This is a variation of the world-renowned Elk Hair Caddis, an extremely popular fly pattern that mimics the profile of a caddis quite well. However, unless tied with a giant wing, this pattern can sink easily after a take or in fast-moving water. That's exactly where this pattern comes in—a more modern version using foam to help increase buoyancy and provide an even better body profile of an adult caddis, in my opinion. This one was tied on a Klinkhammer hook with some flash to draw a bit more attention. While both are great patterns, I find myself drawn to this one because of its increased buoyancy and better ability to support droppers underneath, no matter how many fish come up and hit it. If you are stocking up on caddis patterns, give this a try!
