This “King of Caddis” is ruling the dry fly world with an iron fist!! In still water compounds like Hebgen Lake, Montana, or Ph.D. fish on the Harriman Ranch, Idaho, or West Slope cutthroats on Kelly Creek and the St. Joe’s in Idaho, this fly has wreaked havoc over really smart fish. The beautifully striated biot bodies, the two-stage CDC wing, and the front nose antennae give this bug the most life-like silhouette of any caddis sold, bar none. We recommend the use of Lochsa floatant on this series of flies.
She's a hot little gal with gorgeous color contrasts. From a pink tail to a light olive abdomen, she's a dead ringer for most sally hatches across the northwest. It can be fished in hard current, soft riffle, or gentle foam lines. It floats well and lures a lot of large fish to the surface. Tying session and recipe for the Empress Sally.
