This is a great bottom drifter pattern. Simulates many different Caddis larva.

The Splatte Roller is maybe the best Caddis larva we have ever fished. Tremendous on all types of rigging during and before spring Brachy hatches.

This is a must have for your fly box if you fish freestone rivers like the Arkansas and Roaring Fork.

This is a perfect example of an uncased Brachycentrus larva before it pupates. Fish it deep behind a heavy Stonefly nymph in the early mornings during spring.

This bright green larva is a tight body pattern that really matches the Brachycentrus larva when it’s tethered out of it’s case. Must have for Spring hatch.

The Z Wing is a terriffic bead head pupa pattern that works extremely well on the Mother’s Day hatch.
