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.
Who said there has to be a hatch to catch fish at the surface? We designed this fly to dredge fish up out of the hatch. This is a gorgeous belly-down bug that can be fished in all water structure, even on a hard riffle at the top of a hole. It's a little like a comparadun and a little like an emerging caddis. We don't know what the fish are keying on when they eat this fly; all we know is that you will bring more fish to the surface than a stick of dynamite! Tying session for a Black Searcher with recipes for the Pink, Mahogany, Brown, Gray, PMD, and Tan Searchers.
