Septober Caddis

Created by long-time local fly fisher James Garrett, this simple but sweet pattern will take trout as well as summer steelhead. We have these locally tied and use pheasant rump for hackle instead of partridge.

This fly imitates a drowned October Caddis adult, which we all know start hatching well before October. Cutthroat will often hit it on the dead drift after splatting it down on the water. Let it swing after it comes tight and you might get a steelhead or trout. Stripping it can also be effective on trout. Bottom line is that it's a versatile pattern that should be a staple in your fall selection, along with a good skater like an orange Grease Liner.
