Al Troth's Elk Hair Caddis is the most fished dry fly in America: a hackled body under a flared elk wing that floats through anything. If trout eat caddis where you fish — they do — you need these.

When to Fish It

Late spring through fall, especially evenings when caddis skitter and egg-lay. Dead-drift it through riffles and along banks on light tippet, and don't fear a little drag — a skated caddis often triggers the strike. Brown and olive cover nearly every hatch.
