There are many great caddis dry flies out there, but Elk Hair Caddis is without doubt among the best. The wing provides decent floatation for dead drifts, but also works as a “popper” pushing water when skated along the surface. Hook quality can be the weak point in many commercial flies, which is why we wanted to have ours tied on one of the best out there: Ahrex FW 500. Also available: Elk Hair Caddis Hi-Viz.
