CDC Deer Caddis

Super Durable and Buoyant Hackle

Ok...  We completely realize that the name of this fly is completely lame and generic, but the part that matters is that it's a super buggy, buoyant, and durable caddis pattern.  We use some cool techniques to make a full CDC wing and a hackle made from deer hair.  With the dubbing, just make sure to cut the ice dub to about 1/2" and pulse blend it with squirrel in a coffee grinder.  Just two or three pulses will get it completely blended and ready to use!
