CADDIS PUPAE

One of my favorite and enjoyable fly to tie. Takes a little patients but believe me its worth it.

Materials 

Hook#12 (TMC 2487BL)

Tungsten Bead Head

SLF PRISM Dubbing 

SOW SCUD Dubbing 

Vinyl Ribbing 

Scud Back 

Goose Biot

Pheasant tail 

Insert the bead head and dress the hook almost half over the bend

Tie in some vinyl ribbing 

Twist some dubbing on your thread 

Wrap the dubbing and be sure to create a nice taper

Wrap the vinyl ribbing to protect the dubbing and create the body segments. Be sure to wrap it the opposite way you wrap the dubbing

Tie in the scud back 

Tie a pair of goose biot on both side of the hook

Wrap more dubbing for the thorax and tie a pair of pheasant tail fibers 

Pull the scud back forward and tie it down. Trim of excess and you're pretty much done ..... but

You can also put some epoxy on top for a better look . 

This is not a 100% accurate imitation but it was inspired by the real thing and it does the job . 

HAPPY TYING :)
