  • I don't know but it looks alot like a caddis to me. Isn't that the point? Not what its is called but what it can emulate.

  • In the video he uses a mallard feather but at the end it recommends a blond hen pheasant flank tip.  Which is better?

  • what kind of bodkin/scissor is that?

  • @aigaki85 Both are great, and its a easier to get of hold of a hen pheasant then a mallard hen. Don't forget, you can use any feather that has the same shape.

  • A.K., I've been reading about you in John's books. I was already a fan before I even found this video. I'll be watching for more posts from you. Respond if you read this post.

  • Gotioz

    You're right - that is a Europe 12.

  • Hate to break it to you Gotioz, but the europe 12-from what I know and researched-is tied with a parachute hackle, and with or without a tent style wing.

  • i know right? i cant find one anywhere!

  • He makes it looks so simple. :| I wish it was that easy for me. That brings up the statement "practice makes perfect".

  • hate to break it to u guys but that fly is called europe 12 and its not an imitation of a dead caddis. its famous all over europe and actually its the best fly ever. the trout, rainbow and the grayling they all love it:D
