Paraloop Fuzz Caddis

Imitates the adult stage of caddisflies Unlike mayflies, adult caddis are not especially vulnerable to trout when they first hatch. However, they are long-lived (compared to mayflies), and often fall or are blown onto the river. So adult imitations work well any time of year caddis are hatching.

This pattern is based on the "paraloop" style of tying wings. For more, see the article Paraloops

Different caddis species can be imitated by using hook sizes and body colors that match the natural insect.

How to match different caddis species

Dress the fly with floatant and use standard dry fly presentations. The best places are usually near the bank, especially downstream or downwind from overhanging trees or other vegetation.
