If you fish in waterways known for caddisflies, here's a pattern that belongs in your fly box! This caddis is one that I fish to imitate the Grannom Caddis (also known in areas as the Mother's Day Caddis). This is a "new and improved" version of a previous video, and I'm sure you'll enjoy this one.
Materials:
Hooks: Hanak H450BL; #14
Bead: 3.0mm slotted (black nickel) from Hazard Fly Fishing
Thread: UNI 8/0; chartreuse
Body: Hends Body Quill (BQ-96); chartreuse
Thorax: Jack Mickievicz Squirrel X-B Blend; black/purple
Legs: CDC; natural
