Note: My favorable fly when Caddis are hatching especially Hydropsyche. It has proved its effectiveness many times and I caught my biggest rainbow, close to 12 pounds, on it. Present it sligthly downstream close to the other bank and let it jump an skate like the real insect. It's amazing how one can attract fish with it when you move it right. The combination of the foam bubble with the CDC Hackle make the fly almost unsinkable.
