Craig Mathews' X Caddis: elk wing, no hackle, and a trailing shuck of sparkle yarn. It sits flush in the film like a caddis stuck mid-emergence — the cripple fish pick off first.

When to Fish It

During caddis hatches when fish flash at your Elk Hair but won't commit. The shuck is the trigger. Dead-drift it on light tippet in the film through riffle edges, seams, and tailouts.

  • Imitates: Emerging caddis with trailing shuck
  • Sizes: 16
  • Best for: Selective trout during caddis hatches
