Elk Hair Caddis
5x7, soft pastel
This elk hair caddis is a fly that is a really big winner when it comes to it's popularity with trout fishermen. As my husband says, this tie is the simplest to tie, one of the most effective in creeks and rivers but...one of the ugliest of ties. Alas, some flies are just...sorta...ugly.
I had hoped for better painting results. But alas, I don't think I did it justice. I'm now wishing I had painted the background black or a dark brown. Oh well....there's always tomorrow!
