I am not used to tying different types of flies other than the Catskill flies and a few emergers. I guess the reason is, I have had success with the basics but this one caught my eye a while back. Since I really have a non-existent caddis fly collection, I decided to tie a few of these since they are general attractors and imitate the caddis. They can be tied in different sizes and colors. Here are a couple in size 12 and 14.
