Notes:
Designed by Rick Anderson, owner of Fly Fishing Specialties in Citrus Heights, CA. This fly is solely distributed by Montana Fly Company and sold through a number of local dealers throughout the Sierra. The fly has become a popular caddis pupa/emerger pattern. The weighted bead head provides a good pattern for a euro rig or a dry-dropper combination. The soft hackle imitates the emerging nymph and is particulary effective on the swing or with the rise of the rod tip at the end of the swing.
