparkle Pupa
When he researched caddis behavior, Gary Lafontaine actually observed Caddis fly behavior under water and designed the Sparkle Pupa fly to imitate a gas bubble formed by rising caddis nymphs. Carrying these nymphs in several colors will ensure you a successful fishing day and you'll be confident using this fly. Sizes 14, 16.

"As a novice fly fisherman, I'm glad to find good quality products from a company I trust. I'm looking forward to using this fly when the weather warms up; if I were a trout, I would bite on it!"

May 24, 2002
By: D.Bofenkamp
"I have been using this fly almost exclusively during the caddis hatch on the Owhyee River in Eastern Oregon. We tie it as our second fly about 18" off the shank of the hook of a bead head caddis or pheasant tail. It's been responsible for a lot of 20" + Browns in the last three years. My brother-in-law from Couer D' Alene, Idaho landed his biggest trout ever in April 2002 on the Owhyee, a beautiful 25" brown. He got it on a light tan La Fontaine . . . he loves the French."
