Experimental Caddis Patterns

[Troutsource]

I've been messing around with glass beads and came up with these which I've yet to try, but hope to do so this weekend on the American.

The top one has an extra clear glass bead on top that's hard to see, to represent the air bubble.

They should work on any of our Valley rivers......

What hook and what size is it?

You could probably swing them or indicator them.


Let us know what happens.....

Bill, it's a size 14 and I caught one dink on it Sunday. However, it was my top fly while swinging, which is the fly that usually gets less action (bottom fly, an olive Dirty Bird type pattern, landed 3).
